Man, we've all seen and experienced so much drama on the internet nowadays, that it became a common PTSD 😅😀🥲 Edit: 😅 just being exaggerated with the "PTSD" part (hyperbole), but still, y'all know what I meant :D
That tweet you made is really touching. I've grown watching since 2015-2016 when I was ten years old. And now i'm 18. My 19th birthday is in a couple months which is crazy. Time flies when you watch your childhood hero a lot. So thank you Dan for all the memories you give us 💙
I feel you too, i've been watching since around that time too, and im turning 18 this year. And if there is one youtuber that I will watch as long as I can, its definitely DanTDM. Even if you give us less content, its no problem, because we know that you're content will be amazing :)
We will support you no matter your decision! We just appreciate you sticking around! Thank you for everything you do Dan and raising not only me but many many others!
I think to make the "longer" projects, make the vlogs come back again, you could show us a day to day life a DADTDM. I believe that there is so much more opportunity to communicate with your fanbase. You have been such an inspiration for not just me, but this community as a whole, you have changed many peoples lives and gave people a smile when they were not ok. In my opinion it's not when you post, its how you feel when you make videos. feel at your best when you make the videos and just be patient with yourself. I am now 20 and started watching you when I was 7, my mom used to have a crush on you lol. but enough of me, you have been the biggest part in my life and I hope that you can make videos genuinely and not just post videos just to put them out, rest and recollect your thoughts and then be ready for the videos again. Be the best you that you can be Dan. I thank you every day that you post and when you don't post I go back to the old videos and reminisce on the old videos. Take your time and I and the community will be with you the whole way. I love you, and we love you and I hope that 2024 will be your "redemption" year. Bring yourself back to you and be ready for it. Happy New Year Dan. I love you - Anthony Ramirez.
Dan whenever you don't feel like making content just remember that you have millions of fans who love you and your content so we would be fine if you took a break sometime. Much love!!! #TeamTDM 💙💙💙 and continue to make us laugh!
My parents won't allow me to be a member cause they don't want to buy it. I've been a fan since 2015 and I still watch ur videos on a daily basis. Amazing work Dan !! You've made my childhood!! 💙
I understand if you want to chillout more Dan. Thank you for everything you have done it's crazy how far you have come and you now have 2 kids to look after. Thank you so much for everything.❤ I am also looking forward to your return to Shady Oaks.
i started watching when i was around 7-8 and now im 17 - deff right in saying that a lot of us r older and the newer gens wont know dan😢 i still come to watch from time to time, but obviously growing up comes with its cons
If the stupid robot made by Amazon is right I am gen alpha but I've been watching Dan's videos for 8 years. I don't enjoy stuff like skibidi toilet. infact I actually hate it
Happy New Year Dan! I hope this year is bright and peaceful for your sons Asher and Miles. Great job for not giving up on RU-vid even after having two children to take care of. I’ve been a fan for over seven years. I still watch your vids and enjoy them because they never get old!
Dan I was 10 when I first started watching you… I’m turning 20 this year and I STILL watch you I think I’m subscribed to almost all of your accounts on RU-vid aswell 😅 so yes a lot of your fan base has grown up and watched you growing up. I have seen how far you’ve come since the beginning and I’m proud of you for it. Whatever you have to do to keep enjoying your job and hobby DO IT I’m all for it.
So glad to see a content creator actually taking their own mental health seriously and not just dumping content all the time. And, if you are looking for a game that you can do chilled out streams for, I would highly recommend the indie title Hollow Knight.
Honestly mate, that's got to have been the scariest title ever 😂. But seriously, thank you so much for having put out these videos last year. You're really such a kind and caring RU-vidr and streamer and I guess some of these decisions are quite fair considering you can be more close to your fans and enjoy what you're doing. I hope this year goes well for you and you're able to rest and recover! Thanks Dan
this is such a good idea!! This was such a peaceful and relaxing video and it felt like we were really hearing Dan and connecting with him. Excited to watch the new streams!!
I have personally been watching for 10 years since I was 8 back in 2014 and am now a senior in high school. I’ve grown up watching you and always enjoyed the content. Do what you want, much love to you man❤.
Honestly, I really like those types of streams. Just kinda doing random stuff with the community, connecting again, and just being very casual without a plan. Those seem like the most fun streams.
I’m very excited for this year. I love the fact that you want to connect with us and you open up to us, it brings you and us so much closer together. All I really want is for you to take care of yourself and your mental health, your wife, and your children, because you deserve it a hundred times over. Sending lots of love from the United States 💙
Man, I’ve been around Dan’s channel since before I had this account, in the glory days of Trayaurus, Craig the Mailman, all the mod videos, and I’m so happy seeing you and your family have come so far.
Thank you so much for uploading this part of the stream, Dan! :) I'm sure that everyone is super excited to see more of your upcoming creative projects and future videos now that we know what to expect of you! Personally, I'm hyped to see you do streams where you draw, create music, or even make a game! I'm really looking forward to seeing you play Shady Oaks, too! Or any other game, really! I just love your chill streams in general and it makes me really happy to hear that you plan to do more of them! Also, thank you for answering my questions about Shady Oaks and the QSMP (I'm guessing that you'll tweet about it separately), I appreciate it a lot! 💖
i’m glad you’re leaning towards content for older audiences! as someone who’s been keeping up for 11-10 years now it’s been super cool growing up with you!! keep it up!
I respect your choice dan, making a member only chat will enhance the streams alot i think, might not become one in a while, but i hope to chat with my favourite youtuber some day, been a fan for 9 years now. Hope you had a nice christmas and a happy new year dan, have a good one.
Bro it's awesome you still make content and you're still so chill, I grew up watching you when I was little and now I'm almost 18 and still watch your videos regularly. you're awesome Dan!
I mean hey, do whatever you want. I’m happy just watching. I’m glad you’re taking steps to make sure you’re happy with your career. A lot of creators nowadays forget the enjoyment of creating, and it’s slowly become quantity over quality. I’ve watched you since the first video posted in this channel, and I’m glad to say, I’ve stayed a loyal fan til this day, due to how “done to earth” you are. I’ve grown up with your channel, and I’m glad you’re catering your content to the generation you started with. Much thanks Dan, you were and are a big influence to many aspects of my life
dan do whatever you want! i really like the long series videos and i really dont mind them! would rather those than daily videos where you stress yourself out and whatever not. thank you for all the content so far, i started watching you when i was 10 and now im 17. love you take care and thank you dan
I remember when I was 10 running home and lying on my bed and watching you on my tablet now I’m turning 18 this year … and still look forward to every video and you have changed but to me it’s a good change because it seems like you have matured with me in a way thank you for making videos
may have joined the team a little late (2017/18) but i’ve loved these past seven or so years of content you’ve put out :D i’m almost 16 now, going into exams later this year and your positivity is one of the tings to take my mind off the stress :) here’s to another great year of tdm :)
I’ve been roughly watching since 8th grade, so probably 2014-2015 ish (been a while now so I forget without doing the math😂) I love the idea of chilling out. I don’t mind waiting more for edited or “polished” videos on the main channel, because that usually means it’s something you’re passionate about. There’s a difference when you’re making videos you care about vs not, and it’s even more fun to watch for us when you’re having fun! ❤️ if you want to branch out more on the main channel besides just games I’m all for that. I LOVED the Pokémon TCG video!! thanks for all you’ve done Dan! Watching your videos with my siblings growing up was a bonding time for us.
You deserve all the time you want to be with your family and take a break! I love when you make videos, but I don't expect them too frequently. I've been watching since the beginning and love all of your family-friendly, funny content! 💙💙💙
ok I don't comment on videos much anymore, but dan I have been watching you since around 2014-2015 which was like 4th or fifth grade. Now im 18 turning 19 on the 23rd this month. So ive been watching you since around then and that was before I knew I could make a RU-vid account and use the app and not go through safari every time. You have been my comfort and favorite RU-vidr for a very long time now. because ive been here for so long I know I can say that all of us love and care for you deeply. remember its ok to take breaks, and we would much rather you do that than burn yourself out with feeling like you need to do stuff that you're not enjoying nor proud/like something you put out and we would all much rather you put out stuff that you are happy to put out. you're important to me and all the other millions of people you have touched. we want you to do what's best FOR YOU, NOT US, YOU. We will always support you no matter what you chose to do. NOW AS SOMEONE WHO DOESNT USE TWITTER/X VERY MUCH WHEN I READ THE TF ON THE THUMBNAIL I THOUGHT IT WAS A FAKE ACCOUNT BECAUSE IT CAUGHT ME VERY OFF GAURD HAHA. anyways remember we all love you and care for you and we will always support whatever you choose to do💙💙💙
One thing I've always admired about you Dan since your early streams is you always tried communicating with your viewers. Even with how challenging it is with how many people tune in you still try to reply to people in the chat and I remember you used to call out the names of people who donated and sometimes that took a large portion of the stream 😂 Do whichever you want to do, man. (also yes the majority of your audience are older teens now)
it's okay if you need to pull back and do more chill steams and do whatever else you want, we will be here and still enjoy your content. Can't wait to see what you do this year Dan whatever you do
Hey Dan, I actually feel that way just because that you post on Twitter it’s not easy to think about positive sided but it’s okay, we all are here to support you and each one of us! Create new memories Love your vids
keep doing whats best for you dan I watched you when I first saw one of your old videos in the lab with grim and Dr. Tray! I never got to actually sub to you back then because I never managed to get an account but now I do now i have subscribed!!
Dan, its entirely up to you about when are what your content is going to be. If people are stressing you out to much just do what you feel like! Also looking forward for 2024!
I have been watching you for 7 years and I think you’re an amazing person and you should chill out and do what you want. Btw if you want to do chill streams you can steam when the new little nightmares 3 comes out. I think that would be a ton of fun. Take care
Omg Dan I love the fact you've changed over the years from shy to confidential so I am really happy with what you've done also love the hair 💈 and also can u do the Minecraft video again I miss them if u can thank u😊🎉 also happy new year 🎉
Sending love, take your time. I've been a fan since 2016 and Dan has been the one channel that I've always stuck with. Really love how he's been able to grow with his audience instead of sticking to one age group and letting old fans faze out. We love you Dan 🩵
I have been watching you since I was like 3 or 4 and now I'm into my early teens and I have enjoyed it the whole time, whatever you do, you will make Millions smile and laugh
Hey Dan, I've grown up watching you, you've been one of my favourite RU-vidrs since i started watching youtube way back when. (I've been around since the Minecraft Escapists.) As one of your mid-teens audience members who also watches with younger siblings, I admire the real-ness with your viewers and not over-hyping things, but i do really enjoy the stuff made with younger audiences in mind. I used to love the videos where you played random games or the smaller games that weren't well-known and it was just you enjoying a funny game and us enjoying the break from life and laughing along with you. Take care not to burn yourself out, your family obviously comes first, and I'm looking forward to more content this year.
Happy new year Dan, and if you're looking for a new game to play I'd suggest trying the calisto protocol though it'd might be a bit brutal but it's just and idea
I would love to see more music from you Dan! That or other creative projects you like. It wouldn’t do as well on the main channel so I would honestly say keeping gaming going there when you do while making the stream channel or a new one focused around passion projects could work well. Just a thought! I’ll stick around for whatever though :)
Yes please do art/music streams. I don't even really watch your gaming stuff anymore, my main gaming videos that I watch now are just video essays. Been getting into drawing myself recently, so I'd love to see you do it. I've also enjoyed when you tried making music in the past. Just curious, what type of art and music do you usually make? I've never made music, but for art I'm trying to draw in an anime like style.
I know this is late Dan, but personally, I really enjoyed that react stuff that you did w/ your fans a couple years back. The reddit and discord challenges were so entertaining. If you enjoyed doing that, I'm sure a lot of your fans would as well. It also appeals to both your older subs and younger ones. With that being said, you take all the time off to decide as you want! We will stick with you all the way!
