The Alarming Rise of YouTube Content Farms

Content farms are taking over youtube. From brain rot content to reaction content that provides no value, to the worst content farm channel of them all...

I'm Visual Venture and I make Internet Culture Documentaries. My mission is to spread awareness about the Dark Realities of Internet Culture.

It's sad to see that Digital Circus is supposed to save the Animation industry, yet now it somehow made a lot of crappy content farms for kids that caused brain rot on YouTube.

What started off as a ridiculous joke in 2022 turned into something horrifying and dangerous

[FluffyAbomination]

My animations, and my friends animations have unironically been stolen by several content farms. Its so annoying. Thanks for spreading awarness about this.

Lankybox used to make parodies of Kpop videos. It's crazy to see how they sold their soul for low effort cringey adult screaming videos

[stormienormie]

It’s not just YouTube, all social media is full of engagement bait.

[weatherlightning]

I'm going to tell you right now, Lankybox was definitely a cancer to the amazing digital circus because they use the characters for their "quote and quote" Brainrot content. They can be the type of guys that can use characters like the ones from Hazbin Hotel into brainrot bs which is absolutely ridiculous and cringe. "What the Sigma", "So Skibidi", "Rizz" like omg, these kids brains are rotting like a flower because of them.

one time caseoh explained that he doesn't stream on tiktok because other people will "livestream" by replaying his streams on their pages. so when he himself tried to stream, tiktok would take it down for spam. the stealing is outta hand

[LeminofSovietOnion]

Why doesn’t YouTube limit the number of video uploads per day? Doing so would save a ton of server bandwidth and also screws with content farms too.

"in the future, comedy will be randomly generated!" Larry the Cucumber from Veggietales.

Absolutely right about this line. W video Visual venture.

THANKYOU THANKYOU THANKYOU for bringing awareness to this. My 11 year old stepdaughter is allowed to watch this garbage on the weeks she is not with us, and it is causing her distress, yet she's obsessed. It's bizarre.
Unfortunately, I can't control what happens when she's not at our house...and it genuinely stresses me out. Its mentally and emotionally influencing our children, who are so vulnerable and impressionable.
Parents who are aware of this and still allow their children to access it should reevaluate what it means to be a parent.

Visual venture seriously needs more attention. The quality of his videos along with the quality of the actual things he’s saying should go more noticed by YouTube.

[GlamrockFreddyTheGoat-vpgt]

Honestly, I miss the days of T.V, now its just random "CATNAP VS DOGDAY SAD STORY SUS IMPOSTER SKIBIDI SIGMA" like bro why did we fall off so bad 💀💀💀

[basilcat]

In fact, TADC episode 3 was scary on purpose. One of the characters purposefully said in reverse "I can't wait for all the children in the audience to get horrible nightmares from the monster". This stuff stopped content farms from making content of TADC.

Ngl. I miss the old times of Youtube's infancy back in 2007.
Old format, lets plays with no overexaggerated face reactions, unregistered hypercam 2, no bot flood in the comment section and silly YTPs that got me into certain media I normally wouldnt have found otherwise. I miss those times.

Anyone remember "Rate 5 Stars?!"

Dan TDM was right. What is happening to today's youtubers. I am a small content creator myself and I am only hoping I will not end up like these guys

Content farms have become the new, evolved version of Elsagate, which has been plaguing YouTube for nearly 10 years.

my 10 year old cousin constantly consumes brainrot content of fpe, poppy playtime 3, and hazbin hotel. (she knows nothing about fpe and only knows about it from a ‘troom troom’ esque channel that showed how you could become one of the characters named ms circle.) i’m honestly kind of scared and concerned…

in the videos she watches, there’s so much going on; especially videos from a content farm channel named GH’s. there are so many over saturated colors, flashy scenes, loud/obnoxious sound effects, and quick segments. it honestly confused me, wondering how and what about it made it appeal to children, because to me, it’s just too overstimulating for me to watch even 20 seconds of it.

i’m honestly worried about the content that gen alpha is consuming and how it’ll affect them in the long run…

In 20 years, the difference between kids who didn't have screens vs. the kids who grew up on content farm brainrot will be STARK.

I am very glad you get people aware of this, this is why I love your channel.
