    yeah I don't find myself a typical "youtuber" either, I make videos when I feel like it, I don't monotize my channel. Yet people are like.... expecting me to upload? "well you haven't made anything in ____ years!!" they say. It's like.... yeah? I haven't? because My life has gotten wonderfuly complex?

      "no snowflake feels responsible for the avalanche" It's the AMOUNT of comments. Im working on exciting new endevors things outside of youtube. Making more youtube animations isn't a challenge anymore like it used to be. I want to learn and grow, do things i haven't seen before. Things I tried to share, and every time, eyes, [the audiences] glaze over and I get comments, and people telling it to my face. "yeah, but when are you going to stop all that an make more youtube videos?"

    I’ve been following you for years now and I’ve always loved the animations that u uploaded. Would love to see more independent animations/ projects. U probably talked about it but you should consider opening up a Patreon. Love you dude.

    RUclips is turning into total garbage. The ratio of real comments/questions to "skibidi beepboop bro fell off pixxx in bio" bot comments is getting smaller every day. I only get about $40 a month from everything I've uploaded on RUclips, and since I'm working on a very long-form animation, the only way I can make more than that is if I burn myself out by making "algorithm-friendly" shorts or re-uploads of old stuff on a regular basis. I keep my Patreon members updated every week, and anyone that wants to check up on me can see me streaming my work on Twitch almost every day. RUclips serves as little more than a public archive of my official work at this point, and I don't think that's going to change anytime soon.

      You might want to be careful; a lot of studios are turning towards AI and laying off multiple employees. That, and underpaying them for their services. If you’re interested, there’s also the indie animation route that you could take in your pursuit of animation (career-wise) albeit it has some obstacles (financial, funding, time-consumption, possible team coordination, etc.) Sorry about this. I just thought I’d warn you about some things occurring surrounding the animation industry that I’ve heard from people who covered issues on the industry.
      Aside from this, I wish you luck in your efforts, and I hope you have a good day. Sorry again about the warning; I just thought I’d let you know what I’ve learned and heard.

    Thank you for telling us about your personal struggles with animating and being a RUclipsr. The grind does get tough at times, especially with the RUclips algorithm and animating in general. But about that part of making higher quality videos…you already do that. You give us efficient and insightful insights on animating, and how people approach animation in general, much like how your previous video covered why people quit and scrap their passion projects from a matured perspective. And I think that it’s also good that you’re taking a step back on uploads and you’re working at your own pace. I find this personally impressively helpful, for both you and your audience. That way, you can relax yourself and not stress about uploads. If you need, take some extra time of rest and relaxation before you decide to animate or upload; or just do things at your own pace like how you stated before. Aside from this, I hope you have a great day, and congratulations on passing 300,100 subscribers! I hope you have a good day!

    Toniko, I just want to say that your videos have actually given me hope when it comes to creative projects as a whole, whether it's a hobby, passion, or even a commercial project. Your commentary videos are already doing enough for the indie animation community on this platform even if being a youtuber isn't really for you. The fear of being forgotten is understandable to some extent, but considering how I stumbled upon your channel in a time where I doubted myself, along with a lot of other people, I don't see that happening any time soon. So for that, I am grateful.
    Also, congrats for reaching this milestone! ^^

    Really appreciated this one!! I love the well rounded perspective that you share in the process and journey. Personally, while I get so much from your videos and always learn something new, I do endorse you having the opportunity to focus less on the channel in favor of your personal work thriving! It's so important to remember things can come in waves, and if we have a few months where we're only getting 1 or 2 videos, but you're more fulfilled in creating, THAT is what your community will want most!

    I think what’s special about your videos is your point of view - like how you often talked about topics which might not discussed that often around creators but very much exist. I find your videos are really helpful for artist self-development.
    Also, seeing great artist like you sharing your process & journey in art is really redeeming cause it makes me realize that everyone is having their own battle, thus what I’m experiencing is normal not because of my incapability. :”)

    It's quite surprising just how much of your head space, energy and time a RUclips channel can take up, irrespective of its size. I've found it challenging to balance my own channel with the comic(s) but I've realised that the more I take the time to work on personal stuff, the more inspired I am to make videos about what I'm working on, which are usually the quickest/easiest to make because of that creative fulfilment.
    You've got to make the best choice for you at the end of the day. A community is a community because they look out for each other and yours looks out for you!

    It wasn't until I discovered that it was consuming too much of my time and that I expressed myself really poorly for what I really was that I decided to take a safe distance from that habit to focus more on myself and my proyects.
    how incerdible healthy that decision was still scares me

    once your audience binges everything you have ever produced, they'll still ask for more. To the audience, the hours you spend making a video is literally mere minutes to their consumption. So by definition, unless you have a team to help you produce videos (like Mr. Beast, you will eventually not satisfy your audience. And in the Art space, the audience does not allow the creator to offload tasks. Art channels have to be 'intimate' 'personal'.
