I remember when that used to be considered "tacky." In fact a whole lot of things so-called "influencers" do today are things that probably would've gotten them labeled as "tacky" and "sell-outs" back in the 90s. Somehow, over the course of the decades, these things have become acceptable and expected.

I cringe when a Youtuber shills for companies, especially since it was revealed that "Honey" (which I used to see a lot of creators promote) was screwing over the very people who advertised for it.

Making a living as a YouTuber is a sad business in general, even millions of views are usually not enough to live off of it, especially when you actually have production costs beyond the single creator's own living expenses and their personal computer.
