The Complete History Of OSFirstTimer

The OSFirstTimer Youtube Channel was created on November 3rd 2012 and just 6 months later it already had almost 8,000 subscribers and 800,000 total video views. How did OSFirstTimer start, where did the inspiration come from and how did I become so interested in operating systems.

This video takes you back to 2001 when I first started using computers then to 2007 when I first started making youtube channels and to 2012 when I created OSFirstTimer and all the way to now. Almost everything you could possibly know about the history of OSFirstTimer is in this video so get some popcorn (or whatever you like to eat), sit back and enjoy the next hour and 20 minutes of watching this video.

I 110% support his new journey in life, but when ever you have extra time Philip, you should do an updated version of this!! We miss ya! Cheers from Florida, USA!

I remember watching this video back around 2013/2014, now it's 2023 (which is a little scary) and I still love this channel!

[wardengamer]

I keep coming back to this video. It's very interesting despite it being almost an hour and a half long.

This has to be the third time I’ve watched this. It’s so well produced and provides so much background about you and the channel, and it’s crazy you took so much time to make this when the channel was so small.

[MariHalo]

I always see myself coming back to this video. It is a great way to pass the time, as it is very long, and is very entertaining.

This channel brings back memories, I used to watch it when I was very young and started getting into computers and technology

There's no talking AI in mountain lion... that voice was pre-recorded earlier using the mac text to speech engine and then set to play after a certain time had passed.

"The chances of getting RSI are higher when you know about the existence of the disease" thanks mate

[slayer_west]

So happy this channel still exists, hope you're doing well nowadays Philip - so interesting to watch all of these after all these years :)

[salute]

You deserve WAY more subs. Like it is 2019 and you still only have 88K. How do you not have like at least 500K by now?

[JohnSmith-kwdt]

Very interesting section on "the phase" and RSI/TMS, glad to know you found things that work for you and got better. Big fan of your videos!

[abyssunderground]

This has to be the longest video I've ever watched on YouTube but I loved every second! Fantastic insight, and your Mum is such a great sport for taking part. I've seen you over at my forum (BetaArchive) a few times, so hopefully I'll see you there again in future. I'm looking forward to future videos too, keep it up! =)

[TwoDudesOneMine]

I have watched this 3 times, I still didn't get bored this time!

[OsFirstTimer]

It was deleted... It was pretty awesome though. 5 hours compressed into 5 minutes and being able to see the charactor zoom by from place to place doing stuff was really cool

[samueljjc]

I've watched this like 8 times and this isn't still boring! My favourite video!
