So glad to see you back, Rob! Your videos really inspired me as a newbie a couple years back and ignited that same passion which you spoke of. Your episodes on iPad-to-RaspberryPi integration was a game changer for me and was the foundation for everything I’ve learned and done since. Although I’m still learning, I now teach Linux and cloud computing concepts to my teammates where I work, and as a volunteer instructor at a non-profit women’s academy.. Ignore all the haters and please know your prior work influenced many lives for the better. Warmest regards and Welcome Back! 🙋🏻♀️
That's a great story to hear. I'm attempting Linux as my daily driver again at the moment so I'll be sharing that journey on the channel along with more Pi projects.
@@tech_craft I just discovered your channel and definitely loving the content you produce. It would be great more content about if you are still using pi with ipad as well as projects would be great. You should consider patreon.
So glad! you have awesome content! Interested in the Framework laptop for sure. loved the series on the iPad/Raspberry Pi collab and between you and Jeff Geerling, spent countless hours on these Pi projects.
Glad to see you back and happy that life is treating you well! I only just realised you were back the other day when you started popping up in my recommendations again! Very much looking forward to your videos!
So glad you’re back! I’ve been visiting your channel every so often to see if there are new videos, even though I have the notifications set up, I thought Google might skip it. Welcome back Rob! Thank you! 🙏🏼
Lovely to see you back. Absolutely agree with your ethos - I personally would love to see fewer videos with quality content rather than lots of poor reviews that add nothing! (No need to respond to this message - concentrate on your content and hope you feel the support!)
I second the motion. I was wondering what had happened to your channel. I’m glad you’re back and I’m ready for all the great tech content that you provide. Thx Rob
Welcome back, I loved your previous videos and every so often noticed your channel in my subscribed list and hoped you were ok. Glad to hear you are and looking forward to more videos.
G’day Rob, so happy to see new content. I joined because of the whole Mouse on iPad thing and have missed you since the support I iOS. I stopped travelling with my MacBook because of your videos and love working from my iPad back to my MacBook. I’ve become a big user of Screens but would love more content about Remote Desktop from iPad to MacBook in the future. Happy to see you’re back and looking forward to the passion. Also a cyclist so anything you want to throw in there would be appreciated too. I’m a hammerhead user so any side loading of apps on there could also be helpful. Good luck and all the best.
Glad to see you back and healthy. More tutorials would be perfect. iPad tips would be nice too. I don’t mind product reviews because I respect your independence and experience. Look after yourself. Best regards Martin
So good to see you back! Honestly was worried with the timing of your last video and the state of world at the time. I am looking forward to your new content and wishing you the best.
It's fantastic to see you're back man. I especially love the new direction you're going to go. I loved many of your tutorials you've made in the past, particularly with the raspberry pi, and I look forward to more in the future :).
Great to see you back Rob. I was just getting into your videos just before your break. The tutorials were helpful and even when it wasn’t something I was planning on implementing, I still found the content interesting. Excited about the craft/tutorial approach. I think we need more of this in the community and I’m looking forward to seeing where this goes next.
I feel you on this; seems like every tech channel that I used to love before is doing some form of paid advertising, and I get that they have to make money, but it really grinds my gears to the point that I’ve stop watching many of them,
Great to see you back! Personally and I think the majority of people understand you were going through some issues. Glad you over come them. I wanted to request if you can do another Hoobs setup video, as the software has changed since the first one and it’s bit harder to for me to get up and running
Yes!!! Welcome back! Your videos were what eased me into wanting to program on iPad. I’m glad you’re back to do this all, can’t wait to see what you’ve got coming!
Welcome back!!! My favorite channel, you were the first channel I clicked the notification bell for. Always wanted to know when you posted because the videos were great.
Truly wonderful to see you back here Rob, It really made my day! As a fellow engineer, I absolutely cannot wait to be further inspired by your work, what things you’re passionate about, and the helpful ways in which you teach and inspire others. Most of all, I’m so glad to see you made it through the rough ride and have come back out on top. Keep safe!
Welcome back mr. Rob. My raspberry Pi was waiting for your return to make further progress. :) Got myself an iPadPro and can’t wait to start experimenting again. Keep on the good work!
Yes! So great to see you back on, and awesome that you got deep and shared your experiences that I’m pretty sure other RUclipsrs, including me, can relate to. I’ve recorded nine videos this year, and wow you can only anticipate so much in terms of workload and glitches and unforeseen time sucks and so on. Yep, I’m sure that viewers who accuse you of not being biased can be potentially detrimental to one’s desire to continue their channel, but I think you just ultimately have to push on and do the best you can, despite the naysayers who will always be there. At the end of the day, it’s your channel and as long as you believe in a product, or not (especially if it’s bad), then doing you seems to be the most authentic. I’m really glad you’re back, and look forward to seeing more of your content. All the best for this 2022, and stay safe.
Just came across your channel and might I add extremely informative! I especially enjoy your series on ‘Apple Shortcuts’ which is how I ended up here! I understand since then a few updates have came to IOS - Would it be possible to another series in the near future on both the updated Shortcuts as well as Automations ?? That would be awesome!
Good to have you back dude. I really appreciate your honest comments around the reasons for leaving the channel for a while (OMG, you killed the channel, you b4stard!) as well as commercialism/isation and the potential fallout from that for your channel and how it makes you feel personally. It’s good to strike a balance between doing what really makes you tick and fulfilling the commercial aspect (if any). I think yours is a good approach to take. I missed both your content and your approach as I think you have a pretty unique take. I just watched your vid on the widget creation with Scriptable - something I’m going to try for myself. Keep up the good work. 👍
So, happy you're back. And I'm very happy to hear your thoughts about to have or not have a RUclips channel. I'm thinking of starting my own channel (completely non-tech related ha ha ha) and your words have given me something to think about. But, back to your channel, I love my iPad and hope some day to say goodbye to my laptop and use my iPad full time someday - so I'm looking forward to more videos on that if you're still doing that. Thank you again and looking forward to seeing you here. :)
Having a channel is a great creative outlet, but it's definitely a double-edged sword. I think if you can stay true to the content you're passionate about you'll have no problems.
I am so glad you’re back. I love your working on the ipad videos, so many things changes since that, I hope to see more content like this in the future. Keep up the good work👍.
Hello Rob, Life/family,friends are always more important then anything else, I think. Doesn't mean to live life at the expense of others. 😉 I'm happy you're fine and healthy, because your videos were helpful. Never unsubscribed, because the hope was always there ,you'll return. 😃
It’s really great to see you back. It seems like you must have left just around the time I found your channel, because the iPad / Raspberrypi videos you produced were so useful for me, and then everything just disappeared. Anyway, looking forward to what you have in store. Thanks for coming back!
I have only just noticed you are back, and your content is perfectly suited to my interests and tech requirements. Keep up the iPad content, as someone who works using ‘iPad only’, it’s invaluable. Thank you
Wow, what a coincidence. Just randomly looked back at your channel (stopped doing that like year after last video was added) and I see it´s back online. It must have been some kind of intuition. Really liked your "craft" videos. But not gonna lie, also your reviews. Because it´s different when some tool is reviewed by somebody who uses it in his/her work and projects. And review made by "tech youtuber" who uses always same testing script over and over again. It´s completely different insight.
So happy you are back Rob, Thanks for your explanations but I feel it really wasn't needed, we all have our lives, our problems etc I will catch up on what I have missed since your return. so again welcome back.
Great to see you back. I really enjoyed the iOS shortcuts automation tutorials you have done. There are very few of them on the internet at the moment. This channel is really helpful. Please keep on doing what you're doing 👍🏽
Great to see you back, Rob! As a fairly new dev myself, and someone very intrigued by the capabilities of the iPad and the Raspberry Pi, I have really enjoyed watching your vids and learning a lot about it all!
Great to have you back! Time out is always a worthwhile exercise to help understand your personal priorities and ambitions. I know you'll make the channel a success with your newfound vigour.
Welcome Back, dude!!! You have no idea how much I miss the channel and how much I learned from the iPad + Raspberry Pi + Shortcut series... Looking forward to your new "craft"!
Fantastic news! I got in to your channel a few months ago as I’m getting in to coding and your videos on coding with iPad really interested me. I’m the wrong side of 50 and on a steep learning curve but your channel really did resonate with me and I’m already looking forward to seeing your new content. Welcome back mate.
So glad you're back, dude! I'd checked in a few times over the year to see if I'd missed anything and was worried something terrible had happened. Glad you're on the up and up and looking forward to some new videos.
Hey Rob welcome back! Don't feel like you owe anyone anything, but it's nice to hear your thoughts and the fact that everything is going better! Congrats on the new job (and dog!). I've thought about your channel a few times over this hiatus period, and very happy to see you're back!

Jeff's content is so good. I think he's at least partly responsible for the global Pi shortage 😂
One of my favourite RUclips channels is back! Whoohooo!
Glad to see you back and happy that life is treating you well! I only just realised you were back the other day when you started popping up in my recommendations again! Very much looking forward to your videos!
So glad you are back! This really made my day. So many questions answered and hope to see more of the great tutorials and crafting!

Welcome back, really enjoying your content. Your honesty is a breath of fresh air here on RUclips.
Welcome back, it’s great having you back .. remember that the knowledge has no power if it is not shared … thank you for that !!!
Welcome back. I look forward to the new content and watching the transformation.
Happy you’re back. One of my fav channels on yt. I can’t count how many times I came back to your channel to check if there was any new video.
Welcome back! No need to apologise at all, appreciate the work you put into everything!
Glad to see you are back Rob. I loved the stuff you did before stopping so happy to see you are back ;)
Welcome back, I loved your previous videos and every so often noticed your channel in my subscribed list and hoped you were ok. Glad to hear you are and looking forward to more videos.

I have been thinking about doing a video on my bike tech setup, and also something on data science with the iPad to analyse fitness data.
Glad to see you back and healthy. More tutorials would be perfect. iPad tips would be nice too. I don’t mind product reviews because I respect your independence and experience. Look after yourself. Best regards Martin
Welcome back!
Welcome back Rob! Nice to hear you talk about the human part of a yt creator. Looking forward to seeing your videos!
So good to see you back! Honestly was worried with the timing of your last video and the state of world at the time. I am looking forward to your new content and wishing you the best.
Glad to see you are back. Can’t wait for new content. I got a lot from the older videos.
I had a 4yr paus, basically whitout disturbing issues. If it aint fun, or something else is more important, then let go!
Welcome back!👍
It's fantastic to see you're back man. I especially love the new direction you're going to go. I loved many of your tutorials you've made in the past, particularly with the raspberry pi, and I look forward to more in the future :).
Welcome back! My dad and I really enjoy your videos!
Welcome back!!! Your videos are some of the best. Try not to focus on the negative comments and rather on the positive and constructive comments.
Welcome back Rob. I am delighted to once again be able to learn more of your tech craft. I’ve missed it!
So happy you’re back and glad to know you do only what you love and enjoy 😊 Looking forward to more of your contents, feel inspired and enjoy 😊
I’m really happy to see you back .. one of the most unique channel and special creator
Welcome back, and congrats on the dog!
Great to see you back Rob. I was just getting into your videos just before your break. The tutorials were helpful and even when it wasn’t something I was planning on implementing, I still found the content interesting. Excited about the craft/tutorial approach. I think we need more of this in the community and I’m looking forward to seeing where this goes next.
Mate, I was wishing for your comeback for a long time
Thanks for being back
oh man i really miss your videos, welcome back 😍 i was happy to get notifications from your channel
Excellent news. Your videos were immensely helpful to me in the past. Looking forward to more videos.
I feel you on this; seems like every tech channel that I used to love before is doing some form of paid advertising, and I get that they have to make money, but it really grinds my gears to the point that I’ve stop watching many of them,
I’m glad you are back. I always enjoy your videos. Don’t over do yourself. Always put your family first. Take care
Welcome back, bro.
Cheers from New Zealand
Welcome back! Hope to see your content again!
Great to see you back! Personally and I think the majority of people understand you were going through some issues. Glad you over come them.
I wanted to request if you can do another Hoobs setup video, as the software has changed since the first one and it’s bit harder to for me to get up and running
Thanks for your kind words. I need to revisit my own Hoobs setup so very happy to make a video of that when I do it.
Yes!!! Welcome back! Your videos were what eased me into wanting to program on iPad. I’m glad you’re back to do this all, can’t wait to see what you’ve got coming!
Welcome back!!! My favorite channel, you were the first channel I clicked the notification bell for. Always wanted to know when you posted because the videos were great.
That's very nice to hear. I hope the new content is worthy of such praise!

Good for you for having the courage to stop and the courage to come back.
Good to hear from you.
Even better you're doing Engineering that gets you motivated and regaining the fun of things.
I was delighted to see that you have returned! Glad that you are well. Looking forward to your new content!
Good to see you back mate.

Good for you, I remember when you started out the first, time you are very talented. You can have a lot of success
Thanks for your kind words
Great to see you are well and back!
Welcome back! Wow, you did Spring!? I never knew. Bravo.
Yes, I was one of the early Spring team members and wrote one of the first books on the topic. Feels like a different life now!
I missed you. Hope you have been ok
Same! Your comments are always welcome. I am well, hope you are too.
Hello Rob, Life/family,friends are always more important then anything else, I think. Doesn't mean to live life at the expense of others. 😉 I'm happy you're fine and healthy, because your videos were helpful. Never unsubscribed, because the hope was always there ,you'll return. 😃
Yaaaaaaay youre back! 🥳🥳
Nice. Good to have you back
So glad you are back
Welcome back.
dude stop talking. we thought covid got you. so happy to see you ok
Haha. Despite travelling around a bit, I've managed to dodge Covid so far thanfully.
Welcome back, sir! Looking forward to learning some craft from this channel.
Glad you are back!
Welcome back.
I enjoyed your iPad Pro and Raspberry Pi series - hoping to see more of these and perhaps HOOBS? But do what you enjoy.
I have a long list of RPi projects of my own that I plan to cover, including revisiting my Hoobs setup that I've neglected the last few months.
It’s really great to see you back. It seems like you must have left just around the time I found your channel, because the iPad / Raspberrypi videos you produced were so useful for me, and then everything just disappeared.
Anyway, looking forward to what you have in store. Thanks for coming back!

You brought me to my newest iPad and my enjoyment of using of the Raspberry Pi. Hope to learn more from you. Welcome back.
So happy you are back Rob, Thanks for your explanations but I feel it really wasn't needed, we all have our lives, our problems etc I will catch up on what I have missed since your return. so again welcome back.
Great to see you back. I really enjoyed the iOS shortcuts automation tutorials you have done. There are very few of them on the internet at the moment. This channel is really helpful. Please keep on doing what you're doing 👍🏽
Time flies so fast, maybe I just grew old, but I can't even notice if RUclipsr doesn't post for a year
Welcome back! Loved watching your old videos and I am looking forward to the new ones.
Great to see you back, Rob! As a fairly new dev myself, and someone very intrigued by the capabilities of the iPad and the Raspberry Pi, I have really enjoyed watching your vids and learning a lot about it all!
Found you because of your raspberry pi videos. Hope you keep posting!
Long time no see
I was just wondering what had happened to you only a few days ago. Nice to see you show back up in my notifications!
I am so glad that you're back. You're videos inspired me many times and I hope there will be more for me to learn and to reproduce. Thank you so much.
Great to have you back! Time out is always a worthwhile exercise to help understand your personal priorities and ambitions. I know you'll make the channel a success with your newfound vigour.
glad that you are back, I sub again :)
Great that Tech Craft is back :)
Welcome back! Looking forward to more of your videos. Your dog looks amazing 😀.
He’s a little champion
Hey Rob, could you do an update including raspberry pi and spring framework? Java dev here trying to do spring dev from the ipad
I have a full update on iPad Coding coming and I will address the issues of Java development.
Welcome back Rob!!!!
Good to see you back!
Welcome Back, dude!!! You have no idea how much I miss the channel and how much I learned from the iPad + Raspberry Pi + Shortcut series... Looking forward to your new "craft"!
Where were you? I am glad you’re back. Keep posting, learning and enjoying your videos.
Fantastic news! I got in to your channel a few months ago as I’m getting in to coding and your videos on coding with iPad really interested me. I’m the wrong side of 50 and on a steep learning curve but your channel really did resonate with me and I’m already looking forward to seeing your new content. Welcome back mate.
Rob I’m so glad you’re back. You convinced me to start using an iPad for most things, and then you disappeared. Looking forward to more content.
So happy to see you again!!! Look forward to watching you and learning from you!!!
Glad to see you back. Never mind the dickheads, just keep on inspiring others and ignore the morons
😂😂
So glad you're back, dude! I'd checked in a few times over the year to see if I'd missed anything and was worried something terrible had happened. Glad you're on the up and up and looking forward to some new videos.
Thanks! I'm glad to be back.
