let's talk about buzzfeed | Devin But Better 

From every “why I left Buzzfeed” video I’ve seen, Buzzfeed seems like a training camp for future digital media careers. When it’s time to leave, it’s time to leave

I didn’t even know anything happened with ladylike until this video randomly came up on my feed.

Anyone else on a "why I left buzzfeed" marathon? Love this whole generation of buzzfeed content creators. So glad they are all in better, happier places now.

Is it just me or does Devin look a lot happier and more glowing after she left buzz feed?

just saw kristin and jen's vid which led me here. best of luck to you. subscribed.

I really feel like there is a whole Era of Buzzfeed that is coming to an end. Safiya left, The Try Guys left, a bunch of people were laid off, Chantel left, The Ghoul Boys left and took Steven with them. I'm sure there's more that I don't know. I'm really just waiting to hear that the rest of Ladylike, Worth It, and so many more people have left. I have I feel like I'm going to stop watching Buzzfeed soon because no one is there that I like. Update: Chantell left months ago, she has her own channel as well (Chantel Houston) The Ghoul Boys technically left though they are doing a new season of Unsolved. Their channel, that Steven Lim works at too, is Watcher.

Idk why everyone is so shocked when people leave a job - I have left a job almost almost every 2 years it’s NORMAL (now at least) we are not in our parents age of staying at a job for 10+yrs

It seemed like you almost started to tear up when you called yourself boring. I'm sure you're not boring, that's just something your insecurities tell yourself.

when i loved buzzfeed i found it really sad when people left. but now that i don’t anymore it’s awesome when i see people quitting it’s pretty exciting because buzzfeed gave them a start and now they’re making their own success.

"What should I do if I'm ovulating" "Take it all out" Jesus I laughed so hard my sides hurt

I really feel like everyone on buzzfeed that I loved is gone now. Like all the people from 5-6 years ago have moved on to greater and hopefully better things.

I'M SO HAPPPPPPPPY FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!!! Get in that Corolla and get to going places girlfriend!!!!!!!! THE FUTURE IS SO BRIGHT!

Is it bad that after she said she was still friends with the ladies I was satisfied enough? Hoping all your future endeavors are fruitful

When you called heterosexuality "the straights" 😂

"Freddie and I are scheming to get husbands" hahahah good luck finding the prince charming 😆

If your freelance job is full time than you should be paid a full time salary. None of this permalancd crap.

"What should i do if i feel like im ovulating?" "Take it out, take it all out" NO HESITATION 🤣😭

I need Ladylike to do a Try Guys and form a new company

Dylan really said "I'm straight, but not by choice"

So happy to hear you and the crew over on "The Kitchen and JORN show" are going better and exploding post-BuzzFeed and will continue to into 2021. Just found you all again and what to wish you all the best. Looking forward to your online content when it goes up next.

I just really hope she starts talking about starkid again

I’m so proud of you, there’s literally an entire generation of buzzfeed OG’s leaving and y’all are thriving YOU GO GIRL... am now going to go and re watch all you’re ladylike content *cries* BUT PROUD OF YOU

Me: I'm finally able to separate Devin from her time in Starkid and recognize her as her own talented person Devin: I can see Hogwarts from my office window Me:... Me: I think we're goin' back

Holy shit she's at NBC!! I'm so happy for her!! 😃 I'm gonna miss her like crazy but I'm so happy for her!

When she sang that “I’m a 31 years old lady who like domestic things” that hit me! And I’m 21, I’m boring too 😂😂😂

On every video about leaving buzzfeed it feels like the company is holding a gun to the creator's head when they're like "No hate to buzzfeed I love them and it must be very hard to run a company they've made mistakes but ultimately-" Like I know they're probably being genuine it's just funny 🤣

I feel like the younger generation honestly thinks youtube is the height of job goals/life goals. What they don't realize is that its all been done now.. youtube is getting stale and the bubble will eventually burst. This market is too saturated to last.

She painted with her period blood, I ain’t forget.

I watched Jen and Kristin’s video and though, “Oh my god, I hope Devin leaves too,” and here you are!!

I'm gonna be honest, I didn't like her when she was in Ladylike but now she seems like a really cool person, so I'm subscribed now lmao who would've thought

When she sang Jenna Marbles song I literally died 😂😂

Dear Dev- as a person who was molested and raped by 3 different men in my life, you have made me feel free. I love your personality and spirit. Eventually I went to rehab for my troubles. You inspired me. Thank you for posting your vulnerability and awareness on being abused. It helps to speak up

Buzzfeed hires and hired young creatives, and like any young person these content creators grew, had new wishes, new needs, new goals, and seeing them grow out of buzzfeed and into their own has been so satisfying ! all of them are doing their own thing! and being happy with it!

I hate to be shallow when you’re talking about your career... but you look AMAZING!!

Interesting that you’re excited about working with men...as a woman in STEM, I would kill to work with and be around more women

Everyone who was great at Buzzfeed is leaving to bigger and better things, I'm glad you took this step too Devin 💕

I literally laughed so hard when you explained the straights.

This is legitimately the first time I KNOW there is some tea somewhere, but I don’t want it. Seeing Devin and Chantal so happy...I just want to see the rest of the ladies happy too. This brought me so much joy and positivitea 😉😘

I Def get upset when I hear all my favorite people are no longer on buzzfeed. But they're only doing BETTER. & I know I definitely proud of you Devin. You deserve this & even more blessings. You're dope, just accept it. Love, light, abundance, & healing to you. You're da ish 😘💜

A big thing I’ve noticed with a lot of folks who leave Buzzfeed is that they used it for what it was meant for. A platform. Buzzfeed gives you exposure to cool networking opportunities, media, etc. All of the OGs went with the current of the company and is now utilizing what they’ve learned into new spaces. It’s very exciting to see people I love move on to new endeavors. Devin has always had an interest in news and I think she is on the path to an incredible journey! Love you Devin ❤️😘

Love ya lady

“Take it out. Take it all out. “ exactly what I want to do every 28 days. 😂

I was sad when I found out Devin left Lady like but seeing she is moving on to something she loves and is excited for makes me really happy for her . Plus I'm envious of her office I want to look at Hogwarts everyday

Giving men a fun size snickers like its Halloween every time they correctly answer a question about women's anatomy

You're responsible for the cats - yup, that is exactly what I would say to my bf before surgery. My 5 lovely rescues

When you're bi and you get to have "the straights" AND "the gays" lol

"Take it out. Take it all out." BEST RESPONSE EVER! LOL

this video: *randomly shows up in my recommended* me: cHO CHANG

I knew buzzfeed as a total Shhhh Show, But I never had any idea how great the peopple are who used to work there until I looked into how Buzzfeed went under. You are a great person and I am glad everything works so great for you!

Devin: "How many ovaries do i have?" Guy: lol..... wait....... two!.... two.... right?? Devin: "What should I do if i feel like I'm ovulating?" Drew: "Take it out. Take it all out." Drew is my favorite

When Drew said "take it out. take it all out." I literally choked on my water 😭😭😭 5:27

Everything is moving towards long-form, meaningful content online. A trend that is very much at odds with Buzzfeed's business model. I for one am very excited to see your videos of your career as it grows and lifting up others who need to have their creative voice heard. I run my own digital business and its something that I'm super passionate about too. I don't if you use Linkedin but Imma gonna send you a request anywhoo.

Wait... If you can see Hogwarts from your window... Does it feel like you’re goin back????

Sooo I took a nice little year(ish) hiatus from the internet. I used to watch a fuck ton of RU-vid and stuff before, and then unfortunately I had a SERIOUS medical problem.. my intestines perforated and I almost damn near died. *AKA: I had a hole in my intestines which means everything was leaking out of my intestines into my abdominal cavity and I ended up having 4 MAJOR surgeries within a span of a week and landed myself hospitalized for a month. I left the hospital with an ileostomy bag and a 6 INCH OPEN INCISION across my stomach that required a machine called a woundvac. That machine basically means I have a nurse come to my house every 2 days and re-pack that massive 6 inch long incision with a sponge-like material with a vacuum suction completely sealing everything. The vacuum suction is attached to a tube leading into the woundvac, so as my body is trying to heal all of the... Blood/juices inside my gaping wound are being sucked out so it stays nice and clean and better able to heal itself. So yes, every few days I went through agonizing pain to rip off that tape, unpack my wound, clean it, and re-pack it. That alone lasted about 4 months. And just for a better mental image.. yeah it was about 5 to 6 inches in length but it was also extremely deep. Like almost an entire hand ✋ deep. IT FUCKING SUCKED. And yes I actually did try to make that as "least gross" as possible because I promise you that's only 5% of the entire story as it is.* Anyways after that pointless story... After all of that you can imagine how rough a shape I was in. No mental energy so being on my phone and watching RU-vid wasn't the first thought to cross my mind for awhile. Not until I was in the clear of not passing away from all of that. So once I was able to actually comprehend what was going on around me and actually focus my attention again, I was able to get back into my entertainment. I could never find any new videos of your fucking HILARIOUS group of badass individuals. So I gave up. But about a month ago I saw you and some of the other ladies in videos and realized why I hadn't been seeing anything! It doesn't help that I forgot all of my passwords and had to remake my social accounts. Plus I'm a dumbass and I'm forgetful from all the anesthesia so I totally forgot a lot of my favorite creators. Sorry for rambling on, I'm just happy to have stumbled upon you and the other ladies and their content. I want you all to thrive and be happy and healthy and loving what you all do!

she started as Cho Chang in a very potter musical and now she's here... WOW shes awesome.

You should make a collab with some of the original ladies from ladylike in the future!!😄 It would also be cool if ladylike had it's own channel like the try guys!😁 but idk if that's possible🤔

You are not boring, you’re hilarious ❤️ also, props to you for being so respectful to buzzfeed and your friends there. Very refreshing ☺️ thank you!

I loved her on buzzfeed. But for me she will always be “cho Chang y’all”

devin is such a boss role modle like qirl slayyyyyyyy, she has been through so much and has been able to pull herself out of the things that havent worked for her. devin you are some one i look up to and i hope yuou continue to do amazing things. you are a beautiful human

Fun fact - one of your stock pics is plastered on the window of my dentist's office. I think the one of the "smiling family". Whenever I go to the dentist, I'm like "Oh there's Devin again!" 😂😂

As a 30-year old always surrounded by twenty-somethings, this is a very relatable want. It's also very relatable enjoying being the person people go to. Good luck in your endeavors and I'll be here for the videos when uploaded!

Now that devin has left buzzfeed I finally can stop watching buzzfeed all together lol

Homie that suggested you just "take it all out" was 100% correct, whenever I'm ovulating or on my period I always beg my fiance to just rip that shit out.

As a almost 40yr old “old” lady I have to say you are amazing and congratulations on your next chapter in life! 💕

lets talk about buzzfeed but doesnt actually talk about buzzfeed

I kind of want to be bummed but I cant because I'm so excited for you and this next phase of your lfie! Congratulations on your new chapter 🖤

This video coming after your stories with the Ladylike ladies from last night warms my heart 💜 Hope your mum will get better and best of luck on anything life will bring you! You'll always be one of my favourite, most inspiring ladies 💜

i started smiling so hard when she got excited about her new job 🥺

The whole time Im like "she needs to talk about how she gets her hair to be awesome" and then you said you will, yay!

When she was talking about being a boss I was thinking, “yeah she’s my Cho Chang for sure”

I always knew Devin has big dreams and wont settle for buzzfeed, as cool as a company it may have been for her. Proud of Devin! I always believed she was meant for great things, and got the vibe that she knew it too. :) stay humble, but dont deny yourself of being an ambitious and powerful lady 😊

I feel like I’ve had to watch a lot of people grow into new things lately and sometimes leave behind other things. Change and growth are good though. I really value your bravery and I’m so glad that you are enjoying your new work so much!

How am I seeing this just now? And same with Kristen and Jens story too? Has the tea been spilt somewhere else? What is life? Lol jk

I'm so excited for you girl! It's not a weird or unreasonable thing to want a change of job, people do that all the time and it's awesome that you're loving it!

“Take it out” thats the best answer I’ve ever heard lmao

I feel like THIS is the real Devin. THIS is the Devin we’ve been waiting for!!

When you said you like being the boss bitch in the room, producing, and having the plans, I felt that and knew the capricorn in you resonated with the cap in me lol

Yay for you Devin! I think we need to learn how to switch careers when a better option comes along and feel guilted to stay where we are. I’m so proud of you for getting to do what you’ve wanted to and I know you’re going to kill it! Good luck!

"The straights" I feel so much better saying this than, "oh I'm straight". God, someone who finally gave me some bomb ass wording lol

Hogwarts cool. That minion though? It’s like a dream and a nightmare all in one.

If you were to ever join another starkid production, oh my gosh I would be living for it

I knew something was up. I was seeing less of you on Ladylike and then Chantal left. I figured y'all were parting ways and doing your own thing. Still love you all though. Best of luck!!

I would love to see content that is educational and inspirational from Devin. Don't get me wrong, i like videos about hair and makeup and beauty, but what about being a producer, what does that mean, how do you become one, what do you need to study, what is the path like, how is it to work in a corporation with mostly men, how to be heard in a room full of men.. how to be a strong, independent woman in the 21 century working a job that most of us don't even fully understand what it is like and what does a day at work looks like, or what projects look like from start to finish. DO A MASTERCLASS but on youtube. Also, what is the difference between a content creator and a digital producer?

She seems so happy and for some reason reminds me of Cristine from SimplyNailogical

I knew the ladies would start leaving soon, the Lady Like videos that they produced seemed forced and as if they weren't genuinely having fun anymore. Either way artists developed its time for a new chapter and I'm here for it !

I miss you Ladylike girls so much! I understand that you can't "spill the tea" because of ongoing negotiations and not wanting to burn any bridges, but it would be interesting to see why so many people are leaving! Will we see Kristin, Freddie, and Jen post updates any time soon? I feel like I know you all and I miss seeing you (via RU-vid)!!

When you just find out that Devin left Buzzfeed 😯😯😯

She called us “beautiful nerds” sooooooooo I think she must be a fan of 99% Invisible 💛

Devin! You are seriously so inspiring! Thank you for always being you. Unapologetically you.

Congrats on forging a new path in your life, wishing you nothing but the best!💯 We love ya Devin💜

“Take it out, take it all out” 🤣🤣🤣

I was just wondering about ladylike and if people left earlier today. Glad I stumbled across this. Good luck!

"take it out. take it all out."

Devin, I love the confidence and professionalism- you are so genuine and I'm proud you're chasing your dreams!

The fact that you can also see a giant minion from your office window is pretty awesome too ! Wishing you all the best of everything xo

Yayyyy Devin’s back!! I was just wondering when you’d post something! Miss you and the Ladylike crew. You have inspired me so much to just go after my dreams and you’ve inspired me to create my own RU-vid channel. I would be so so honored if you would check it out. Love you Devin!

Devin: I work across from Hogwarts. Me: My little StarKid heart ❤️

No matter your choices Devin, I'll keep following your life story. Been following since the Starkid days almost. Love you so much. And proud of you for doing what's right for you!

“Take it out take it all out”

Yo I’m glad I don’t have the “straights”
