We've finally reached the point where zoomers like myself can finally be nostalgic over things. One of the things I feel the most nostalgic for is the countdown community, an area of YouTube that was dedicated to amateur top 10 videos. And that's what I'm going to be covering today. So get ready because I'm about to cover everything: Channels like Joshscorcher and Alex Rochon/The Autarch of Flame that made the community what it once was, channels that stood out like Wambu, Fawful's Minion, and Rabbidluigi, and what ultimately caused the community to fade into obscurity. Grab some popcorn because I'm about to tell you all about the community that sparked my interest in video editing.
