I used to love Kurzgesagt but I just don't like their videos anymore, and I'm not sure why. They definitely make the kind of content I enjoy, always did and still do, but when I try to watch any of their videos from the last 3-4 years I just don't like it. I also get this feeling that they are kinda smug about their popularity and how famous they are, it's weird.

I feel the same way. I can't put my finger on it, but I feel something is off and not as good as the older videos. Definitely not because they're more mainstream now though

Nope, you're definitely not a contrarian by nature in real life.

You're also immune to Russian apathy propaganda and Lemmy complaints about green washing...

It's gotta be because they managed to make money off spreading well researched and sauced scientific videos and something just feels off now...
