Podcaster Bobbi Althoff has dealt with online criticism for years. She became famous for her deadpan interview style on social media. Her podcast featured conversations with celebrities like Drake and Lil Yachty. However, fame brought a wave of harsh comments about her personal life. Now, Althoff says the negativity has started to fade.
In a recent interview, Althoff described the change as refreshing. She explained that she had endured about five years of intense online hate. She said she felt like she had earned a break from it. Althoff also mentioned that she used to read every comment section about herself. Eventually, she learned to scroll past negative opinions instead.
Althoff has been open about how cruel comments once overwhelmed her. She previously shared an emotional video about the hurtful words she received. She admitted that the constant negativity was frustrating and made her feel vulnerable. As a result, she reduced how often she posted online. Therapy also helped her develop a healthier relationship with social media.
Althoff recently joined a Hulu reality show, which brought new attention. Surprisingly, the response to her appearance has been mostly positive. If more public figures spoke openly about online hate, others might reconsider their behavior. Her story reminds us that behind every screen, there is a real person.
