but eh it wasn't the best

2016-11-02 16:38:07 UTC  

clickbait?

2016-11-02 16:38:21 UTC  

I think my BM-800 video does well because of the clickbait title

2016-11-02 16:41:02 UTC  

tbh I'm too old and tired to do energetic and meme filled videos, I was put off making youtube videos because it seemed like it was all coked up 18 year olds but then I saw some older tech tubers doing comfy content

2016-11-02 16:41:04 UTC  

made me want to too

2016-11-02 16:41:26 UTC  

they marketed themselves at people as a network that anyone can join. this was back in the day when joining a youtube network meant you'd "made it".

2016-11-02 16:41:33 UTC  

and a lot of the views came from people who just wanted in

2016-11-02 16:42:41 UTC  

they weren't like that when i got involved, but they quickly turned into garbage. quality went way down and it all felt wrong. i left just before they collapsed but i could see it coming

2016-11-02 16:43:00 UTC  

was it video game stuff?

2016-11-02 16:43:09 UTC  

easy guess

2016-11-02 16:43:10 UTC  

yeh

2016-11-02 16:43:19 UTC  

tfw no secondary channel with clickbait video game content for the cash money

2016-11-02 16:44:02 UTC  

I had a loss of motivaiton too and tried to quit but I think I just realised that it's my channel and I can do what I want

2016-11-02 16:44:12 UTC  

hence the old shit videos and all

2016-11-02 16:44:28 UTC  

I felt like I had to keep buying chink shit for people to care

2016-11-02 16:44:46 UTC  

doing what the fuck you want is the best way forward

2016-11-02 16:45:01 UTC  

trying to make it on youtube is a fool's errand, its 99% luck

2016-11-02 16:45:07 UTC  

so you might as well just make the shit you want to make

2016-11-02 16:45:32 UTC  

yeah I actually wanted to make my old shit series and I think it shows

2016-11-02 16:45:36 UTC  

I really cared about doing it

2016-11-02 16:45:42 UTC  

rather than pumping out more chink shit memes

2016-11-02 16:45:57 UTC  

it's definitely the best way

2016-11-02 16:46:02 UTC  

if you care then the people care

2016-11-02 16:46:23 UTC  

for a while i committed myself to a news series

2016-11-02 16:46:32 UTC  

and some weeks it was good because the stories were interesting

2016-11-02 16:46:44 UTC  

other weeks it was fucking boring and hell and i didn't want to be doing it, and it was always obvious

2016-11-02 16:46:49 UTC  

did get the $$ tho

2016-11-02 16:47:03 UTC  

>made not a single $ from this yet

2016-11-02 16:47:06 UTC  

shoo shoo, Scank stinky chinky

2016-11-02 16:47:15 UTC  

I wonder if I'd change my stuff if $ rolled in

2016-11-02 16:48:02 UTC  

if you actually want to make dollar then you need some kind of sponsorship

2016-11-02 16:48:09 UTC  

you know how linus tech tips does? thats were the money is

2016-11-02 16:48:28 UTC  

you won't make more than pennies off adsense

2016-11-02 16:48:57 UTC  

obviously I'd love to just sit around and make videos all day, but yeah, I'd need some Linus tier production values

2016-11-02 16:49:49 UTC  

beats being a wageslave if you've got the gig

2016-11-02 16:50:02 UTC  

can't stand youtubers like OMG I HAVE ANXIETY AND THIS JOB IS SO HARD I WORK ALL DAY

2016-11-02 16:50:13 UTC  

it always happens when they get rich

2016-11-02 16:50:50 UTC

2016-11-02 16:50:52 UTC

2016-11-02 16:51:40 UTC
