    That happened to some Minecraft youtubers that I was subscribed to, they switched over to fortnite to appeal to young children and I unsubscribed from them

    They forgot about their original audience

      I mean it sucks but its clear enough of the “original” audience stuck around. Growth is important and only appealing to your og audience is a sentence for death if you are trying to make being an influencer a job. There is a reason why many influencers have to diversify even when they originally were primarily making videos of a single game because once that game popularity starts to drop, their audience is all they have and people simply “age out” of content and there is nothing wrong with that. Hell this isn’t only to influencers but to most products.

        Absolutely agree with you there.

        Look at Jon Tron (ignoring his controversial parts) and PewDiePie. They kept adapting and growing.

        While people like cadi, peanut butter gamer and other og normal boots folks didn’t want to grow with their audience and change, and they have just flat lined in growth.
