    I’m really going to miss his videos, but I’m glad he’s ending it on a happy note rather than dragging things on when he doesn’t want to. Godspeed, Tom.

    Tom seems like one of the most genuine people on the internet, he fact checks the crap out of everything (going out of his way to issue corrections when he is wrong - which just never happens) and produced exceptionally high quality and interesting content every damn week.

    I’m slightly sad he’s giving up now only because I only discovered his channel a year or so ago and I’m not going to have new things to show my kids as they grow into an age of watching more educational content.

    I can only wish him the best of luck with whatever comes next.

    (Also, he deserves an MBE or something…)

    Every influencer/whatever should strive to be like Tom, his series is the greatest on youtube of the last decade and I’m sad to see it end.

    At the same time I’m looking forward to whatever he may try out and hopefully he’ll remain somewhat relevant even though we don’t deserve him at all.

    Amazing human from the perspective of a viewer. What a career, and what a good way to… Not ultimately fuck it up.

    Die a hero or live long enough to become the villain.

    Tom chose the former and I respect it. Well done sir. Thank you for all the great content.

    What a way to go out lol. Also, watching the clips made me realise just how much of his stuff I haven’t actually seen.
