It has always confused me how these people don't ever seem to consider shooting it's self as a fine motor skill.
It absolutely is, and it deteriorates without practicing often. COVID devastated my shooting skills and I've yet to fully recover. there was a time that i was able to hit a 8 inch steel plate at 90 yards in double action fire with my GP100 .357. COVID/rioting blacks meant i had to cut back on my shooting to a huge extent to conserve ammo and my skills atrophied.
 
Truth then freedom uploaded a pretty good video about the death of guntube.

Yeah he's probably right. Most of guntube currently is consoomer bullshit(has been for years) and spectacle(the slow motion videos, kentucky ballistics, demolition ranch before he retired, shit like that). The spectacle stuff is fine, but the rest of guntube isn't doing anything interesting. When they aren't shilling product, or complaining that they didn't get paid to shill product, you get faggots like that Trench Grenade guy and his "training" nonsense.

Where's the discussion about setting up a course? How to actually use the gear they've been shilling? I'm not sure I've seen a video discussing how to use a reticle on youtube without specifically searching for one in a decade at this point. Discussion of actual ballistics besides shooting into gel from 10 yards? How to shoot with wind changing directions downrange? Or hell, even wind at all? Unfortunately I know why that stuff rarely gets videos, and even if it does rarely gets views. It's because it hasn't actually changed in decades, and while there is certainly room for instructional content most of the gun youtube channels don't know anyone that actually understands any of that shit.

But yeah, people get bored with consoomer videos, especially when it's the same shit over and over

That stuff exists, it's just impossible to make a career on it and the videos on it never get the mega views necessary for the algorithm to promote them to new people.

It's also not just guns, it's everything. Educational content is always very niche.
 
it was reuploaded, I don't know if any content was cut or not. I hadn't gotten around to listening to it either. Worst case the unedited one will probably be Rumble.

The rumble version is 5 minutes longer. I could only watch about 10 minutes before I turned it off.

Clearly there is an audience for complaining about all these trash legacy guntubers and their shit content. The video is now at 20k views in 2 days with 900 likes and only 20 dislikes.

This, and its fashion for people with really bad financial responsibility. If you're having trouble affording gas and ground beef, you probably are sick of hearing about the new hype beast plate carrier and if you dont have nods, youre ngmi.

Also, I think the Ukraine war showed that it doesn't matter how much money you put into your silly tarkov fantasy loadout, a drone or artillery will turn you into tomato paste the same as any schlub

Gun fashion nonsense has always been a thing, but yeah at this point it's gone too far and gotten stupid. Previously it was which tactical color was the latest trend, you had annual printed 5.11 tactical catalogs, people treating keymod and mlok like a fucking videogame console war, etc.

Meanwhile there's been no significant improvements in terminal ballistics, manufacturing and assembling, optics(without getting into the 5 figure range), etc. and it's just boring.

It doesn't have anything to do with legacy guntubers either. I even named one who is just as bad and has no legacy in my post.

I was commenting on the video and its content not your post/opinion about the video.

Quite literally the very first words in the video "So, if you go to just about any established gun tubers channel, go to their more recent uploads and compare them against some of the ones from years past, the drop off is pretty hard to ignore."

The non legacy guntuber you chose to single out is in fact one of the only guntubers whos views have gone consistently up in the past few years.

For anyone interested Lucas got pinned in the comments.

I didn't say you were. I was pointing out that it's more than legacy guntubers, which he also addresses himself in the video.

First of all, Trench Grenade is a faggot.

Second, that's "gone consistently up" to you? He hasn't seen an increase in views since before New Years, we're already in May. 6 months of dropping views is not "gone consistently up" That's a downward trend after a spike in views that makes no sense other than being tied to Charlie Kirk where he did get a bunch of views 7 months back and likely led to people viewing his other content... and then falling right back off to 2-5k views a video.

This looks like a channel doing well to you? Looks to me like he's trying to chase the algorithm and failing.

You said, “It doesn't have anything to do with legacy guntubers either,” which it, in fact, does. NOT ONLY which no one said, but certainly does.

>Second, that's "gone consistently up" to you? He hasn't seen an increase in views since before New Years

So his views “WENT UP CONSISTENTLY” every single month from June 2023, when he was at 73K views per month, to January 2026 at 6 million views per month. April 2026 is 570K views, which is 500 thousand more than when his views started going up consistently in 2023. When he is back below 70K views per month, your sperging will be valid. Truth Then Freedom’s video was addressing channels losing views over the past few YEARS, which Trench has not done.

>This looks like a channel doing well to you?
Point out where I made any kind of claim even close to that.

Yes, his views go up... except for the parts where they go down. You cannot claim that there's a consistent increase in views, when the chart specifically shows a consistent DECREASE in views for the past 6 months. Hell, you even mention the January 2026 number... but fail to mention how it was previously above that at 15 million and then after January it's just dropped even further. 6 months of falling views is not consistently going anywhere but down, sure as hell not up. Let me try and make this clearer for you, since months at a time is not some anomaly

Well if his views were consistently going up for years, instead of consistently falling off for months he'd have more views. Can you not tell up from down on a chart? Even between October 2024 and April 2025 on the chart you posted, his views were not consistently going up, if anything they were flatlined. Hell, even when his views were drastically up, clearly there was nothing consistent about it since going from hardly anything to 15 million, and then having an IMMEDIATE drop off of over 50% is not "consistent".
You said, “It doesn't have anything to do with legacy guntubers either,” which it, in fact, does. NOT ONLY which no one said, but certainly does.
Yes, because it has nothing to do with being a legacy guntuber. It has everything to do with shitty gubtube channels in general producing shit content. But I forgot, you're the guy who can't tell if a channel is just shilling consoomer bullshit or not unless leviathan group is attached to it.
faggots like that Trench Grenade guy
And that's the problem. Stop trying to support a faggot, he doesn't need you defending him on KF.
