So I watched Rosemi a bit when she debuted and stopped not long too after because I was put off by tells that just did not seem to make sense and telegraphed fakeness to me.
For example in one of her very first MC streams where people got comments about her whistle-y laugh she said "yeah my family always called me the seagull in fact because of my laugh" or something like that and for some reason that elicited an "oh REALLY." reaction from me even though it doesn't seem impossible. it's just, I've never known anyone who is actually identified by their laugh IRL so it seems low odds to happen to this girl in just the way that she would try to use it for a vtuber personality and conveniently try to namedrop what she wants to be called for it all at once, etc.
Another time she was .. cooking something and fumbling with a can opener and somehow broke it and made a big explosion sound etc and that also elicited a fake feel from me. Calculated, is the word. It sounds so petty a reason to get annoyed at someone but nah it seems I was proved quite right seeing as later on she seems fake about damn near everything.
So seeing this thread and wondering "is she REALLY that bad now" I went and watched her last Minecraft stream (or rather have it on in the background still) and like an hour in she seems.. actually kind of better than my first impression of her? Still kinda fake, still a voice that's like "it's not great but I can live with it I guess" so-so but guess what, her laugh actually sounds natural now, the seagull went away. Of course since my ass has not been following hers for like half a year I can't really be sure to judge off just one stream but my reaction is "it's not THAT bad." I suppose the complaints lie more in the expectation that she was kind of trailing off in stream volume and promised to make a big comeback and only got lazier after quitting her job? Because I don't follow her closely, the frequency of streams doesn't matter much to me, but I can see how it might if I did.
