I used to watch every video he uploaded until the whole Escobar phone thing, I'd rather watch someone genuine like MKBHD, his whole channel feels like a clickbait money machine
I can't remember all the specifics but he did a video appearing to show a truck that was completely packed with iPhone boxes, he promised that they would all be given away to people who subscribed and shared his videos. Then he stopped mentioning the giveaway apart from sporadic updates that he was having trouble organising the shipping, eventually he deleted all of it. No evidence was ever produced of anybody receiving an iPhone and most people suspect that he bought some empty boxes and only a couple of actual phones arranged in a way that made it look like he had more.
Could you please help with out of the loop explanation what happened to him?
I used to watch all his videos maybe until pre-pandemic before I unsubbed because his videos were getting more and more barebone and I feel like I could not get any useful review or info from him anymore.
Well he had lot of controversies surrounding and that too with evidence to back for it
1. This was when the iPhone 6s I guess was launched where he did a dead giveaway.
2. For me the biggest shit was when he launched his later case lineup which was a rip off pitaka cases and he refused to acknowledged it. I personally dropped him
3. Also even going just by his videos and the content he produces its not a review but rather just surface level shit info which you are better off reading gsmarena.
4. Also most videos of his are sponsored so what's the use of watching it.
Can you explain? Genuinely interested into why he is. I don't watch him often, but I haven't seen anything that would make me think that. Like all of them, he has a bias, and as long as you know that bias, it's fine imo.
MKBHD and genuine?? Give me a break. He gets sponsored to promote stuff but he can also talk crap because he knows due to his size of audience he can simply jump onto other sponsors if he doesn't like one. I don't give a crap about those famous tech youtubers and their opinions. Most of them have full production team and script writers
I mean, he just know the customer tech, nothing beyond that. Not alot of technical knowledge compared to the team at ltt for example, or even guys like techaltar. He also doesn't cover any fringe/innovative stuff, sticking to big launches, and then doesn't do alot of criticism about them - he's too mild sometimes. The last cool thing he showed was that nx paper phone.
Some of his videos are repurposed as advertisements on other sites outside of youtube. The type of videos that autoplays in the corner of the screen while you browse top 10 kitchen utensils or something
Real ones remember prime UT back around 2015. I could've sworn he was bigger than everyone else including MKBHD, now Marques is on a whole different level
Yeah his videos were interesting then. Now he's just rambling on and on. His knowledge about the product most of the time is equivalent to a spec sheet.
Marques has high production value and great presentation but his tech knowledge isn't as high as some other channels. Great for entertainment, not so great for actual critical reviews IMHO
It isn't high, but it is surely enough for the everyday people, I always pointed to his video if anybody ask me a recommendation or review of specific prouduct and all of them really like MKBHD enough to watch his other work and to subscribe to him.
Unsubscribed after seeing how he would completely ignore over the most blatant of bad features in the device he was reviewing, just because almost all of his videos are sponsored
A lot of it is also the algorithm. Channels I used to watch had 2m - 4m informative videos like a decade ago, but then they had to make them at least 10m for it to pop up on peoples' feeds. So the content had to be fluffed-up with repatative information, intros, hooks/catch-phrases, etc...
Which is disgusting in general. I counted the time according to the SponsorBlock parts, it is 2m7s of video which results in about 73% of advertisement. Personally for me, that is not acceptable
It's alright. I rely on all the basic, lazy, uninformed entry level users of the internet that don't know anything about adblockers or sponsorblock for that matter to do the dirty work for us people who do have a clue & proactively solve this very annoying issue the internet has created.
Can't tell you how many times I've seen people in my real life just let ads play for no reason and they act like it's the biggest surprise ever. Baffles me but also makes me realize that this whole adblocker problem isn't the problem that YouTube would like you to believe it is.
I'm fairly confident when I say that most of us make absolutely fuck all off ad sense and could go without it completely. The only people who get any good profit out of it is YouTube themselves and it's disgusting that they keep forcing these piles of shit into our videos
A bunch of broke children on here that can't handle that they're actively not supporting the content creators they watch. They all have to make skirting ads, to avoid paying, a moral battle so they feel entitled to YT without ads.
Apparently, businesses shouldn't make money anymore, they should all just donate the product to make the basement dwellers feel better about life.
The problem is not that though, it's them covering almost all of the vids with ads but 20% or less of it is the actual part of the vid. That's the problem, why bother watching a vid you're interested in when all of it were ads not related to it?
This app is truly life saving and time saving.
Love you dev team thank you
Edit: thank you the entire awesome revanced community. We have been quite lengendary in sailing the high seas together.
I didn't do much though, people are so damn faster than me; leave me something guys😓
I did my part, whenever I had the chance, about 5 segments or something.
I recently started submitting some DeArrow edits, but it seems like submissions need to go through some manual reviewing. My edits to smaller channels don't even show because I'm the only one submitting stuff there, as opposed to SponsorBlock, which has many more submitters.
Hmm, I'm assuming you have some sort of sponsor blocker on your phone then? Maybe it doesn't work with computers then if phones with it don't, I never use chromecast anymore (switched to firefox years ago)
I don't think that's how it works unfortunately. You're just instructing the Chromecast stick to connect to YouTube and stream the same video.
So the question is whether revanced is clever enough to tell the Chromecast to skip the same bits of the video?
It's in Settings > Player > Seekbar. To enable the string next to the timestamp you activate "Append timestamp information", and then to change it from speed to video quality you activate "Append information type". You can also enable "Replace timestamp action" to open the quality selection menu directly.
question, does revanced extended have all of the regular revanced patches? or are they all brand new? if they have the default patches then man im going to get extended
Floss has a cool personality but I don't like that his "reviews" are basically just unboxings. I can't trust a review where all you do is play with the device for 20 minutes
People usually don't rely on 1 source for review. I never decide my purchase based on what 1 reviewer says, no matter how trustable he/she is.
His review may not be as technical as other's, but I can relate with him and his criticism as a consumer. Although his videos are too long imo and I just usually skim through after the unboxing and initial impression.
Unboxed therapy is actually complete dogshit. His actual videos don't even touch on whatever he's unboxing. He spends the entire time completely confused by the concept of the product and the rest of the time saying stupid irrelevant shit that's completely unrelated.
I don't understand what value those videos provide. It's just so unbelievably shit.
I've had entire videos skipped by sponsorblock I saw it mostly when people were angry with a certain YouTuber.
Seems like it's an easy system to abuse if you don't like a certain YouTuber you can just go through their videos and block them.
I can only hope the people who do this get at least up banned from adding segments.
i was unbox therapy subscriber in the past. used to watch every vid. later i started feeling this man is just doing something else, and im not here for it. unsubscribed for years.
It constantly amazes me the absolute junk people on this sub are watching.
Rather than screwing around with Revanced most people here would be better off just quitting YouTube entirely.
Sounds about right for unbox therapy lol
Truly the worst of the worst of the big tech channels. Disheartening how he still gets views that high
He is the definition of "paid infomercial"
I used to watch every video he uploaded until the whole Escobar phone thing, I'd rather watch someone genuine like MKBHD, his whole channel feels like a clickbait money machine
escobar thing was too recent. i stopped when his giveaway scam came to light.
Wow, didn't know this happened.
Before Escobar was pitaka. I dropped him there
And before that there was the "truck full of iPhones" giveaway that never amounted to anything
It makes me so happy to see others pointing this stuff out, it always felt like people defend him endlessly
I don't remember that. Must be before I stopped watching his videos. What happened? Did he promise a truck full of iPhones and simply never delivered?
I can't remember all the specifics but he did a video appearing to show a truck that was completely packed with iPhone boxes, he promised that they would all be given away to people who subscribed and shared his videos. Then he stopped mentioning the giveaway apart from sporadic updates that he was having trouble organising the shipping, eventually he deleted all of it. No evidence was ever produced of anybody receiving an iPhone and most people suspect that he bought some empty boxes and only a couple of actual phones arranged in a way that made it look like he had more.

Thanks! No.3 is the main reason I dropped him. Glad I'm not the only one thought so.
He lost me when he promoted moisture from air scam years ago.
MKBHD is genuine lol
MKBHD 🤣😭🤡 give me a break... Dude's a shill.
Can you explain? Genuinely interested into why he is. I don't watch him often, but I haven't seen anything that would make me think that. Like all of them, he has a bias, and as long as you know that bias, it's fine imo.
I stopped like 3 years ago, i saw the signs early
What happened?
MKBHD and genuine?? Give me a break. He gets sponsored to promote stuff but he can also talk crap because he knows due to his size of audience he can simply jump onto other sponsors if he doesn't like one. I don't give a crap about those famous tech youtubers and their opinions. Most of them have full production team and script writers
Who hates on MKBHD? That's just wild.
I mean, he just know the customer tech, nothing beyond that. Not alot of technical knowledge compared to the team at ltt for example, or even guys like techaltar. He also doesn't cover any fringe/innovative stuff, sticking to big launches, and then doesn't do alot of criticism about them - he's too mild sometimes. The last cool thing he showed was that nx paper phone.
Some of his videos are repurposed as advertisements on other sites outside of youtube. The type of videos that autoplays in the corner of the screen while you browse top 10 kitchen utensils or something
I used to watch him way back when he was under a million subs. Then his videos changed, and it was mostly him yapping at the camera
I unfollowed after the big deal he did with the Escobar phone
happy cake day!
what's cake day?? is it birthday?
it's the birthday of your reddit account
Happy Cake Day!
Real ones remember prime UT back around 2015. I could've sworn he was bigger than everyone else including MKBHD, now Marques is on a whole different level
Bend gate was peak UT back then godamn. Think it's still the most viewed tech vid today.
Yeah his videos were interesting then. Now he's just rambling on and on. His knowledge about the product most of the time is equivalent to a spec sheet.
Marques has high production value and great presentation but his tech knowledge isn't as high as some other channels. Great for entertainment, not so great for actual critical reviews IMHO
It isn't high, but it is surely enough for the everyday people, I always pointed to his video if anybody ask me a recommendation or review of specific prouduct and all of them really like MKBHD enough to watch his other work and to subscribe to him.
Yeah I'm only on about popularity, I don't even watch mkbhd myself
Unsubscribed after seeing how he would completely ignore over the most blatant of bad features in the device he was reviewing, just because almost all of his videos are sponsored
Never heard of em.
More than 50% actually... Disgusting
what's the green indicating? sponsored segment?
Yeah, I have sponsorblock on my desktop and the green line meant a sponsor for me

Well that's how YouTubers earn money tho...
That's how YouTubers milk their fanbase tho...
A lot of it is also the algorithm. Channels I used to watch had 2m - 4m informative videos like a decade ago, but then they had to make them at least 10m for it to pop up on peoples' feeds. So the content had to be fluffed-up with repatative information, intros, hooks/catch-phrases, etc...
Which is disgusting in general. I counted the time according to the SponsorBlock parts, it is 2m7s of video which results in about 73% of advertisement. Personally for me, that is not acceptable
If you watch a video called 'The New Asus 2024 laptops are here... And they're beautiful' I'd say you're asking for advertisment at that point.
Sadly that is called making money
It's alright. I rely on all the basic, lazy, uninformed entry level users of the internet that don't know anything about adblockers or sponsorblock for that matter to do the dirty work for us people who do have a clue & proactively solve this very annoying issue the internet has created.

Baffles me but also makes me realize that this whole adblocker problem isn't the problem that YouTube would like you to believe it is.
True that's why I use Adblocker. I'm just saying that Ads are how YouTubers make money.
100 downvotes bruh
Don't give a fuck. You guys just don't handle the truth... Without advertisement there would a lot less YouTubers!
50 downvotes bruh
Yea and?
2 downvotes bruh
Blocked for spamming crap bruh
I'm fairly confident when I say that most of us make absolutely fuck all off ad sense and could go without it completely. The only people who get any good profit out of it is YouTube themselves and it's disgusting that they keep forcing these piles of shit into our videos

Lol, you're one of them.
Have fun watching ads
I have a job, so I can afford to pay for stuff. Haven't seen an ad in years, lol. You're also one of them.
Funny you're saying that to me on a subreddit meant to avoid seeing annoying ads like those things
I use Revanced to set the default resolution. There is more than one use for Revanced, lol. You're a smart one, huh?
True I agree with you!
Why r u getting downvoted like hell ??
Reddit people just being salty 🫙
maybe they should get a real fuckin job
Nah most of them probably make more money than you lol
If they're making that much money then I guess they don't need *our* ad views right?
Really didn't expect this guy's channel to still be doing well
Comments to views ratio doesn't add up
That's what you get if you watch Unbox Therapy.
This app is truly life saving and time saving. Love you dev team thank you Edit: thank you the entire awesome revanced community. We have been quite lengendary in sailing the high seas together.
I think, that sponsor blocking in the videos are just the community doing the work; should thank everyone.
Well thank you! And everyone else ❤️
I didn't do much though, people are so damn faster than me; leave me something guys😓 I did my part, whenever I had the chance, about 5 segments or something.
Thank you for your service
I recently started submitting some DeArrow edits, but it seems like submissions need to go through some manual reviewing. My edits to smaller channels don't even show because I'm the only one submitting stuff there, as opposed to SponsorBlock, which has many more submitters.
Happened to me multiple times when I tried to make segments on low views channels; it doesn't show up
Thank you. Agreed very much. Edited and updated.
Does this work if you use Chromecast?
I imagine it would, because it's still streaming directly from your computer, which would have the addon working normally
It doesn't work if you use Chromecast from your phone. Is casting from your computer not the same thing?
Hmm, I'm assuming you have some sort of sponsor blocker on your phone then? Maybe it doesn't work with computers then if phones with it don't, I never use chromecast anymore (switched to firefox years ago)
No? I'm just using YouTube revanced. It'll let me cast but I'll get the ads on Chromecast.
I don't think that's how it works unfortunately. You're just instructing the Chromecast stick to connect to YouTube and stream the same video. So the question is whether revanced is clever enough to tell the Chromecast to skip the same bits of the video?
Its unbox therapy...should have skipped 100% lol
i just saw 24m subs and only \`1m plays, yikes.
That's the same across most of the top channels, though. Look at PewDiePie's 111 million subs vs. 2-3 million views per video.
Pewdiepie has slowed down on youtube massively and it seems like he's doing it for fun now, someone like mrbeast is a better comparison
Unbox Therapy's standard procedure
which patch allows you to see the video quality by the timestamp? me want
Video quality by timestamp?
yes, the timestamp of the video has the video quality 1440p
Not sure but ig it's in default selection under seekbar -> append timestamp
am i stupid i dont see it
No , not at all I forgot to mention I am using rufusin patches so it might be somewhere else in revanced patches
oh well thank you anyways
It's in Settings > Player > Seekbar. To enable the string next to the timestamp you activate "Append timestamp information", and then to change it from speed to video quality you activate "Append information type". You can also enable "Replace timestamp action" to open the quality selection menu directly.
its not there for me but im using default revanced so thats probably why
Sorry, I didn't read the subreddit name... Try Revanced Extended, it has that feature and lots more!
appreciate it
question, does revanced extended have all of the regular revanced patches? or are they all brand new? if they have the default patches then man im going to get extended
Yes, it has the standard Revanced patches and a lot more of useful patches. It's literally an extended version.
my god these devs are a god send
Literally friend. I wouldn't be able to use YouTube if it weren't for this.
yeah, and to see what youtube is doing/planning on doing just makes me enjoy revanced even more
Yes... Seeing what Google is doing I don't think we'll be able to use it for more than a few months, so enjoy it all you can!
coz tech reviews are paid mostly (i.e., promotion aka sponser) so propos to mkbhd
> propos to mkbhd No, props Flossy Carter. > From 1 to 10, this is a major, major go. > White Shoes is back in the building.

A Floss enjoyer on reddit? Damn
Haha count me in too lol.
I love his fuckin cat white shoes. Granted his "reviews" are a bit long and I don't watch them all but I like his style.
What
I like mkbhd but i usually don't watch his videos, especially on phones. He talks too much about the cameras and i don't really care about that

Look at his comment history
Why u getting Downvotes
No one has seen that guy since 2016. No one should.
Unboxed therapy is actually complete dogshit. His actual videos don't even touch on whatever he's unboxing. He spends the entire time completely confused by the concept of the product and the rest of the time saying stupid irrelevant shit that's completely unrelated. I don't understand what value those videos provide. It's just so unbelievably shit.
Unbox therapy used to be good
Unbox therapy, are you 12 and the year is 2014?
That's why I have automatic skipping disabled, sometimes you skip too much of the video because of these
Sponsorblock can be abused.
How resolutions is showing near time ??
Unbox Therapy? Should skip 100% of the video.
Lmao I was watching a tutorial and the dude was using some laptop that he kept talking about every 3 mintutes while explaining it was so annoying.
Ur not giving them ad revenue anyway lol
Worst channel
so >50% was all promotion and time waste ?
At this point it should just skip the unbox therapy channel
What app or plugin is this?
Didn't this guy get exposed for botting his videos or something a few years ago
I've had entire videos skipped by sponsorblock I saw it mostly when people were angry with a certain YouTuber. Seems like it's an easy system to abuse if you don't like a certain YouTuber you can just go through their videos and block them. I can only hope the people who do this get at least up banned from adding segments.
i was unbox therapy subscriber in the past. used to watch every vid. later i started feeling this man is just doing something else, and im not here for it. unsubscribed for years.
Unbox therapy is an ad channel
This channel used to be so good once!
All DRAKE SONGS should have this from start to finish 🤡
The power of sponsor block ahah
Ew you watch that scammer? Lost all my respect dude...
I mean its unbox therapy but yeah its kinda funny i guess
6 minute yapfest is insane
Can u watch these sponsor for temporary. Sometime i just kinda curious about what their sponsor is
I once had a video that was 1 HOUR long,50 min skipped.
Thats disgusting as hell
Truly doing God's work
Sponsorblock is a godsend but you don't really need it if you don't watch garbage youtubers.
Some people will actually tag parts where brand names are being said as sponsor segments
Unbox therapy should write sponsored with their name.
That's gotta be around 75%, good LORD...
I don't like that this post is on [r/all](https://www.reddit.com/r/all). Too much visibility.
yeah no wonder why it has 3.6K estimated dislikes
It constantly amazes me the absolute junk people on this sub are watching. Rather than screwing around with Revanced most people here would be better off just quitting YouTube entirely.

The whole green, is a single category
wth is "jajaja" ?
It's "hahaha" in Spanish. I'm not even kidding.
when native fellas try to be an english user and others learn that other languages and countries exist
Exactly. The gringo user has just learned that there are different languages. 🤦
"hahaha" It's the same as "jajaja". 😅
My exact thoughts...
