Good morning Beehaw it is currently 5:30 am in the morning here in Australia Nov 9 2024.
It may not be morning where you are but it is always morning somewhere on Earth. Plus this chat is more of a vibe. Have you been doing any hobbies lately or discovered a new tv show? Maybe you worked on something and want to share it or you recently found something you are passionate about?

    That makes sense! I feel like I’m always a bit caught in a catch 22 because I get that sweet, sweet dopamine hit when a video does well lol.

    But yeah for the most part I’m just doing what I want to, and it’s sometimes working out and sometimes not.

    For a while in September, I was on track to hit 2k subscribers in a year, and then suddenly I fell off. The algorithm/viewer are a mysterious beast haha. So I’ll keep going as long as I’m having fun

      Understandable I think I am at 300 though I don’t let a number dictate what content I make. I actually have rules I have set for myself when making videos. Rule 1 do not ask for people to like or subscribe let them decide for themselves. Rule 2 If I got bored in the middle of making a video and decide its not worth it I will just not do the video since I only like working on stuff I enjoy regardless of the algorithm. Rule 3 is no video 10 minutes or over which was to prevent mid-roll ads though I found out recently its actually 8 minutes before they do those. So I have 1 or two videos at around 8 to 9 mins before I knew that. I actually was recording a minecraft video that was speed up of me just playing it. But I deleted it before uploading it because I realized it was kind of boring especially since I don’t speak in my videos so it would just be random minecraft gameplay.
