WDW changes over the few years have broken our hearts. Paying around $150 for a day ticket then having to pay to be able to get on a ride broke our spirit and desire to keep supporting Disney.

To be honest Dev, we just can't afford Disney anymore. We live in Pennsylvania and can make 2 trips down for 2 weeks at a time to Universal cheaper than 10 days at Disney. When Disney started charging parking fees at the resorts, the value resorts aren't even a value anymore. We watch everything you post because you have a great voice and personality. You engage your audience with the ability to keep us interested in whatever you're doing. Keep up the great work.

I am so inspired by where you are with everything. I want to say that I absolutely LOVE your cruise videos, especially on non Disney cruises. The cruise community doesn’t have a large variety of quality vloggers and it is so needed. I hope that if it works out for you and your family, that you can do many more cruise videos showing the different ships and ports. I met you once and you were such a kind human. You were so excited to meet me and let me know I mattered to you and your channel. That kind of soul isn’t made it’s just who you are. You were so authentic. Please never stop making videos at the other parks and especially cruises. I adore you and Bianca both and am thankful for all of your hard work. ♥️

Wow I had no idea all of this was going on! I really appreciate you taking time the time to be honest with all of us. You have gained even more respect from me! 😊 I’m so sorry your family had to go through what you did.

Thank you for explaining everything, but I honestly feel like you don’t owe anyone an explanation of why you’ve gone in a different direction for your channel. Keep being you.

PCDEV you are so right about the toxic Disney environment! Don’t worry about the haters cause you have a community that enjoys your videos. My daughter and I love your videos no matter what the topic is. Keep doing your thing! ❤️

Always appreciate your candidness! Thank you allowing us to be a part of your journey.

I felt so compelled to write in. I wanted to personally from the bottom of my heart thank you for sharing your retrospective and candor of how you feel with the negativity and toxicity you have had to endure. It saddens me to hear and learn this. Upset for you, truly I am. Thank you for all of your hard work over these past several years and the amazing content and dedication to your craft that you have provided all of us viewers with. I can only imagine all the work, care and preparation that goes into each and every new project and posting that’s released. We love you man. Please keep your spirits up, your head held high and know we all have your back and will continue to support you unconditionally. Your transparency and genuine spirit is too be commended. Never change and enjoy life and those closest to you. I will be here as will the countless others to continue on viewing from a far on this continuing journey of yours with or without the regular Disney content and the haters can all just keep on hating. Everyone please be good and most importantly be humble. Much love and respect to you and all the real fans and family. - - Mike from Philly

I’ve grown up going to Disney and now into my adulthood I’ve been going annually too - and I agree it’s just not the same world anymore. It’s been tarnished and I think it’s so many little things that add up to one big picture. Follow your heart, be true to yourself, and create what you love and what you are passionate about. It’s okay to step away and create boundaries with people and places that don’t serve us anymore!

We are all thankful for the honest comments. The negativity of humanity is real. Take time out for yourself and return on your own terms, when you are ready.

Another great video. Very sorry for the conditions that brought it, but it's good to know you're sticking around!

You should realize that you are growing. Emotionally ,mentally and worldly. It is important that you realize what your boundaries are - and what you want to get out of your videos and time. I have watched you for awhile - I have noticed your frustrations, but also that you are shifting your focus to your life. The positives. Let go of the Disney distraction- and be happy. You both deserve it.

As former pass holders, there’s nothing there to make us want to go back right now. The resort refurbs make us sad because it looks like Holiday Inn, we loved Magical Express and that’s gone, Genie + and Lightning Lane are so expensive for the family to go, the list goes on. Thanks for doing what you do and putting yourself out there. Wish you the best!

Thanks Dev for your honesty. Disney is definitely not the same and hasn’t been in awhile. We are passholders from Ft Lauderdale area and used to go 4-5 times a year for quick weekend trips or week long vaca. Every time we go, we are craving that old time magic and end up leaving disappointed. Between crowds, over pricing, wait times it’s just not as enjoyable. I love Disney and we have so many family memories that I will cherish. Love your videos and hope you and family are doing well. Keep up great work!

I totally understand, that is why we are Universal Studios people now.

Thanks for sharing your feelings about this situation. I’m an ex cast member and an avid Disney fan. I remember the days of no internet or Vloggers saturating the parks. It was much more peaceful and laid back then. We could truly feel the magic with every show and attraction. Most of the Vloggers are annoying to me knowing how things used to be at Walt Disney World. I love your content and appreciate your honesty about the vibe in Orlando and I totally agree. Although I moved back to Michigan from Kissimmee, FL, Orlando will always be our second home. I will always love Disney for many reasons, they just need to pull back the curtain to remember what Walt’s vision and dream was when he started the Florida Project from the beginning. I loved meeting you and Bianca last spring. Keep up the great work!! 😊

I absolutely 100% hear you. Way back in the day when the Disboards were a big thing, I participated in the Trip Reports forum. I enjoyed it. I like to write. I got a pretty big following. People seemed nice. They were excited to read each chapter. I made some really good friends whom I dearly love to this day. I loved having conversations with the folks commenting on my reports. Kind words, good wishes etc. it seemed super positive. Then it wasn’t. Right around my second trip report I found out that there was a whole group of people who were regulars on the Disboards, who had made a whole new forum specifically to hate on my trip reports. They picked apart and mocked every single word. Then I started getting threats. THREATS. From people who do not know me and somehow found my trip report writing to be so enraging that there were threats of violence. One person suggested “spilling my guts on the ground in front of Cinderella castle” would be possible. Seriously? My recounting of trips I take with my family in which there were no discussions of political affiliation, religion or really anything at all other than loving being at disney world with my family. That’s stupid. As much as I enjoyed the interaction with people who were being so kind and supportive, that kind of nasty toxic hatred for no reason other than to be nasty…nope. I’m out. Not worth it. I can only imagine the pressure and stress involved when you are making videos. People are just terrifying. I find the hating just to hate so baffling. Dev I think you are great. I love the positivity you put out into the world. I love that you are calling out the nastiness and competitive hatefulness that exists within the disney vlogging community. It’s so crazy that people who are “disney fans and influencers” would be so incredibly hateful. Seems a bit opposite of the whole Disney affiliation. Either way, it is not worth it. It takes a toll on your mental health in a very big way. I’m glad you are protecting yourself from that kind of negativity. Not worth it. You are awesome. You are loved. You are appreciated! ❤

Disney in general has been so exhausting. The company and the parks. Went to epcot a couple days ago, cosmic rewind an hour wait with VQ, once we get in the actual ride it breaks down at the up hill. Overcrowded, long lines, nah I don't feel the "disney magic" anymore. Universal for me. Disney needs to seriously do a 180 and change things up for the better.

I completely understand! You are getting older and growing in new directions. That is a good thing! Blessings to you! And I love your sincerity and honesty.

Dude, so refreshing. You have to have boundaries and you have to stick to your values and my family have much respect for you for that

Dev when I started watching Disney Vlogs you were the one I watched. You were great then and you still are now. You always kept it real and you need to be true to yourself and that's another reason why I liked your content. Best to you and Bianca always. Peace out.😊

We love your videos dev. you were one of the vloggers that brought our love to the theme parks. Im very sorry you got the crazies after you, and its sad to hear that other vloggers are mean as well. Disney parks can be so increddibly stressful, and when the theme park lifestyle becomes a job, thats when it brings out the worst of people. keep on brother thanks for all of your content! looking forward to the next videos!

Dev, I’m so sorry. That must be so hard for you and your family. You have to do what is best for you. We will always support your choice. Sending love and best wishes 🇬🇧xx

One of the reasons I started following you was because of your authentic and honest approach to vlogging. Really appreciate you taking the time to open up on this and you know what mate, haters gonna hate, but don't let the b@st@rds get you down 🙏

I couldn't agree with you more. My family and I were in Orlando last week and we stayed for the first time at Portofino Bay at Universal. We went to the Universal Parks several days and it was so laid back and everything ran smoothly. We also went to Disney for one day, and it was so stressful and uptight. We were constantly on the dumb app trying to get on Guardians of the Galaxy. Lines were long and people cutting lines and just general craziness. I have been a Disney fan for my whole life, but now I feel the magic is gone. I am really enjoying Universal and what they have to offer. City walk was so cool and we had several really good meals there after we left the parks in the evening. I appreciate you and all that you do to share Disney and Universal with us all. Do what you need to do to have peace in your life for you and your family. You have a beautiful family and I really enjoy the cooking with Bianca vlogs. Thanks to you all!

This is heartbreaking to me that you have gone through all of this not feeling safe and dealing with people while at Disney. And outside the park no one deserves this. I am sending positive vibes you live your life for you and no one else!

Thank you so much for all of your great videos! Sorry to hear you had to go through all of that!👍🏻🫣

PCDEV don’t worry about the drama. Your doing great things and this is not an easy commitment to do all the time. I’m happy I found your channel ❤

Disney does not care anymore. They are about the almighty dollar and nothing else. I used to love Disney. Looked forward to every vacation, but will never go back. Everything is $$$. I always liked your videos❤

Anything online with social media is toxic. I don’t blame you. Frankly, I believe it’s an overall societal issue - starts very young with kids and people do not know how to respect each other. People have lost sight of how to behave in public (and in their personal lives). “It’s nice to be nice!”

I love the variety, honesty, and your positivity in the experiences you share with us. It has helped me so much on making decisions and the tips have made my vacations so much better. Thank you so much for your work!! I love disney world and have for many years but I totally agree with you

love your videos Devin! make the content that makes you happy and if that means taking a break from Disney then do what you gotta do your viewers will be here!

Dev thank you for your videos and honesty. We are from NY so we only visit Disney World once, maybe twice a year. I agree things don't feel the same as a few years ago. However, I do feel because we don't go often, it still keeps that anticipation and excitement fresh for us. There is always something new each time we return. That's why we feel like we are traveling someplace special each time because its not close to home. I feel that if we visited often, it would definitely burn us out too

As someone who loves your Disney content, I totally understand ! Your mental and physical health and safety matter waaaaay more! PS- I love all your content! I wouldn’t mind seeing some other theme park videos besides Disney & universal too. Stay doing you though! We support you! 😊

Much love to you thank you for always keeping it real and being honest with your audience, the crazy thing is since you stopped doing Disney I stopped seeing your videos being promoted in KZfaq which is kind of scary, but I totally feel what you're going through, if you ever want to talk to someone outside the bubble I'm here for you

I am so sorry you are going through that . I have always loved your videos because of your energy so do what you need to do to keep your energy positive you are awesome ❤

So sorry it’s come to this. You’re right. Things aren’t the same at Disney. I’m still a fan of yours. Take care.

We’re from Australia and usually do our US trips at either Disneyland or DisneyWorld and spend multiple days at Disney and only 1 day at Universal. The loss of the magic express and fast passes made a big difference in our recent Disney trips, because of your channel and the Universal coverage our next trip will be staying at Cabana Bay and doing 3 days Universal, we probably won’t even go to Disney (Which used to be the main reason we went to the US) Thanks for the content✌️

I absolutely love the content on your channel! You’re honest about the foods you tried, parks you visit and vacation cruises and destinations! I love how open you and Bianca are! And it sucks that this happens to you. I pray for peace for you and your family 🙏🏽

I enjoy your videos and your commentary. I understand the pressure and the intensity of being online. I appreciate all your efforts.

Insane to think that you get flak for doing your work. Very sad to compare DisneyWorld (and society) today versus 15 years ago. Appreciate all you've done and totally onboard with your decisions!

You keep doing you. I originally subbed to your channel because you are different and nicer than most people who make Orlando content

Looking forward to your upcoming projects! Thank you for your honest coverage of Disney.

Dev, thank you for keeping it SO real... it really is high value!! PLEASE CONTINUE DOING SO...! ...It's my favorite thing about your videos! ...AND I agree with your thoughts wholeheartedly.

Wow Devin I had no idea you were going through all of that. It’s not worth it my friend. I really enjoy your Disney videos but I would never want you to go through that much stress. Life is too short. I definitely respect your decision. Thank you and Bianca for the time and effort you put in to bring joy to your viewers. Your lifestyle videos have been just as interesting as the Disney content. Take as long as you break as you need. You are definitely appreciated and I look forward to whatever you decide to share. Love you and Bianca.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

This is my first comment here. I watch and enjoy your videos. It is sad to hear how bad Disney has gotten and I think you are spot on about no new Disney content. I am sorry you have had to deal with such nonsense and wish you the best in all you do. I will continue to watch your channel for the INTERESTING content and because your honesty is refreshing. Thank you

I agree with you 100%!!! Good for you. And good luck with your new chapter to come.

So sorry to hear this. I've been watching you for a couple of years. Im going to Universal this summer and have been enjoying your vlogs. Love seeing you with your girl too.

Wow...that's unbelievable how you have been treated. People are really losing it lately. 😒 I'm sorry you and Bianca are going through that. I love your videos.❤

My wife and I got to meet you once outside of Guardians and you were awesome. I love your honest takes on Disney and so I will very much miss that. Also your diet and exercise videos are inspiring. Thanks 👍

Our family really appreciates all you do for the youtube community. We are really enjoying the Universal videos as we are new to that part of Orlando parks. Went for the first time last year and going back in June this year. We may need some encouragement to get on Velosicoaster😊

you are BY FAR my favorite 'disney vlogger' so it makes me sad that it's bummed you out so much. We'll still watch, no matter what. I also have leaned more towards universal lately - they are killing it!

Your mental health is very important I absolutely love your content dev no matter what you post I’ve been subscribed to you since 2020 I’m so happy I’ve found your channel sending you so much love your way dev

I gotta say I am a Disney adult and proud of it lol I love the Disney world environment but 100% understand about the people there and the vloggers. I have ran into multiple Disney vloggers and I’m fine with it most of the time. The only time it’s really bugged me is being on rides with some of them and they talk thru the whole dang ride while filming. Same goes for some of the locals ruining the experience for people who have spent so much on their vacation. If I ever see ya in the parks I’m buying you a drink cuz you’re one of the few who seem true

I just found your channel. I really enjoy it. I completely understand where you are coming from. Your life is your own and you have every right to protect yourself and your loved ones. There are a lot great things out there that we'd love to see. I enjoy your detail and your honesty. I found you through cruise vids and I encourage you to keep traveling and sharing your findings with us. Thanks for what you do! I'm a fan of you not just Disney World.

Thank you for your honesty! It really stinks that there seems to be many guests ruining it for you as well. Like you said, just be nice! Everyone is going through something and you never know what kind of day they may be having. Just be kind to others! Love your channel and look forward to your future content!

Hey Dev, I am so sorry that you and your family are having to deal with all of that off-camera crap. I found you through your Disney videos but I subbed for ALL of your videos. I'm looking forward to your future videos. Especially, Epic Universe vids next year.

I love your universal vlogs, cruise videos and your lifestyle channel. Im happy you're able to shift and do what you love. Keep up the great content dev!

I just enjoy hearing your take on what you are experiencing, wherever you are. Do what's best for you and your family; we will watch what you post on your channel.

I absolutely understand your thoughts about WDW and the community in particular; I see a lot of the toxicity on social media primarily, whether Instagram or X. Same for in-person since I live very close to WDW. I appreciate your approach to your KZfaq content, Devin. Keep doing what you are doing, and happy belated 30th!

Dev you’re spot on in every way with your analysis. The Disney message boards are full of toxicity and that spreads to the Parks imo. I was a AP for 12 years and I didn’t renew for the EXACT reason you mentioned. It’s repetitive. I’ve done everything and experience in the Parks and they aren’t evolving as Universal is currently doing. It’s a shame the things you have had to endure to bring us Disney content but know it’s appreciated. My personal opinion is that because Disney isn’t rolling out new parks or experiences very much when they do it’s a frenzy in content creator community and like you said it’s so cutthroat to be the first to post because it’s rare Disney gives the fans something new. You do and have done a fantastic job and I hope you can flip the script on those haters who try and bring you down and no matter what keep doing what you’re doing and do it in such a manner that you kill them kindness. Look forward to watching wherever your travels take you and your sweet family!

You dont owe us anything bro! Thanks for making the vlogs for us.

Love you, Dev. Always enjoy your videos. I completely understand what you’re saying. Good for you! You deserve the best. Enjoy your future endeavors!

Love you Dev! You've always been great to watch - I appreciate your honest point of view and I agree with your stance on Disney. You can't please all of the people all of the time. Keep doing you and those who love you will follow. Best to you.

Oh Dev, this broke my heart. I’m predominantly a Disney Cruiser because I moved away from the Walt Disney World community as I agree it was getting toxic even as a non-blogger/you tuber! I appreciate your honesty. I find the cruise community a lot more inclusive and wonderful! If I were you, I would just do what you love, I think your videos are great whatever you do. I hope you feel better soon and figure it out!

Glad you’re doing what you need to do to not have to complain. We miss Disney, but it’s not the same. We appreciate your honesty! 😊

Thank you for the honesty Dev. I hope you can continue making news/update videos on Disney from time to time. I really do like those. You always say it how it is, even if the change is good or bad. I prefer the sit down explanations rather than the park vlogs tbh. And I never thought about what goes on with Disney vloggers, about rushing to be first and stuff. That doesn’t seem healthy trying to compete like that

I’ve honestly never seen one of your videos But I’m so proud of you!! Do what makes you happy!! Whatever you end up doing, I’ll be pulling for you!

I don't understand. This is your channel. You do with it as you wish. Don't let anyone try and control the content. I've been watching you for years and I enjoy all the videos. Thanks again for all you do.

Amen! you don't need or deserve that toxicity in your life. We enjoy all of your content, no matter the subject!❤

I’ve been watching you off and on for a few years and your new perspective is super mature and refreshing 👍 You go Glenn coco! Yay for healthy boundaries. It’s tough, in real life when you see vloggers, 9/10 times they’re self-centered, entitled, 0 self awareness, and are ruining the vibes for other guests. It’s a weird thing though bc it’s nice to watch Disney vlogs when I’m not in town, and I love getting the “scoop” and reliving the magic🤷‍♀️

Thank you for doing videos all these years. I’m sorry this happened to you. Appreciate all the videos regardless of where they are from.

Keep your head up, you always say it like it is , sorry your going through this.. Disney has disappointed me also .. hopefully it wakes up and go back to how they were in the past . Wish you the best

For me, I think there is to many vloggers doing Disney and ramming it down our throats. Need something different. Keep doing what you’re doing Dev and keep up the good work and keeping it real!

It is nice to be nice!!!! 😊 Thanks so much for keeping it REAL!!! I enjoy watching all of your videos, you and Bianca are both so much fun to follow.

Hey Dev. Haven’t watched Florida related videos much lately from any KZfaqr as I’m pretty much up to date with any changes I need to know for my vacation in May. But I was curious about the recent video about stepping away from Disney. I’m so sorry to hear how awful people of treated you for just doing a job. The world is horrible and it’s disgusting to hear what you have been through. I hope things get better and everything works out for the best. Well done for staying strong and not giving up. Love and blessings to you all. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻.

I agree alot has changed overall after the pandemic. A lot of people are very rude and selfish these days. Everyone spent to much time isolated. I feel like we’re all set up as a huge science experiment

Dev - I love your channel and the way it has evolved. If someone doesn’t, they can unsubscribe. I love the way you cover everything from Universal to your workouts and “cooking with Bianca”. You don’t need to explain your decisions. Love your channel and your honesty ❤

Stay positive my friend. Take all the time you need. Excited to see what future endeavors await your channel. Praying for you and your family. God bless. 🙂🙏🏼

This is so sad, I'm so sorry that something that should be so much fun has become so toxic. Keep doing what makes you and your family happy and we'll keep watching.

I get most of what you said in this video, but I don’t understand how you can be upset with people taking pictures of you in a public place when you have built a career off filming people in a public place. Like you always say treat others how you want to be treated.

I grew up going to Walt Disney World and the nostalgia is what brings me back, but it's losing more and more...

Hang in there Dev and continue doing what you do for us that enjoy your honest perspectives. Thats what drew me to your chsnnel. I can relate having been a Cast Member and guest to alot of what you're saying.

Omg, Dev. I had no idea. I am so sorry to hear of these experiences and truly appreciate your honesty. So sorry to hear of the hassles vloggers have…

You are 100% correct about the Disney World community being toxic. I’m a local (Winter Garden) and it has gotten horrible lately.

Dev you're the only "Disney vlogger" I watch anymore because, frankly, you're the only one I trust. You always make entertaining, intelligent, informative, and honest videos. Whatever you do or cover, I know you'll do it well.

I’ve enjoyed your videos for the past 3 years while I prepared to moved to Florida and since I got here. You have a great voice and personality and the videos and your journey has been fun to watch. You come across as a very genuine and kind person, and after three years of viewing I believe that’s who you truly are. It’s horrible to think of the hate you’ve had to endure and it breaks my heart that people simply can’t be kind to one another. Keep being you and I will view whatever you put out there.

I was sad when I saw this a few months ago as I have enjoyed your Disney content. I could understand your reasons of course and supported you doing what is best for you. Now that I’ve seen some of your new videos I’m very happy you decided to focus on other experiences! It’s great to know that there are other cool things to do other than Disney in Orlando. My husband and I will be enjoying some of those next time

I guess it’s just because I’m such a small channel and I like to stay away from the crowds and people trying to be first, but I feel no negativity being at Disney at all and I’m sorry that is what it has become for you.

Anyone remember Michael K? I think he felt the same way you do. He doesn't do Disney anymore. 😢

Hi PcDev. It’s almost at 2 AM from California I couldn’t sleep…… I watched your vlog about this and I completely understood and I feel you! I am here to make this simple and sweet do whatever you feel is right for you then go for it. Smile please don’t stop vlogs….. I love it so much I’ve been watched your many videos for 4 years since my first watched when it all shutdown in year 2020 that I never forgot. Dev! Keeping going what you doing ! 🤜🏽🤛🏽✌🏽😁

Thank you for all you do! I appreciate your content!!

Keep making videos of integrity buddy! Amazing job!

I got my 1st Annual pass for a theme park last year and I went with Universal

Same issues in the slot community. We always love watching your videos because you are real. Truly appreciate what you do 🙏 Keep it up

Sorry you have had so much trouble. Thank you for sharing and posting content.

I’m so sorry you’ve had to deal with that BS. I do not blame you one bit for doing everything you can to distance yourself from it, and I think it’s a great idea to step away. ❤

Do you! I personally love your home videos. And when I want my Disney fix I go watch other vloggers, there’s plenty out there. It’s okay not to love Disney anymore. I personally love it, it has changed but it still a place that I hold dear to my heart. Just do what makes you happy and people will either follow or not!

I truly enjoy your videos & Disney has become so busy for the price. We moved to Florida so we could be closer to Orlando, but when we do go, we stay & visit Universal. I feel more like a person & not a number. Follow your heart, & it will show you the way. We love your transparency!

Dev! I've seen those haters online and to go out of their way to tear you guys down is horrible. You guys are doing great and ignore those haters. Keep on thriving!!
