Controversies[]
Beef with his editor[]
Kacper Rietz (formerly Kacper Montażysta back in the time) in 2018 uploaded a video called "GIMPER - INNA PERSPEKTYWA" on his channel, where he exposes Gimper's "bad" side. Gimper gave a response video titled "Zawiodłem się" where he responds back to the allegations. Finally, Kacper Montażysta responded with "GIMPER WAS OSZUKAŁ". Gimper won the situation and Kacper Montażysta removed the drama videos.
Ator court case[]
In 2015 Krzysztof "Ator" Woźniak sued Gimper[2] for slander and damaging reputation. the court case ended in 2023 with Gimper's victory.
Gimper’s age-rating controversy[]
Until February 2017, Gimper’s YouTube videos were primarily aimed at viewers over the age of sixteen. His early content often featured vulgar language and a confrontational tone, leading some viewers to perceive him as aggressive or mocking toward others. The lack of clear age restrictions on his videos allowed them to reach younger audiences, which sparked public criticism.
Technology journalist Grzegorz Marczak from Antyweb described Gimper as “the leading pathology of Polish YouTube,” criticizing his influence on minors.
In 2017, Gimper changed his approach—he removed vulgarities, introduced an explicit 16+ age rating, and improved the production and educational value of his shows. Marczak later acknowledged this transformation, praising Gimper’s professional growth.
