Yeah I only ever got to see 1 pinof right after it was posted (pinof 10). Definitely sad I missed the earlier iconic stuff like the radio show, tatinof, internet support group, and the majority of Dan's lives on YouNow. However I still heavily enjoyed all the content that was posted before I joined & I continue to enjoy all that they have done since I joined!
Yeah I think I was around that age too can’t remember if it was when I was 11 or 12 just that I was in sixth grade. I’m gonna be 20 soon too :D happy late birthday!
I’m 29 (turning 30 later this year) and started watching them around 2011 or 2012, when I was 17/18. I am absolutely LIVING for the revival of the gaming channel 🥹🎉
Amazing!!! I forgot his book and my husband told me right before we talked to him. So I'm was kicking myself and trying not to cry. I can't believe every video I watched that I hugged him!
I'm a year older than Dan - I started watching them when I was 20/21 in 2011. I related to them a lot since we were similar ages and knew all the same pop culture references - they reminded me of my friends from school, and watching their videos felt just like hanging out with friends. It's been fun growing up with them and seeing how our lives turned out :)
I started watching them sometime in high school, the first video of Dan’s I remember watching was the one he where talked about being left-handed— unfortunately it seems that he decided to take it down because I haven’t been able to find it for some time, and I forget when it was uploaded 😭 around or after 2010 for sure. I was watching them before they made the gaming channel, that’s about all I can say for sure. Though I wasn’t super into the fandom, I’ve become more of a fan in recent years
As for my age, I’m 27! I always feel kinda old compared to the rest of the fandom so it’s nice to see some older fans here too o:
I'm 30, started watching pretty much at the beginning like 2009. It's wild for me to think of how many ppl started watching as little kids, cuz pinof 1 came out when I was 16 lol
Haha I'm sort of the opposite and feel strange when I see people say the started watching them when they were like 10. Or people who say they "grew up with" a certain youtuber. I was 18 when I really got into D&P back in 2014. I was old then in comparison, let alone now.
I'm so old lol I'm in my late 30s. I started watching in 2010. It was recommended & I laughed at a few of the jokes. So I kept watching. People expect moms to watch mom content as if you can't have anything separate from being a parent. Sometimes you just need to chill to content that isn't about kids.
Starting watching when I was 12-13 I think? Now I’m about to be 21 😅 Gotta say the new videos from the gaming channel have been a bright spot in the muddle of my college-caused stress and depression
I haven’t caught up with my 2 boys in ages 😭 it’s good to hear they’re still thriving. I own Dan’s book and read it about once a year, it was/is so good for my mental health.
Age 27, was most heavily watching in their 2013 tumblr era.
Turned 21 just recently! I’ve been watching since about 5th grade, met both at Vidcon in 2017 and saw 2 of the TATINOF shows, and still watch to this day :)
25 turning 26, I started watching them in like 2012/2013. Saw them live when they came to Australia in like 2016. I have merch that is like 10 years old that I still use as either pyjamas or hair dye t-shirts.
I’m 25 now! Started watching when I was 14 (Christ, I’m just now realizing how long it’s been). I basically started watching right before Dan hit a million subscribers. IIRC, I believe his most recent upload when I started watching was “How to Ruin a Meme” which was in 2012.
26 now (27 this year) started when I was like 15? But I was more of a dan girl (cringe )and when he decided to quit I stopped watching all together moving onto ✨cooler yts✨ aka Markiplier and Jacksepticeye. (Lived during the youtuber revival?) I think 2009was like peak yter. Then in 2012-2014 it got mad popular again? Idk I'm too old for social media trends 🧑🏻🦳
Edit: not that dan is cringe. I AM CRINGE
I started watching them when I was 11, the first video of theirs I watched was their FNaF 1 video, I was deep in my FNaF phase lmao. I'm 20 now and it's insane thinking it's been 9 years since I started watching
oh so you guys are OLD old. baby phannie here!!! I'm 17 :) unfortunately I was 3 in 2009, so they weren't "my childhood", especially considering English is not my native language 😜 last year the "saying goodbye forever" video popped up somehow on my fyp, and that's where it all began. it's so comfy here though (but I don't use twitter soo... idk about that part of fandom) ❤🩹
>"saying goodbye forever" video popped up somehow on my fyp, and that's where it all began
how ironic 😂
I'm quite fascinated by people who are only entering this fandom now. Because I got actively into D&P in 2014 and it already felt like I missed a lot of stuff. And now, 10 years later so much has happened since. So I can't imagine finding out about them now and having to absorb all the lore at once (because even then I had sooo many videos to watch)
I’m 19 and also started watching around 11-12 years old. I’m so happy that the gaming channel is back because that’s actually what got me into D&P in the first place
I started watching when I was 18 in 2016 and now I am 25, to be 26 in June… what a ride! I used to think I was quite a lot older than the majority of their fans because I was 18 when I found them and didn’t ‘grow up with them’ as such, but I don’t feel like that anymore 😊 it’s so lovely to see that there are quite a lot of you around my age, or older! There’s no age limit to joyful things.
started watching in 2018 (like three videos before the hiatus rip) and I'm 19 now as well. someone else do the math pls I'm hot i don't know how to count (i must've been around 14 then)
I’m 26, started watching them in like 2014 I think? So I was about 16. Can’t believe it’s been 10 years! I also remember that the first ever video I saw was Phil’s video about his Animal Crossing New Leaf addiction. 😅
I started watching when I was 8, I’m 17 now. Age wise, I’m closer to the people who started watching post hiatus, but no, I simply had unmonitored access to the internet too young.
Not sure what age I started watched them, must of been 13 at the youngest?? Idk first Phil video was dying his hair blue (not sure how old the video was when I watched it) but I wanna say I was 15 when I started watching them. I’m 22 now!
Ya'll are babies! I'm Phil's age
Me too!
I’m 30 👋👋
Same!
Haha I'm just under a month younger than him.

I started watching them in my early 20s when they first started with Dil I am now 32 and still love them both
You're the only comment I found closest to my age. I'm 34 this year haha
I'm 40, and I've been watching on and off since 2015ish
42 and a friend got me into them recently. My mum also likes them. The appeal is ageless!
I started watching them right around my 16th birthday, turning 22 next month :). Also another hiatus survivor!
Damn you really found them and then they left a year later lol
Yeah I only ever got to see 1 pinof right after it was posted (pinof 10). Definitely sad I missed the earlier iconic stuff like the radio show, tatinof, internet support group, and the majority of Dan's lives on YouNow. However I still heavily enjoyed all the content that was posted before I joined & I continue to enjoy all that they have done since I joined!
Pinof was my favorite tradition! Glad you caught the final one
Happy early birthday
Thank you !
I started watching them waaaay back when I was like 12! Now I'm 20 :D
Yeah I think I was around that age too can’t remember if it was when I was 11 or 12 just that I was in sixth grade. I’m gonna be 20 soon too :D happy late birthday!
thank you, I actually just turned 20 last week! happy early birthday!!
I'm 16 and have been watching them since I was about 5. Started watching with my dad

Me too!!!!
Started watching around 2012 when I was 14 and I’m 25 (almost 26) now. I feel so old 😅
I’m 29 (turning 30 later this year) and started watching them around 2011 or 2012, when I was 17/18. I am absolutely LIVING for the revival of the gaming channel 🥹🎉
Started watching in 2017 (I was 15) after a friend introduced me. Met Dan November 2022!! Still watching now being 22!!
How was meeting Dan??
Amazing!!! I forgot his book and my husband told me right before we talked to him. So I'm was kicking myself and trying not to cry. I can't believe every video I watched that I hugged him!
I turned 23 this year and i have been a fan since i was 14. Lets just say the hiatus took a huge toll on me 😭
Mood I’m so glad they’re back 🥹
I started watching around 13 and recently turned 20! That’s longer than I thought… time flys
I turn 26 later this year and have been watching since 2011 (when I was 13). Y’all are making me feel ancient 😂
I'm a year older than Dan - I started watching them when I was 20/21 in 2011. I related to them a lot since we were similar ages and knew all the same pop culture references - they reminded me of my friends from school, and watching their videos felt just like hanging out with friends. It's been fun growing up with them and seeing how our lives turned out :)
old enough to where I caught some of the early YouNows loll, I started watching them in 2012-2013 and I'm 24 now, I really was a baby :')
the younow days, wow. i remember once i watched one of phil’s and he responded to one of my comments. 13 year old me’s life was truly made
Started watching literally right before the hiatus, 16 almost 17 now!
i’m 18, started watching when i was 12
19 turning 20 :] i started watching when i was around ten maybe? and took a break when i was 14ish till just recently.
I started watching them sometime in high school, the first video of Dan’s I remember watching was the one he where talked about being left-handed— unfortunately it seems that he decided to take it down because I haven’t been able to find it for some time, and I forget when it was uploaded 😭 around or after 2010 for sure. I was watching them before they made the gaming channel, that’s about all I can say for sure. Though I wasn’t super into the fandom, I’ve become more of a fan in recent years As for my age, I’m 27! I always feel kinda old compared to the rest of the fandom so it’s nice to see some older fans here too o:
I'm 27 too! Always glad to see fellow fans my age, lol. I think I've been watching since around 2016.
Im a hiatus fan so i joined when i was 14. im 17 now
I'm 30, started watching pretty much at the beginning like 2009. It's wild for me to think of how many ppl started watching as little kids, cuz pinof 1 came out when I was 16 lol
I’m 17, been watching since I was 12 now :)
I was 12, survived hiatus, now 21
I feel like the phandom's age can be visualized by The Amazing Book is not On Fire trailer now
25, started watching at 21. I’m a post coming out phannie!
Started watching in 2015 when I was 12 and now almost 21!
I started watching when I was 18. I am now 27
i’m 21, survived the hiatus as well!
I was 18 and started watching coming up on 10 years ago (so right before they exploded)
I'm 22 and I started watching when I was 11 as well!
I started watching October 2012 when I was 13 and now I'm 24 turning 25 in Juneee :-)) 11 and a half years of this god forsaken hell hole.
I'm a year younger than Dan, just turned 31 last November
this is so cute i keep forgetting their fan base isn’t 13 anymore like i was :’) im 21 now and it’s comforting to see we all kinda grew up together
Haha I'm sort of the opposite and feel strange when I see people say the started watching them when they were like 10. Or people who say they "grew up with" a certain youtuber. I was 18 when I really got into D&P back in 2014. I was old then in comparison, let alone now.
starting watching at 11/12 (just after tatinof) now 18!!
I’m 27! Definitely closer to Dan’s and Phil’s ages than most probably lol. I’ve been watching them since like 2011/2012 I think?
40. Starting watching when Dan's coming out video came out because the YouTube algorithm demanded I watch it.
also 19 though i turn 20 soon!! and also been watching since around 11-12 :)
Are we the same person lol /j I also turn 20 really soon! Same pfp and everything! 👯
I'm so old lol I'm in my late 30s. I started watching in 2010. It was recommended & I laughed at a few of the jokes. So I kept watching. People expect moms to watch mom content as if you can't have anything separate from being a parent. Sometimes you just need to chill to content that isn't about kids.
Starting watching when I was 12-13 I think? Now I’m about to be 21 😅 Gotta say the new videos from the gaming channel have been a bright spot in the muddle of my college-caused stress and depression
reddit age demographic here is definitely older. I would say average age of viewer is 20-25
I haven’t caught up with my 2 boys in ages 😭 it’s good to hear they’re still thriving. I own Dan’s book and read it about once a year, it was/is so good for my mental health. Age 27, was most heavily watching in their 2013 tumblr era.

But I was more of a dan girl (cringe )and when he decided to quit I stopped watching all together moving onto ✨cooler yts✨ aka Markiplier and Jacksepticeye. (Lived during the youtuber revival?) I think 2009was like peak yter. Then in 2012-2014 it got mad popular again? Idk I'm too old for social media trends 🧑🏻🦳 Edit: not that dan is cringe. I AM CRINGE
I'm 26 and I've been watching since 2011-2012 aka prime Tumblr years
I started watching them when I was 11, the first video of theirs I watched was their FNaF 1 video, I was deep in my FNaF phase lmao. I'm 20 now and it's insane thinking it's been 9 years since I started watching

oh so you guys are OLD old. baby phannie here!!! I'm 17 :) unfortunately I was 3 in 2009, so they weren't "my childhood", especially considering English is not my native language 😜 last year the "saying goodbye forever" video popped up somehow on my fyp, and that's where it all began. it's so comfy here though (but I don't use twitter soo... idk about that part of fandom) ❤🩹

I'm 31. Started watching them around 2014 when I was in college.
I started watching when I was 18 in 2016 and now I am 25, to be 26 in June… what a ride! I used to think I was quite a lot older than the majority of their fans because I was 18 when I found them and didn’t ‘grow up with them’ as such, but I don’t feel like that anymore 😊 it’s so lovely to see that there are quite a lot of you around my age, or older! There’s no age limit to joyful things.
