Oh I got it
Molly irritates me, I can’t deal with these types who display their individuality by being exactly the same as everyone else! I think she’s very inauthentic.

Maybe, but that seem to didn't help Ruby, Jade, Jack or Eve who all come from varying degrees of upper-middle-class privilege. All of them failed to get in, primarily because they all adopted the same ultimately worthless brand of busywork "productivity" and memorisation-based study, which seems to be a big red flag for Oxbridge interviewers.
So Molly's background probably didn't hurt any, and it's possible she had people more experienced with Oxford's interview and acceptance criteria coaching her with her application (and she actually listened to them, unlike the StudyTubers, who thought they knew better) but she likely got in by virtue of having a more balanced education and being a more naturally intelligent person.

Hadn't she done the same with her videos about recovery, and then started presenting herself as cute bookish stident? Maybe she's planning rebranding again.

Ooh interesting! I wonder why she decided to delete all those videos and rebrand...

She deleted them because she discovered lolcow and what they were posting about her ( pretty mean stuff tbh) and they were even posting about her family on there. But then she came back on Youtube as a Ruby clone this time

Looks like she’s just taking a break from social media… found this from earlier this month: https://www.st-hughs.ox.ac.uk/st-hughs-announces-the-avril-bruten-2022-prizewinner/

Good on her. However I would have thought she would have left a 'I'm fine, just leaving social media, thanks for all your support' kinda post

is it just me or are all her videos gone from her channel?

I quite like her videos, but can't help and notice that she isn't showing her true personality. It's like she saw it worked well for Holly and Ruby and decided to behave and do similar things as them, just to gain followers and views.

she’s quirky and not like the other girls, don’t you forget it!Just watched the first half of Molly's new video from 3 days ago. God, does anyone find the little dances and faces she's pulling when she's eating/drinking just as annoying?

More posing because that doesn't look weird and unnatural at all.
I would say she's had significantly less of a harmful impact than Ruby, particularly as she discusses active recovery on her channel as opposed to brushing everything under the rug like Ruby - but that may be by virtue of having a significantly smaller audience. Who knows how her content will evolve with time.

She did remove all trace of her recovery history from her channel description a few weeks back and changed it to 'just vibin' after deleting all her recovery videos a long way back. I'm not sure what she'd rebrand to at this point though if she's going to pivot from the booktube-adjacent lifestyle vlogger thing she's been doing.
Completely agree - regardless of the way that she's portraying her ED, I don't think it's fair to accuse her of faking. Anorexia and social media are a horrible combination, but that's no reason to uncritically believe accusations thrown around on lolcow.
Although tbf Moya probably wasn't first either!CatCafe234

Molly’s an individual, just like everyone else posing in exactly the same way, and posting exactly the same stuff …

Can you elaborate on how she was different back then? I've only recently found out about her, I've heard that she used to post recovery content before but have never seen it!

It must be something more than Tattle imo. This site is nothing compared to the other one discussing her before.
Without speculating, I hope she's doing ok

As c505 else said, she was very high energy and acted a bit like an excitable child towards food and food challenges. There's a recovery Youtuber called Elzani and she was pretty much a clone of her tbh. I remember on low cow there was a lot of people accusing her of exaggerating/faking her ED because of the way she acted
