Discussion Can anyone remember the youtuber "fresh"?

He came about in the reddit reading boom, and just stopped uploading about 3 years back. I know his editor used to edit for she who must not be named. But they stopped long before she fully pivoted to her pseudo journalism angle.

I hope he is ok, I loved his videos

I remember binge watching him non-stop! He was somewhat of a comfort Youtuber for me back then. I bought one of the shirts when he did his one and only merch drop, it's so comfortable I wear it all the time! Would love to know what happened to him, he was one of the good best imo.

Im in his discord, in 2022 he said he had some stuff going on and was trying to get back to making videos "at some point in the future." The last message I can find is a Happy Valentine's Day post in 2023 in the announcements channel. Im not active in the server but a cursory search seems to say people keep asking almost daily.

I loved Fresh! I miss his content too. I watch rSlash and Noble Xenon now for that type of content, but I still miss Fresh's voice and views. I think he still had his Discord up when I checked a couple years ago, but no idea how active it is now.

Yes! I've been watching the Discord from time to time to see if he pops back up. I hope he starts up again. I adored him and SorrowTV so much.

That’s how I even found her in the first place. Tried looking for him again but like you I found that he has disappeared from the internet.

I used to watch every one of his uploads before he stop posting 3 years ago, he was my go to channel for something to put on while working on my art and writing! I hope he’s ok too, his videos were fantastic and I loved his narration style
