YouTuber Tom Scott retires from weekly uploads after 10 years YouTube: Tom ScottOne of YouTube\u2019s most popular video creators, Tom Scott, has announced that he will no longer be posting weekly videos \u2013 exactly 10 years after he started doing so. Tom Scott\u2019s channel is beloved by fans for his informative and entertaining content, with a relaxed delivery, often breaking down fascinating but often niche facts or topics, such as why you can\u2019t buy Dasani water in the UK, or a visual representation of $1 million vs $1 billion. Incredibly, Scott managed to make a new one of these videos every single week for a decade, but it has taken a toll, and now, he is putting his consistent YouTube schedule on the back burner. Did Tom Scott quit YouTube? Although not totally stopping content creation, Tom Scott has confirmed that he will no longer continue to post a video every single week, calling it a retirement of sorts. In fact, he announced the decision exactly 10 years after the first video in the weekly series, back in 2014. Although the video was titled \u201cAfter ten years, it\u2019s time to stop making videos,\u201d it\u2019s not a complete stop, as he explains later that sporadic uploads may continue, as well as his podcast episodes and other projects. But, sadly for his fans, there will no longer be a consistent, weekly video posted. Tom concluded the video with a montage of some of the channel\u2019s greatest moments, which include some truly wild adventures and experiences. The \u2018goodbye\u2019 video racked up almost 5 million views in a day, and reached number 2 on YouTube\u2019s trending section. Tom\u2019s channel has over 6 million subscribers as of his \u2018retirement\u2019 date. On social media, one viral post shared a classic meme video, which compiles Tom visiting far-fetched and bizarre locations, all of which were for his channel. Fellow YouTubers left comments thanking Tom for his work and inspiration to them. \u201cYour approach to quality, accuracy, accountability and accessibility has made YouTube a better place,\u201d said YouTuber Jay Foreman. \u201cThank you for being a beacon of integrity, and a shining example of how to do this exactly right.\u201d \u201cCongrats Tom,\u201d said renowned author John Green, who has over 3 million subscribers as one half of the VlogBrothers. YouTuber Rare Earth commented, \u201cThe best to ever do it. Congrats on an incredible decade Tom.\u201d For now, fans will have to look out for what else Tom has planned outside of his main channel uploads.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
