Initially, the channel consisted of a series of videos about computer games and was hosted by various people. Over time, series of topics such as “IMG!” Became more and more popular and Michael Stevens became the sole moderator on the channel, who developed under him primarily in the areas of information and online news. In particular, the education-oriented videos from the “DOT” series have found increasing popularity and have been produced exclusively since September 9, 2012. According to a statement from the 18th episode of “LÜT”, the name VSauce was created with the “Fake Website Generator” (www.fakenamegenerator.com).
