Oh, I thought it was just a more up to date way to say 'vlogger', like how people use the term 'emoji' instead of 'emoticon'.
Vlogger stands for video blogger. Vtuber is as said before, virtual youtuber. Which technicly is a flawed term, because most of them are twitch users. Not youtubers.
Not really correct. Many internet video sites are called Tubes, as in TV Tubes. Youtube was named because its "you, on TV". So Vtuber is actually virtual tv broadcaster.
Words man, we made em up
I lost the scope of just how deep the rabbit hole goes.
Yeah, I know that's what 'vlogger' stands for, I just assumed 'vtuber' was a more modern iteration.
Well again. Emojis and emoticons aren't the same thing either ha ha
Theyre both smiley face icons, what difference could there be?
Emojis are rendered drawings, emoticons are using normal characters to make the appearance of facial expressions.
I remember them still being referred to as emoticons when they were gifs on the old message boards.
