29What happened to all the comments?
27Mods? I think a lot of people find this dude insufferable.
13I can see how he may come across like that. He seems like a cross between a confident go-fuck-yaself New Yorker and the Onion News Network's best ever reporter, Michael Falk. https://youtu.be/D04wb7P_v-4

Previously there was one top level comment that said something like "don't give this guy views", which was heavily downvoted and all other comments were a reply to that comment.
I assume the person deleted their comment.
12We need better modlog searching so we can better know when comments are removed.
9No idea, wondering the same thing myself. I can see most via a regular browser while not logged in, but it’s obvious some are missing. It’s possible the commenter I replied to deleted their comments, got banned, or something, and for whatever reason replies to those are also not visible in apps. There’s a comment asking if someone else knows their account was marked as a bot, maybe that has something to do with it.
5Someone posted a comment like "don't post this crap" and a lot of people replied to it ... then he deleted it.

Can somebody explain to me why do some people do not like this guy?
22He is super abrasive and speaks like a salesman. I don't like his mannerisms either, but his message and ideals are right up my alley. Also, his videos are not very well edited, if at all, so his videos would sometimes give a very bad first impression. He looks like he's on some drug or something with the dark circles around his eyes. Several videos also make him seem like a gym/frat bro with how he interacts with his employees.
28Insert "They hated Jesus meme" here

It should now be called AdTube "advertise yourself"
Ads are acceptable as long as they do not interfere with the video itself, imagine from start to finish learning advanced excel tutorials, what did you learn lol. And not all ads are just businesses most of them are security risks like click an ad accidentally and it will automatically install useless toolbars, nagware payload software etc without user consent just like the old days but they are now a norm.
10Funny thing, if AdTube(адтуб) pronounced in ruasian, it can be translated back as HellTube.
3Nice! gets better when translated in Russian/Cyrillic. 😁
