why starting a youtube is a brilliant idea (even if no one watches)

  • I stumbled across a young lady on here named Poe who made a video on why she keeps making videos even though she doesn't get views. She made some good points. My video is why youtube is great from a different perspective and how it has helped me the past few years. Hopefully it helps someone else. After all, that is why we are here...to love and help one another.

    I think people also forget that RUclips was intended to be a creative outlet. There was no monetary incentive back in the day. It was just about being creative, informative, and connecting with like-minded people.

      Especially in light of YT being found out to train their AI on YT videos. And this will come off as hating on her success, but that is not it at all.
      It would be irresponsible on YT's part to take a channel that was getting great organic growth over the years, and flooding it with viewers and subscribers. And they may not watch their videos that aren't related to their viral video.
      And the algorithm demotes channels with inactive subscribers. Having a viral video about YT has messed up so many growing channels.
      There's a reason why the most successful channels almost never make a video about YT. It's a short term boost for YT, but it harms years of hard work and progress.

Even the RUclipsrs who post once a month or once every 3-6 months may be able to keep that up for a couple years, but eventually it'll fall down. You see lots of RUclipsrs who were super popular (1M+ followers/subscribers back when that amount was huge and meant something) from 2010-2019 are now nobodies and their videos will get a small fraction of views like they used to get.

    I’ve been on RUclips for 16 years too. It was never about money for me, it still isn’t. I love to create. I studied digital arts/photography/videography. When I used to post, hardly anyone watched, so I stopped sharing. I’ve even removed some of my videos because some had 10 or 20 views. I just keep my videos to myself and my sanity, save myself the time and energy it takes to edit, render, and upload. I have tons of clips on iCloud of all the places I’ve traveled, the fine resorts, restaurants, and spa days, times at the opera, the ballet, Miami Open, concerts. I just scroll through the cloud when I want to relive those moments.

    As a single black woman, I won't be a direct ancestor to anyone in this life. After my little nieces and nephews and their future children are gone. No one will remember me if I don't leave a trail of memoirs and creative works behind.

Needless to say, I can relate to all that you've said. I've just recently started three channels, ((neglecting two other that I started over the last two years so now a total of five😅)) one of which is a daily diary and...the topic for this morning is Consistency. This could be a long message, anyway don't look back and dwell on the "What Ifs" too much. As an older person, I tend to do that sometimes. I too am documenting my life on RUclips. I hope to stay consistent this time around with these channels. Your words are encouraging a lot of people. Be encouraged too and take care. Gonna have my tea and record another video diary. Blessings.
