Yeah, maybe I could think of something, but I overthink things too much and would never actually decide on what to do. And even then, it takes a lot of time to build up a community of followers/subscribers/viewers unless you get super lucky and have a video that goes viral.


Yeah, youtube is very finicky. I uploaded this video (
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BB37Dxb28Ok" data-time="
) once because I wanted to be able to quote it and despite being a moment that when I watched the episode felt like it would be something that people would want as a reaction video, but no one ever seemed to want it. It's not even the case that there's a version of it that's more popular; it's the only video on Youtube of it from a casual search. On the other hand there are random videos of a high school kid saying "Damn bro", recorded on an iPhone, with thousands of times more views.

It's whatever, because I don't set out to make viral content, but just upload videos that my friend want made that are short edits, or things that I had worked on for 72 hour film festivals and stuff, but I imagine it would pretty soul crushing to be trying hard to be a content creator and have to deal with that.
