I know this is going to sound like some clickbait bullshit title, but I’m genuinely curious, asking in good faith. My two oldest sons are enamored with him, and he seems like a genuine guy, so I’m asking - is he a nice guy? If you google the question, you get a bunch of reddit hate, which I don’t always trust, because…it’s reddit. I have not watched much content (not my thing, I’m old) but I’m just curious what the fediverse has to say.

    From his own personal content I haven’t seen a single thing that would indicate otherwise though I’m not entirely up to date with what he’s made. I think the majority of people who no longer directly work with Mr. Beast had nothing negative to say about him when they parted ways.

      I think that’s been my reservation about Mr Beast. I don’t have an issue with him recording his good deeds or whatnot. I’ve just been concerned that when you put someone up there … They’ll come out with some controversy down the road.

      So I’ve never been a fan of Mr Beast, mainly because his videos aren’t my thing. I’m not a hater neither.

      If all is on the up and up, and like you said, so far no one’s said anything negative … then more power to him. He’s also quite young, so he should have a good amount of leeway too.
