If you want a proper answer, you'll have to first explain to us what those "same jokes every single time" are first.

Not everyone watches AniTubers nor do they all watch the same ones as everyone else.

chat gpt is right, the memetic part of comedy seems to be laughing at unfunny jokes simply because we sort of get them

touhou fans have been laughing at the same jokes for 20 years so it's nothing new.

Anitube audience likely consists of new people to anime. Pretty sure most older weebs just stop watching anitube even if they continue watching anime.

I like to call this phenomenon lowest common denominator humor. Is it in? Is it funny? Then people will laugh at it. With how easy memes can go viral nowadays and how many places on the internet like to reiterate the same jokes, I would honestly say that it is a human thing and it isn't just exclusive to YouTube or Anime or anything. I frequent r/nbacirclejerk and I constantly see "Luka Doncic is Devin Booker father" or the same Karl Malone gif reposted 40 times on each post.

I can never figure out how to pronounce his username, but what Tchit said is another example of LCD humor as well. I'm honestly certain that if you looked at every fandom in existence, you'd find some sort of overused inside joke that feels as stale as a Speedwagon joke yet people still laugh at it. Hell, Fallout fans have been memeing Mr. House as a tax fraud aficionado who hates the NCR and their taxes for the past few years.

Anitube is garbage. Like legit the worst YouTube community to ever exist. The only big name anime YouTuber I could say was good at his work was DemolitionD prior to his retirement. Everybody else has this ugly veneer of supremacy, that their opinions are more valid than yours just because they're being watched by a sizeable audiences. And, as it turns out, most of those anime YouTubers have remarkably superficial, basic and poorly researched opinions. Like that alone should be the alarm that nobody should be watching these shills.

As for the same jokes, anime communities also have a terrible taste in humor besides having a terrible taste in content creators. Just look at Jojo fans still spamming "haha JoJo reference" still thinking it's 2016 when it's 2016+7 IRL.

I unfortunately cannot just type "based" and leave my answer as that due to the character limit. But what I have to say to your post is that I totally agree with everything except on the part about DemolitionD. I do not believe that there has ever been a good AniTuber and that these influencers are an advertising psyop at worst and jaded elitists at best. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so why should you subject what you think is beautiful to the perspective of an unqualified critic when, alternatively, with critical thought and a hint of fanatical love, people can articulate their own takes rather than regurgitating tuberslop disguised as "their" opinion. I would sooner trust the opinions of my fellow MAL users than an influencer.

Anitube and its audience are all NPC
If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time.

Watch more movies, please.

Perhaps, this is hell.

I must say I've never been one to want outright "recommendations". I kinda liked just to listen to Demo doing his stuff, the research was also mostly correct unlike some (*cough* Gigguk *cough*) and all in all he was decent. Not perfect but decent. Wouldn't agree with his opinions moreoften than not, but eh, it was a decent waste of time. Post Demo though... yeah the scene's been pretty damn bad.

I guess you are talking about Goofy look-a-like Gigguk?

Its because he does reddit humor, and people love reddit humor.

I've come to the conclusion that anime fans aren't funny, so I'm not surprised.

Here we have two now-nothing anoobtubers called Cronosfera and AleEsteves. Both are completely illiterate in anything about anime, and there are people giving them applauses.

Dude, stop. It's not because Gigguk described your favourite with the one-liner "I've got no bitch!" for a couple times that makes it any less true.

Not sure about anitubers, but fandoms generally are like that. 

Fate fandom: laughs at the same "people die when they are killed" or "just because you're correct doesn't mean you're right".
Jojo fandom: laughs at any pose resembling a Jojo pose or "the greatest technology in the world".
Demon Slayer fandom: laughs at any scene with chibi characters in it or Zenitsu chasing Nezuko.

How do you guys keep laughing at the same jokes??

Baka always laugh 3 times..

First because everyone is laughing..
Second time when they actually get the joke.
Third time they laugh for failing to understand it, the 1st time
