Initially, the channel uploaded "cringe" compilations of topics ranging from Weeaboos to Buzzfeed. 
Over time, it slowly turned towards commentary videos, uploading his first commentary video on November 9, 2017, titled "Why Lele Pons is not funny". Diesel patches have criticized many YouTubers ranging from h3h3Productions for overusing his YouTube power to Morgz, showing his dislike for the channel's exaggerated fake videos, sexualization of underage female cast members, and ridiculous thumbnails. 
Most notably, he has made multiple videos criticizing YouTubers such as Lele Pons and Lilly Singh for their lack of humor in their videos. 
Some have deemed diesel patches’ style of criticism as insulting and promoting hate towards the subject of the videos. As a response, he has stated that people should not look at his videos like that. The videos criticizing others are him giving his opinion, not promoting hate. However, he also understood that viewers may enjoy the subject he was discussing.
After announcing that his channel had been demonetized due to containing compilation videos, he stated they would be deleted. They were deleted on January 18, 2019. After announcing his channel’s demonization, diesel patches started uploading videos to his newly created second channel, weasel batches. The channel focuses on him giving his thoughts and opinions on various movies and television shows, primarily comic book movies. On July 2, 2019, he announced that diesel patches had been remonetized. 
On February 20, 2020, he announced that his Discord server had been deleted. As of gaining 1 million subscribers on February 22, 2021, he has decided to leave his main channel to focus on his second channel.
