I only watched Tom Scott's because he is/was actualy decent and basicaly its the same thing you probably already know, over the years when you're successful it becomes a full time job with no benefits no vacation and an absurd requirement for a regular uninterrupted schedule. You end up sacrificing everything, your body, your mind and even your family.
Eventualy as we know either you sell out and put your face behind someone's editing and script turning your channel into a "business" or you scale down/retire. He chooses to take a break but I am confident it is likely retirement from at least that sort of regularly scheduled content.
I don't think it is necessarily about profitability, if anything some niches are paying better than ever but obviously it is very top side heavy and a small channel can barely afford minimum wage while these celebrities are richer than ever.

Matt Pat is doing the former and trying to disguise it as the latter
It's the smart move from his perspective. Imagine spending the next ten years of your life with everyone calling you the "zoomer avgn" because you read other people's scripts - no thanks!
He's really not. It's clear he's out of the cockpit, and he has no involvement at this point. He made a company and developed a solid formula for video making, carved a nice niche. Why close down the business when he could just leave? Anything that happens at this point doesn't reflect on him, unlike AVGN who was still reading the scripts and claiming the content.

AVGN lol. I know he has a family but damn it must be soul sucking to see your creation reduced to a shit load of fuck

Is he leaving completely? Or will he have ownership of the company?
pretty sure he sold off the company
