    There are many self taught programmers here in yt, some may be immensely gifted and others are average. I wonder why many of them put their stuff on youtube and promoting themselves with the same concept of content. Does that mean after getting to learn all the fundamentals of coding and getting an experience will lead me to creating another clichè youtube content??? I know job market must’ve been tough but misleading your audiences to at least believe that coding is possible while not talking about job (w/c is the primary reason why they chose to learn coding). Coding is popular since it can bring everyone an immense capability to earn more. Which is why people are finding ways on yt Code = earning more. And not, coding = youtube content.

    • @jooweee

      tbh, creating youtube videos is very time-consuming. most software engineers don't do it because it's not worth doing a second job. a lot of the times, I wonder if it's worth continuing. a lot of them create the same kind of content because that's what gets views... the same goes for finance youtubers, self improvement, etc when I chose to start creating youtube videos, I chose to make videos that I want to make that can also help people that were in a similar situation I was in. at the end of the day, everyone has different motives. it's not as black and white as it may seem
