What happened to all the comments?

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.

Mods? I think a lot of people find this dude insufferable.

I think OP has been the insufferable one.

Hard to say without being able to see the comments. I suspect that if that were the case, the entire post would have been removed.

But the comments where not removed by mods. It seems like the commenter removed them.

They did. They explained that, then later deleted the explanation too

I 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

No 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.

That was me asking actually. I saw someone upvoted the question but I can’t see anything. Weird

I’ve got some idiot or a group of them following me around now making brand new accounts and single comments per account that say things that end with “not my problem” and downvoting everything, which is amusing because I’m on a server with downvotes disabled. All because I dismissed their complaints about this youtuber LOL

So… yeah… Lemmy is having a Reddit day.

I deleted my comment because I was not up to arguing with Rossmann’s fan club

I’m not even a huge fan of Rossmann, I was just asking you to explain what you felt he was wrong about. At no point in the thread did you ever explain why you were so vehemently claiming he has no idea what he’s talking about in this video.

it was a waste of my time

If anything, you wasted everybody else’s time by making a weird claim and refusing to explain yourself.

Edit: lmao deleted again, guess we’ll never get an answer, will we?

C’mon, I specifically told that I deleted my comments because I didn’t want to discuss it and you response to that by bringing it up again?

I only commented again because OP accused me of harassing him, which I’m not doing. I’m not interested in talking about the video or Rossmann at all, because it’s just a waste of my time.

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.

Could you elaborate as to what he’s wrong about?

not at all. the problem with this video is that the guy has literally no clue what he’s talking about.

Since you seem to have the most knowledge about that topic, why don’t you explain where he’s wrong instead of repeating yourself?

I’m all for sharing knowledge and educating people. Repeating that other people don’t have a clue about something, while not demonstrating you yourself have a clue about it, is just wasting everyone’s time.

Hi, did you know your account is set to appear as a bot? Many users might be not seeing your content as a result.

Care to elaborate why exactly he’s wrong? What’s your opinion?

You’re demanding too much from them. They burnt a lot of neurons writing that shitty comment.

The irony part is calling someone a clown, when it’s them who built an entire circus on this comment’s section. What a 👑

Can somebody explain to me why do some people do not like this guy?

Insert “They hated Jesus meme” here

He 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.

Ever met someone you don’t like? Not because they beat your mom and impregnated your sister… just because you don’t like them?
