Wish over simplified was still a thing. They moved to patreon for getting demonetized having videos about war.

Oh really? Was not aware of that at all. Their recent videos about the second Punic Wars were incredible.

I agree, but go to their channel and see how often they release content now vs a couple years ago. It’s like he covers one thing a year now.

True, it's been much more slow paced. Thought it was because the videos took much more time to make, wasn't aware he was quite active on Patreon.

I wish there was an actual alternative to YouTube. I believe arm chair historian is going through the same thing but I think he gets paid more for sponsors so it doesn’t affect him as much. I’m also getting tired you YouTube blurring our minutes of video when they show dead bodies from war or other visuals they deem necessary to blur. I watch a ton of ww1 and ww2 documentary’s on the timeline channel and even some of mark feltons videos are getting blurred. It’s insane.
