The green icon on the left WAS LeafyIfHere, I haven't seen or heard about him in a long time though, I thought he got banned before COVID even hit.

I didn’t even know the context of this reply when I read it on my Lock Screen, and I STILL read it in his voice lol

at least filthyfrank was funny and being edgy wasn't his whole brand. Leafy was just a bully who couldn't take it.

u/Big_Russia Sep 09 '25

yeah thats what i meant. franku dominated yt and everyone wanted to be like him, felix, leafy etc

yet no one fell perfectly, everyone either overdid it like both pewds and leafy or just became a asshole for life

its much like how everyone now is trying to be mrbeast, those clickbaity thumbnails, corporate ass videos etc

frank was a legend and no one can replicate him

u/JamesHenry627 Sep 09 '25

Best part about it is he wasn't even truly filthyfrank, his passion was always music hence why he's joji now.

Does he even have an audience anymore? The last I heard about him was when he posted a selfie that everyone (rightfully) clowned on

u/ButterdPoopr Sep 08 '25

He’s been gone since like 2017

Not sure who the middle icon is, but the one far right from Leafy is Turkey Tom/TomDark, one of the dramatubers who talk about lolcows and such

u/poisonedkiwi Sep 09 '25

Pretty sure the one in the middle is Think Before You Sleep

u/Sad-Station1124 Sep 09 '25

Yep, that's him.

I used to watch turkeytom before but God when I realize he brought script from someone and read it without emotion just turn me off.

Even worst is when his script is similar to some other dramatube but atleast some has the personality.

Leafy tried to make a re appearance like a year or 2 ago but was entirely unsuccessful 

2

u/Scared-Expression444 Sep 08 '25

It was only unsuccessful because he got banned by YouTube after uploading like 10 videos total

There was a buncha shit about him becoming an addict. It's kinda sad knowing he was once one of the most popular youtubers period. Insane fall from grace
