In August 2015, Buzzfeed peaked with a massive 377,000,000 view month, these days, the channel barely gains 30,000,000 views a month, most of which coming from older established uploads. In the process, Buzzfeed has experienced less viewership, layoffs and pay-cuts, hinting at the rough seas that Buzzfeed happens to be sailing through. Many considered Ryan and Shane from Buzzfeed Unsolved to be the only thing keeping Buzzfeed afloat, with them gone, who knows what lies in the future for Buzzfeed?
This is, The Incredibly Satisfying Death of Buzzfeed.
Thank you guys for watching, like and sub if you enjoyed, SunnyV2 XO ❤

Yeah, pretty much. I was gonna say, when you only hire certain group of people for being poclgbt (which is illegal. Cannot discriminate against AND/or in favor of race, age, gender, etc.) and you have to fire the least productive/necessary of course it's going to be mostly poclgbt because they were only hired because of that identity in the first place not because of their productivity and necessity. And it's not necessarily an "American" thing. It's a western liberal thing. Or conservative in Europe. Cause apparently political views in europe are like the difference in which sides of the roads we drive. I literally saw a European and an American arguing saying, American: "that's what the left is doing" Europe: "no it's the right." And they're literally talking about the same people and neither realized it. Which was actually kinda funny. Kinda like the soccer vs football argument.

One time I was reading a Buzzfeed thing and a few paragraphs seemed very relatable to me, like EXTREAMLY relatable. As if I lived through the exact thing they were talking about. Then it hit me, I did. I wrote that article. Turns out a Buzzfeed "writer" copy and pasted, word for word, a story I wrote on Reddit and passed it off as their own. Anyway that's also the day I learned that Copyright law is hardly ever enforced outside of academics (unless you got a boat load of money). Ya, Fuck you Buzzfeed.

I’m a straight white man. I used to like buzzfeed videos. But then they started hating on me for NO REASON. I understand standing up against sexism, racism, and homophobia. But hating on everyone that’s not one of those people is rediculous. It’s not standing behind those people to hate on the other side, it’s just being a pathetic hater. They should have talked about everyone being more accepting if that’s the message they wanted to go for, but hate only breeds hate and they deserve what’s happened to them

I find it pretty comical that there's women out there with such hostility toward men. It would take almost nothing at all to flip a switch and have them all turned into decorations. Men built everything they take for granted. We don't even need civilization; they do. I'm not saying we're better, but our evolutionary traits make it so that we'll win a war 10 times out of 10 against them. It seems unwise to provoke us.

I don’t get why companies haven’t learned that whenever your alienate a group of people it doesn’t go well. Whenever a company has racist policies or put certain races/ethnicities/sexual identities in a poor light they are publicly outed and in some way it hurts their bottom line. Why would they think that putting out a public letter essentially saying they hated straight white men and that they have nothing important to say would be a good idea? Sure, there will be a small, and I mean small, group of people that would be like “how progressive!” Most people would look at that very negatively. Every friend or acquaintance of mine that is a POC is sick and tired of the white bashing, but they’re all mostly conservative thinkers. You’d think that after seeing tv show after tv show, movie after movie that is race baiting or tries to put a divide in the races absolutely flop they’d get they idea. I mean Seth Rogans stupid Santa show, Everything is going to be all white are prime examples of what not to do. People are tired of the division. I live in a very diverse area and what Hollywood tries to make it out to be is nothing like real life. They want division.

In 2016, Brazil was hosting the olympics. We were very worried as we knew there wasn't enough budget to host it and faced a lot of political issues (actually, we face till this day). Still, Brazil managed to present a breathtaking opening, with lots of references and history of its people. It was amazing, we were very proud. Then there was this post of buzzfeed one day later... It was something named like "Sorry Brazil, but the opening wasn't as good as the last ones". The post was a unfair comparision between our opening and many others, where most of the time they were discrediting Brazil and overvaluing others. I was shocked they basically made a list of "olympic's moments there were better than brazil's, according to some stupid writer point of view", and they still posted it. The comment section were all against them, and I thing they deleted it. But anyways, that moment was when I realized how shitty they were.

Since nobody has mentioned it in the comments, I felt especially bad for creators like Kelsey, who ran the 100 babies Sims 4 challenge for buzzfeed, who couldn't stop their series simply because of what their content was. She most likely had her contract pretty much finished, but she loved her series. She wouldn't have been able to continue it on her main channel due to ownership issues, but because it was a challenge series, she really wanted to see it through, ending with her staying way longer than her friends. I'm glad Kelsey and the rest got out in the end, and I hope it serves as a warning for anyone working in Buzzfeed now to save their creativity for where its truly appreciated!

Kelsey got way more exposure and an automatic audience for sharing her Sims challenge on an already established channel like Buzzfeed (and the 100 Baby challenge wasn’t her own original idea btw, lots of people have done the 100 baby challenge before her). She has been able to move that content to a new channel and maintain her audience, so I’d argue she got way more out of the deal than Buzzfeed ever did.

Many people don't look for real news & accurate info, they just look for someone to tell them what they WANT to hear.

At first it'll point inequality, but eventually once u run out of problems to talk about, u will eventually have to contrive new ones which may lead to more views, but a worse and worse reputation. BuzzFeed did this to themselves. I have no sympathy for them. If anything they should've become a platform which helped promote new creators but instead they're just a stepping stone for content creators who split off and make their own channel once they get an audience.

For transparency, I'm a 47-year-old who started in journalism around 1994 while I was studying genetics. The degree done, I just stayed a journalist because it was an amazing world to be in. Despite the reputation, we had standards - very tough standards. To even get in as a basic news slave, you had to have a degree as well as one of the top 4 marks in the national exam - a six-hour exam that grilled your knowledge of politics, people, news sense and intellectual vigour. Since those days, I've had a 20-year career, variously linked to the media. Then it all seemed pointless, once Buzzfeed got big. What's the point of trying, when information is a commodity fronted by personalities and packaged by marketers? It sucks, but you can't say it sucks because you're in your 40s. So... here we are, everyone finally knows it sucks. Slow power to the people.

I've always felt that BuzzFeed had a very shallow and anti-intellectual view of feminism. Something about the way they drooled over hot guys felt performative: they weren't doing it because they actually liked hot guys; it was a deliberate "let's objectify males" statement, and therefore less honest. The way Qweerty drools over hot guys feels less creepy, because they're doing it for real.

I'm just glad that a lot of people (men and women) in the comment sections where telling this author that trolling men online isn't feminist and isn't empowerment. But that's Buzzfeed for you I fail to see how harrassing random men online is gonna help women's issues.. and I wasn't the only one..

It was so uncomfortable to watch their videos. I'm happy that they crashed & burned the way they did because they spent YEARS pitting people against each other. It's unfortune for their actual good series' they had on the channel but at least a number of them have been able to branch off & find success on their own. BuzzFeed needs to hit the grave, never to be reawakened. Sensational video SunnyV2!

This video captures the fall beautifully. The Try Guys and Shane and Ryan were consistently making high quality content that stood out, and the audience their videos brought was enough to get clicks on the other content. Once they both left, there was a huge chunk of people that likely stuck around for a short period only to realize the quality had significatly dropped. I honestly think BuzzFeed's biggest mistake was not attempting to capture the fans of Try Guys or BuzzFeed unsolved with a new series that might retain them. Instead they thought the volume of content they produced was enough, and their channel inevitably plummeted. The staff that left and went out on their own, and channels like Cut and Jubilee dwindled their audience and BuzzFeed never really bounced back.
