Why BuzzFeed Died in The Most Satisfying Way

Buzzfeed peaked in August 2015 with 377 million views per month but the channel barely gets 30 million views a month these days most of which comes from older more popular uploads. Over the years Buzzfeed has also had many layoffs, leadership issues and company-wide pay-cuts.

Ryan and Shane from Buzzfeed Unsolved seemed to keep Buzzfeed afloat for a while but with them gone (along with many other well loved stars like the Try Guys, Safiya Nygaard, The Kitchen & Jorn Show, Megan Boykoff, Quinta Brunson, Vida Armonia, Kelsey Impicciche, Vlogbrothers etc.) the platform doesn’t seem to have anything going for it anymore.

All of this was confirmed by an epically bad stock market IPO debut, which saw BuzzFeed lose almost all its share value on its first day on the market.
