    People are tired of paying for 900 subscriptions
  • @momokunn
    They left buzzfeed just to become buzzfeed themselves
  • @xMorganbrittnyx
    This sucks. I love them... But I'm not buying another streaming service.
  • @tonitonibb
    never would I ever think that the day where The Ghoul Boys would be on Tea Spill... but I agree with the mass, this is a really shitty move that seems extremely thought out and not at all at the same time...
  • @katieartist94
    I’ve followed them since their first Buzzfeed unsolved video, and I’m SHOCKED! They’d be the last company I’d expect to do this… they shot themselves in the foot and now their silence is deafening.
  • Why would anyone pay for the exact same content and no incentives. Career death
  • Watcher on Tea spill? The crossover I literally never wanted but I'm getting 😢👍
  • They originally tried to take down all their YouTube content, but quickly went nooooOOOOoooo we're keeping it up, you guys just heard wrong💀
  • @bbkeons
    And yet, they still have a full patreon, where the highest tier is $100/month?!?!?
  • @Eszti2000
    The way they speak about leaving YouTube makes it sound like they are forced to quit. Like come on, no one is making them do this. At least be honest about why you are leaving
  • If they are really set on producing high-budget content and it truly isn't affordable to them, they should have pitched their show to an existing streaming service. Expecting people to pay $6 a month to be able to watch one show is just silly.
  • @neutralman9124
    Under 3million subscribers is nowhere near enough for this to be viable and their announcement having just under 200k dislikes is wild. They've ruined their careers.
  • @vulgaritar48
    Just to nitpick, but it was Ryan and Shane who spent years building up a loyal supportive fanbase willing to follow them off Buzzfeed. I don't know who that other guy is.
  • @elineclaeys8226
    And don't forget they wanted to remove all the old content from YouTube! The decision was quickly rolled back/denied but in the video it very much sounds like that was the original plan.
  • @originalbk
    Somebody commented under their Instagram post about this with, "Maybe the demons were Ryan and Shane all along." RIP.
  • @cee8ch
    buzzfeed collapsed because of overhiring and mismanagement of funds. just sucks to see that they didn’t learn from their old employer’s mistakes.
  • I’ve been watching Ryan & Shane since their Buzzfeed days. Unfortunately I won’t be “following them this one last time”. They really shot themselves in the foot with this business decision.
  • @amarikiera
    its so sad considering they literally make so much from patreon already…
  • @ko.8742
    200k subs lost, 170k dislikes, 71k+ comments, none of these so far are positive on their side. Content creators should be reminded that being greedy will have a concequence.
