begging people into streamers and youtubers to understand even most fairly online people have *zero* idea who they are. People out there are at best only vaguely aware that Mr. Beast or Critical Role exist, FFS. And most of those who know more only know *of* them from general news/rep.

I’m into streamers and YouTubers and yet, every single time I hear the name Ethan Klein, I go through the same process of initially thinking Ezra Klein and then having to correct myself — “no wait, it’s that podcaster guy.”

Someone said "Temu Tim & Eric vape guy from way back" and it was only then I realized I kind of knew who he was (from the one bit).

People are more likely to know about some random song/musical artist used in a bunch of TikToks (and you're still rolling relatively low odds even for the average decently online TikTok user) than actually know anything about Matt Mercer or Jimmy Donaldson.

The fewer people know about Mr. Beast the better.
