YouTube didn't make @boburnham famous. Bo made himself famous via YouTube.

This is pretty much true for me. I actually found Bo through his actual stand up specials, I later learned that he got his start on YouTube.

I mean, YouTube is an entirely different beast than it was back then. It's like that thing about the ship: if every part and crew member is replaced by the time it gets back to port, is it the same ship? In this case, no.

“Former YouTube star”?!?!? How bout “current successful comedian” or “current successful poet” or “current successful director”. Those seem relevant.
-
People really haven't noticed him since he left YouTube bud. I could mention his name to people and they'll be like "who?" Or oh that old YouTube dude.
-
That just shows how absent you are from the comedy realm. He’s widely known.

I wasn't saying me dude ahah I was saying people I work with in a daily basis.....
-
People I work with on a daily basis talk about him all the time....

-
Remember our difference in work and our location in the country. But thanks for the jab making it seem like I didn't know who he was
-
I know YOU know who he is. I was just saying that a lot more people actually do than you think don’t.

One of the most enjoyable people I've ever seen on stage. Bo Burnham is an amazing amount of talent in one youngster.

Thank you, Bo! This article was vulnerable & genuine & comforting. Anxiety is paralyzing & I'm honestly impressed at your accomplishments while experiencing the worst of it. Please know your work has had such a positive impact on me, especially during my worst times

Probably because YouTube habitually shits on the creators that make the platform good

Great way to undermine someone's achievements and hard work by crediting the shit show that is

Thank you for this. As someone who came to terms with what it meant to be a human being/ to struggle with mental health during the age of the internet, this is familiar and comforting. You've always verbalized everything I wanted to say and I look forward to seeing Eighth Grade

Wow. Powerful and relatable. Bo's comedy is hit-or-miss for me but his interviews and opinions on modern life for the under-30s is spot on.
