While more and more kids aspire to become famous on the Internet, it's probably relevant to take a look at why more and more youtubers are choosing to leave their channels behind and quit UA-cam. It's tempting to watch the big players and fantasize about how great it must be to be in their shoes, or to adopt the hustle mentality and quickly work your way into burnout, but sometimes it's good to listen to the stories of those who've been there and walked away, to understand that life is about a whole lot more than "the grind".

strangely this is the only comment i see
Hello
No
Isnt it ironic that he ended making a video about people leaving youtube only for him to actually leave youtube this being his last video?
Edit: This aged very badly
Maybe it was on purpose
I dunno :/
He hasn’t said anything or maybe he has because I don’t follow him on any social media platforms (if he has fill me in because I’m curious)
yeah lol
animation takes a long time so maybe thats why theres been silence
its fun untill you're depending on it, then the pressure is really high
@you know this nobody cares
Did this happened to James from Cinemassacre the Angry Video Game Nerd?
Bro, the pressure be high as i get when i smoke the shit HowToBasic is on.

@@TheCrystalFrogs this is sad lol
I remember getting the notification for this video, and panicking as I misread it as an announcement of why he is quitting youtube, but having a breath of relief when I realised it wasn't. coming back now, I think my initial thoughts were correct especially now that all his socials, instagram and twitter, are wiped blank. wherever you are andrei, I wish you the absolute best. thank you for making me form my own opinions about issues, realise my biases and look at things from a different perspective. I genuinely learnt things from you and your videos, and would regularly rewatch them. you built a great channel and community and I hope to see you if not soon, eventually but if that doesn't happen, then so be it. I'm sure you're off to new adventures, and doing incredibly well at them. you had a great run, prietenul meu.
Hopefully he is happy, wherever he is
@@mr.regular589 maybe he’s hangin out with the “top G” in Romania
@@goatpower321 idk what that means, but I feel like you're saying something about him being dead ;-;
@@mr.regular589 no? Never heard of Andrew tate?
@@CabritinhaJP I've heard of him. But never learned anything about him. Only know that he is very controversial...
From years of seeing one dissapointed creator after another, it shows that it favours big companies over small guys just trying to create content that they like. I find it a miracle that there are still individuals out there making good content.
HOBBYIST FOR THE WIN LET'S GOOOOO!!!
I saw a lot of good UA-camrs but they barely had any subs or just don't get that many views
@@horse7263 yeah there's A LOT of people like that
READ MY NAME!!!
!!!!!!!
@@horse7263 honestly yeah, i see a lot of people who make great stick figure animations and they inspired me to make my own animation channel but those people only get like 1k views at most and it pisses me off
I feel like kids are not expressed to the dangers of wanting to be a influencer. They are shown all the good but not the bad of the mental strain being a content creator is with all the other downsides to it. I personally have a fear of fame which I’m not saying is good but kids needs to have a back up plan. UA-camr shouldn’t be the first option it should be a side goal that you work on while you work on your main course. I think we should show kids a reality of what happens when you work like a UA-camr. Videos that are shown to kids explaining the issues and benefits
(Edit: I was making this comment while watching the video and I just realized he made the same message as me by the end lol)
i spent my quarantine time in 2020 watching and discovering new youtubers mainly commentary like andrei and cr1tikal
learned alot of things like how youtube in a lot of ways isnt realiavle as a job, hearing this youruber then this youtuber get striked/punished for no reason and the only reason youtube responds is that theres a trending # and thousands of people call out UA-cam
I don't think kids should be allowed to become influencers. This fame thing messes up with your head even if you are an adult. But if you GROW UP with everyone knowing your business and giving you attention then that becomes your personality and it changes the way you look at the world. My little cousin became a UA-cam star in our country when he was 19. He goes to therapy now. 2 of his fellow creators are also in therapy and the rest of the group fell off and they don't have any friends outside of their circle.
Now i know why minecraft youtubers are screaming like kids
As a kid like everyone i wanted to be a yt but the forst REAL toughs of it came when i was 14 and made me realize the more deep and deep prospective of being an influencer and that let me in a more responsable way of thinking
I've heard a news that a kid in my town commited suicide because she was an influencer but was criticized,that's really sad and heart breaking
no way andrei made a video about creators quiting youtube, and quits youtube💀💀💀
This must’ve been a passive way to tell the viewers that “I got tired. I’m done.”
No, not really
as someone who has done youtube for 11 years now, it's really cool to see all of these same thoughts I've had and experienced laid out in a digestible video. great job Andrei

Bruh you make one of the laziest content out there, all you do is read tweets 💀
@the hevy literal truth
I feel like PewDiePie has gone through the whole thing on UA-cam and is now in a position where he Essentially “retired” and only makes videos for his own enjoyment, he’s also managed to prioritise his personal life, and can just leave without having to explain himself, his fans are understanding and have shown they’ll support him no matter what he choses to do
Some UA-camrs are like that to
Wdym you feel like. He’s out right said it in his one of his recent videos
I mean he deserves it. And he is still earning millions so it’s worth it eventually
I think dantdm is an example of this too
I mean he has said many times he considers himself retired
There's multiple possibilities to his disappearance
He's taking a very long break, his personal life is taking a turn, the ideas of quitting youtube in this video came to his head or this was his plan to making an ironic video

Realising now andrei attitude to the online world has changed alot over the last 5 years. From deleting all his socials and to almost no community engagement anymore, I feel sad watching this back now and thinking andrei is using this video as his possible exit from youtube. I really do hope he comes back because I have thoroughly enjoyed his for many years and loved the little clips of the wilfur lore during videos, I even got his youtooz. He may feel too pressured anymore to keep up with game of youtube anymore because it could be a chore to him now which is really sad to see. Its completely understandable and if you’ve ever had a youtube channel you will know what I mean very easily. We also have no idea what andrei’s mental state is due to his commentary format and that is of course okay, but I do wish he is doing okay and taking the break he needs. If he does decide to never come back and he reads this, I just want to say alot of us did really enjoy your content and wish you luck with whatever you have going on in your life :)
Edit: looking back at this video now and at the end andrei does actually hint he might be done with youtube as he closes the app, he then switches to a point of him building a cot of some sort for a baby signalling he has a child now, if thats the case congrats andrei!
Edit 2: Hes also got a wedding ring on haha and if that is a real life representation then big congrats!
He has a child??!! Good for him!!!

I miss his vids, but I’m glad that he’s taking time off to enjoy the real world.
If he does have a kid now, HUGE congrats to him!
I've been making content for almost 6 years now, and UA-cam has been making it very difficult to keep up for many reasons. Algorithm issues, losing subs from just uploading, the COPPA & Demonetization issues, and just overall not getting the same level of flexibility as before. Literally every decision UA-cam makes makes it less & less fun to edit & upload content. And I'm happy that more and more creators are aware of the issues. As of right now, UA-cam is just overfilled with garbage decisions, and I really hope they actually put creators & users first sometime in the future.
ok
FACTS
CEO needs to get out, as well every person who agreed and influenced her, simple as that.
If even the previous owners of UA-cam disagree with what you're doing to the site, then it's probably time to get the boot
Edit: Yes I know it is a childish stance and no, I definitely do not know how UA-cam's really runs
Posting a video that games a lot of traction that out of nowhere UA-cam deans on fit for the platform could cut a huge amount of potential revenue when the video reaches views in the millions it’s really a shame.
This!!! All of this!!! Totally agree
UA-cam is slowly destroying themselves. No other social media is causing their downfall, it's their own fault. They literally punish smaller creators and just keep focusing on bigger content creators.
READ MY NAME!!!
!!!!!!!
And when they want to support smaller creators they punish all creators.
@@mihailoaleksic3330 The dislikes being removed was for the mega corporations and you know it!
I think it's more punishing individuals and focusing on businesses, have you seen how corporate UA-cam has become?
THEY DONT EVEN HAVE A FUCKING SLOGAN ANYMORE!
seems like theres no social media to run to. twitter is a hellhole filled to the brim with toxic "woke" people and tiktok is toxic and has a horrible money hungry company
Andrei: **makes video on youtubers leaving**
Also Andrei: **leaves for 3 months and refuses to elaborate further**
Edit: can everyone shut up on how long it's been since he's uploaded I can comprehend time I'm not 5 I don't need you to keep commenting "iTs bEeN 7 mOnThS nOw" because I know its been 7 months so stop commenting about how time passed, we all know. No one cares

Wise words my friend 🤘 So much truth to this.
So true!
It’s really sad to see UA-cam continuing to not listen to their creators and ignore their requests to make the platform better, instead of dealing with issues like spam comments and bots, they remove the dislike button and telling creators to be family friendly whilst also not being family friendly
@Femonic The Hot no one ask you
@Femonic The Hot ok, who the hell gives a fucking shit? What do you get from saying that, huh?
@Femonic The Hot a fine example of youtube's corruption
Big companies love money 💰 🤑 💸 😪 👏 😒 💰 🤑 💸
Since the day youtube was bought by Google, the maib priority shifted towards advertisers, aka mad men.
Yo he secretly told us that he left UA-cam
“Why UA-camrs are leaving youtube” *Leaves*
If somebody were to create a better alternative to UA-cam, my concerns would be whether or not Google would let it enter the mainstream and whether it may seem like a great alternative but fall to the same depravity that current UA-cam has.

@you know this lmao bot
You can't we are a money driven society, and youtube is the best we have right now. It will eventually fall to hands of companies or people who will be more than willing to exploit the system. We are already seeing this in Kids Channels and Content farms and to youtube they are a higher priority as they bring in a lot of money which is essential for UA-cam and they can get away with a lot more stuff than normal everyday channels. In fact removing dislikes can also contribute to the success of the channels.
One more thing youtube is guilty of is not treating their creators properly leading to burnouts and people sticking to the same old formula to ensure their channels aren't snapped out of existence. A reason for this is improper censorship and double standard of youtube which heavily restricts what people can do on this platform by favouring what makes them money.
About the competition from Google, that is going to happen to any alternative as UA-cam to Google is very important for relevance. For example, Dailymotion has already faded to irrelevancy.
And as we all know UA-camrs can't solely rely on creativity, they need to make money too. Creativity does not thrive a lot in this environment unless it is profitable.
UA-cam is like hypixel they both are so popular that any competition is like a kayak to a giant ship
Being a creator is the best job I have ever had, and I'm so greatful to be here.
What I'm able to do with it and the people I can support in my position is honestly mind blowing.
It's also been the job with the most mental strain and borderline burnout by a long shot.
Anything from UA-cam randomly deleting your channel overnight or copyright abuse, to threats of doxxing. Or harassment and rumors/allegations spread by people who don't like you. Or just the everyday hate.
Not to mention the pressure of always producing, staying "relevant" or trying to manuver social standards (which are often based on forgein countries social climate) where you can be funny but not get cancelled.
There is a dark side to it and I totally understand the creators who get their plaque and decide to peace out
Very important topic to talk about, loved the video Andrei
READ MY NAME!!!
!!!!!!!
Absolutely! And that goes for any type of content creation, whether you're depending on it or not. For example, I started a comic a few years ago, thinking it would be easy, but I didn't understand the implications or the pressure to keep creating. Also hi Click c: (how does this only have 50 likes)

A: Burnout
B: Getting rich to the point where they got consumed by their ego and getting cancelled
C: Becoming Irrelevant
And...
D: *disappeared out of nowhere, without a trace, leaving all his/her fanbase worried.*
So relatable. Creators sometimes disappear for no reason.
Watch the end of the video again. He’s wearing a wedding ring and building a crib
I think Andei has hidden a message in the video. At 10:16 the guy who is assembling the baby chair thing is also the guy in the end screen. So i prob think he has become a dad, and focusing at that.
Omg ur right no wonder he's suddenly gone
i think thats him
Also if you look at his hand, there is a ring on the left hand. My mans married af.
I personally feel that the burnout happens faster in certain categories of UA-cam. Like animation, skit youtubers, etc. Stuff that takes time and effort but is given fraction of the attention. After uploading a certain amount of videos most people just give up and don't come back.
On the other hand, i see cringe youtubers who tend to manipulate kids in order to gain more attention than other youtubers. I don't see how they can put actual effort in making cringey videos on a daily basis.
In conclusion i think burnout happens to the best of us, following the numbers become addicting very fast. Creators are who they are because they love to make videos, not forced to make videos. They can only put out their best work if they feel their audience will like it.
Same thoughts as well. I wanted to be a channel as a fun side project but I don’t see it earning me anything but headaches
True! From my personal expreriences I used to make a butt ton of animations. I'm not saying they were good l'm just saying they're kinda time consuming and l get... not a lot of views and it's really easy to get burnt out. I sometimes go for MONTHS not uploading to my channel. It's kinda dumb how now l make art-related UA-cam Shorts (and animations sometimes but that's not my usual content lol) and those videos are kinda dumb but they somehow get more views. I guess work smarter not harder lol
This is a sign of UA-cam becoming a website for child predators basically
@@BakuPlayer no not really. It's more for cringy kids content makes by soulless corporations
@@popstel2286 ah, ok.
But if you think about it further, Troom Troom, Coin Minecraft Animation, even Elisocray have sexual content & kids watch their vids

This is why a lot of kids wanting to be online influencers actually need to take the time to think about what they actually want to be influencing. So many times have I seen people immediately jumping onto UA-cam and trying to copy their favorite content creators only to get very little results, leading them to just give up entirely.

For my thoughts as an Animator UA-camr, Its fun for the most part. It really changed my life in a way. Had the things Ive never had, tried the things Ive never tried, Of course no bad things lol. A whole lot of experience.
But the feeling of being burnt out and fearing that you will lose views if you don't upload enough sucks. I ignored this a few times and it affected my health till the point where its a possibility that I need surgery. Nowadays I'm trying to slow down and focus on my health despite losing views.
Anyone can be a UA-camr, you just need to put in effort into what you do and hopefully you can be blessed by the Algorithm.
But Personally I'm not sure if I can maintain this success in a few years time. Its a bit blurry, I might stop whenever who knows. But at least I have somewhere else to go if I do leave.
For those who dreams to be a UA-camr, tiktoker , insta influencer , whatever. no one is stopping you from becoming one, but just to be safe, make sure you have a backup plan when you feel like its going down.
I been following you since the early times of your channel growing, and I can definitely see what you mean by the fear of uploading too little or losing views, I mean hell I went a downward spiral into my own content bc I became obsessed with views subconsciously after one of my videos had a blow up bc of a trend, ever since then I been doing less and less, but now I'm starting to pick myself up and get back in the field, for anyone out there who wants to make content ALWAYS put yourself before content!
i don’t get it what exactly is back up plan like…what is a recommended back up plan

The problem with UA-cam is that it’s almost too big to fail so that alternatives have no time to breathe in the spotlight.

Did he actually leave?
@@chavitoplayz hasn’t uploaded in 7 months
I think the biggest pitfall career youtubers run into is that they make UA-cam their LIFE. Everything they do has to be related to or for the betterment of their channel.
To me, UA-cam is a job. I treat it like a job intentionally because that way I set boundaries for myself. I reserve time in a week to work, and the rest is for my own personal enjoyment. By treating it like a job, like it’s a 9-5 you ironically have a much healthier lifestyle than if you were to make UA-cam your life, which sounds crazy because people go into UA-cam to ESCAPE the 9-5.
Then again it’s not really a 9-5 in a traditional sense.
Hi Verified person, im your first like
The scary thing is that some people are like how Andrei described; giving up Netflix and their hobbies in favour of trying to build a channel. Do you feel that this kind of overly-enthusiastic grind is a result of the never-ending treadmill of UA-cam? When you have a video that performs well, it skews all the other analytics and you begin expecting those results all the time.
@@Sirdeathvids It's harder to avoid than you might think. When you look at things like socialblade and how it compares how you did month to month, it tempts you into wanting to beat your previous records, like a high score of sorts. People see that they gained 10k subs last month and are like "okay this month I want 15k!" because they don't want to just see growth, they want to seeing GROWING growth. If you gain 10k subs per month your channel is growing well but month to month charts skew your perceptions into thinking you're "stagnating" because it's showing how much you grew, not where you're at, if that makes sense.
That and the rush, the "high" so to speak, is really addicting haha.
@@Sirdeathvids throwing wood to the fire
I get what u saying. It's how Eminem treats his music career as a 9-5. He comes at studio by 9, lunch around 12 or 1 pm then goes home by 5 pm. That way personal and professional life is balanced.
I miss when UA-cam was fun, when people put whatever they want on it without others saying it was wrong. UA-cam was never meant for just kids, now all of a sudden Google keeps trying to make it so. I understand why there shouldn’t be nudity or gore, but COPPA still crossed the line.

Reason why they quiting, because money is an scam, contains comment toxicity and Serious Mental illnesses Problems
Entertainment is ruining society
This is why I think youtubers like Jeremy Jahns, Doug Walker, Angry Joe, Chris Stuckmann have stuck around for as long as they have.
There's always a movie to talk about, a tv show to dive into, video games to tear apart. I remember Jahns uploading monthly vlogs and they were a nice peak into his life, and people did want more of them. But you know what? Jeremy stuck to his guns on it just being a one and done thing. He's quite private about his life. And I think that also speaks to the success of some youtubers and the failures of others. There's pros and cons to being very open online. But the cons outweight the pros in my opinion. Make one mistake, that's hung over your head like a dark stain. It's why I just upload when I feel like it. My last review was Sonic 2020. I think it would be nice to review again, but my god a pandemic and how the United States was, and job hunting.....I put my actual life over my hobby. I think that's how people should look at youtube-make it a hobby. No matter where you work, you shouldn't hate going to work. And if youtube turns from hobby to job, and you hate it...it's time to leave.
Yep! I only made UA-cam a hobby because I feel that the UA-cam partnership is a load of bollocks. I just wanna have fun by making silly voices because I wanna become a voice actress in the future. I'm still learning but I'm taking my time with it and just trying to enjoy myself. Plus, I only upload when I feel like it, which I feel gives me more time to myself. As much as UA-cam can be a decent hobby (as long as you let your life revolve solely around it), I expect it can get pretty stressful for so many reasons, e.g. unwelcome changes to the algorithm, burn out due to uploading videos as per a tight schedule, etc.
I'm just rambling but yeah, that's my opinion on it.

Finally it’s here😂⬆️..
@@NobleCloverVA oh yeah I could never be a full time youtuber i'd get into so many stupid fights on twitter over movies and people would try to cancel me over that sht lol
@@TheRibottoStudios Amen to that!
true, but at the points youtube's main demographic is at their life, usually teens or early 20s, you usually don't have your dream job so you usually hate your job because it's something you have to do and don't like at all (like a job in fast food or grocery stores), at least in your early 20s
Your last video before leaving is about why people are leaving
This is why andrei isn’t uploading anymore 10:04 (watch it till the end)
I think why andrei is trying to say is that he’s taking a break or retiring from UA-cam and focusing in life because he got married (the ring on his finger) and is expecting or does have a kid now (because of the baby stroller that he is building)
Probably the best and most demanding job I have ever had, more so than being a hotel Chef Manager.
That being said, I still love it after 3 years. I make less money than a chef, but I get to be creative and try to be better and better.
Maybe I'm a masochist, but the forever student mentality in me to learn has really made me want to continue when I wanted to quit.
Ahhahahahahhaha what a disgusting and ignorant world we live in... "UA-cam is the hardest job Eva"... You sad people.
You "UA-camrs" are a disgrace to society and exactly the example of the classic phrase "humans always want more and more".
I really can't imagine how difficult your lives can be... Poor things, some have to work hard jobs all day for minimum wage and you spoiled brads are here crying for receiving buckets of money's for sitting at your computer for few hours.
"I can't believe I am at that stage of my life where I am actually looking up to Fred" is literally Jim Halpert saying "All my life I have told myself that I don't want to end up like Stanley, now I think do I even have what it takes" energy.
Great video Andrei. Every word rings true.
This vid was foreshadowing
Bro really said
“Ight imma head out”
The person no one asked to come back.. but the person we NEEDED back. Welcome back :D
@Obi-wan Kenobi stop spamming that motivational video everywhere
Come back? Wdym? Oh, you mean it took 2 months for this video to release? No that's normal.

Ok
I am a youtuber in North Africa and i 100% relate with this video , and fun fact , i made an ep last year that talks about the same thing and it called frostbite 🥶
Well guess this was his way of saying goodbye 😭😭😭
😂

@@crayon4203 bro fr thought he did something
It was a good run my guy. Hoping you come back soon. I'd like it if you came back, since your videos were pretty enjoyable, but if you're too busy then that's fine. Congrats on getting married and having a child(if that's what happened) and I wish you a great future
UA-cam has had one of, if not the LARGEST, fall from Grace of any platform on the internet. We went from an amazing platform where people could upload what they want, when they want, and how they want, without getting criticized for every little thing they do, to a platform that clearly only favors big, rich creators who can be potential cash cows for the company, while leaving everybody else in the dirt. So many amazing vids and channels deleted because UA-cam want’s to appeal to a certain minority. I’ve been on UA-cam since 2013, and I’ve seen a bunch of cool stuff from that time fall into the lost void in the internet, and it’s depressing
The certain minority is liberal Twitter and mainstream media and Hollywood and don't deny it either
Well the user base also increase, but doesn't explain the recent practises of them.
I don't know. I think MTV still had it the worst. That channel ain't about music videos no more.
I don't know if odysee (an alternative video platform) be the next content creator friendly platform, but I hope for the best if there's good reforms in this platform in the future.
agreed , things have become too pc.
I really needed this video. I started my channel a year ago and started out super small, but over the course of 2021 my content blew up. At first it was really exciting, and it still is... but I also felt nervous. I don’t WANT to be the most famous person in the world. I don’t WANT to have it consume my life. And I am taking measures to help that: I don’t monetize, I don’t live off of UA-cam, I don’t show my face or give any personal details about myself, in hopes that my internet persona and my true self can remain separate. But I still struggle. So thank you for bringing this topic to light; it opened my eyes to what I need to do to keep myself on the right track
1. Ring in his finger.
2. He closes the UA-cam app on his channel's name
3. "There isn't much of a question to pass on to you guys as we close off this video"
These are subtle hints that he's leaving UA-cam.
Also a crib
Well he didn't leave
This was his way of saying goodbye indirectly
this has happened in the past, and always will happen. once a company gets big enough, it will stop caring about public opinion and relationships with partners or in this case, content creators, and instead head down the route of squeezing every last bit of profit out of any opportunity they can find.

@Femonic The Hot what
the fact that youtubers eventually
lose interest in thir careers actually gives other youtubers a chance to shine in a way
Nah not really. We don't usually see a big UA-camrs quit and then get replace by a smaller content creator.
It's kinda like generations to me if that makes sense
READ MY NAME!!!

When I watched this a while ago I didn't realize it was goodbye hope you are doing well andrie.
Andrei, oriunde ai fi, sper că ai noroc în viață, multă sănătate!
You know, ever since I found out what UA-cam was, I wanted to create content and entertain others. That dream hasn’t died, but it’s gotten harder to complete because school has been stressing me out to the point I can’t animate cuz I’m exhausted or barely get time to myself… and every time I look at those animators who also helped inspire me, I felt SHAME when I saw that literally as TEENAGERS, they were doing 1000000000000000 times better than I am… they had school, and perhaps even other jobs, and yet they managed to complete things I still struggle to do. I hate how it feels… to see others that are/were my age doing the things I want to with more ease and dedication while I’m just here struggling and doing nothing to actually improve… I still want to animate and write my show, I still want to entertain, but it’s become harder to do it the way I want to. So I’m trying to create smaller content for everyone else so that they don’t become bored with the little work I’m putting out…
I can only hope that once I graduate and can take a break, I’ll finally be doing better… I still really want to animate
@RedArchive I agree, I just still wanna put out more because I often feel lazy. It’s a bit of a lose lose rn. Either I work on an animation and burn myself out, or I don’t work and then get crushed by that feeling of in accomplishment.
Well, at least spring break is coming up, I’ll probably feel better soon enough and I’ll be able to make some more animations
For me I am afraid if people will be bored and hate my animations, and when I look at many other animators I feel like no way my animation will be as good as them.
@@defdefsoul5191 for me i just try to make my animations better and better and it seems to be working out
@@rae-rae8005 I think getting inspiration from other animations and using them as reference can def help you. Or just start with weak Animations and then get better and better as it goes, well thats what i did with my animations atleast and it does make me feel proud to see how far i've come from pretty bad animations to ok animations
@@emmalion1976 good for you that it seems to be working out
I feel bad sometimes for the creators who make high-quality videos and only get a fraction of the views it deserves. I saw someone make an amazing video diary but reached only 3k views in a month. The channel has almost a *million* subscribers
What’s the name of the video? I lowkey wanna see it now
Me too
Same here
LOL
I just found your channel, and I'm just happy to find another Andrei
I really enjoyed this video. And you made some great points..
Keep up the great work. I will be watching😊
Aaah finally a new video

And another cliche negative take, let's go
That's what I'm saying
As Small Creator Myself, I Really Get Why Some Of My Creator Friends Leave The Community because of Burn Out, No Self Confidence etc
I felt that way too,Another Reason is, so much censοrship on this website makes Creators to leave the platform...
READ MY NAME!!!
!!!!!!!
Nope :)
I’m 13 years in and about 60k subscribers but have noticed this year, more and more negative comments and my audience feeling free to nitpick about nothing. They get free videos each week and they have never made a single video, but they complain about everything. It’s exhausting. I feel like just uploading to patreon where people who pay are more likely to appreciate my content
Wow! Yeah, it's not worth the stress, and the ingratitude some content creatores receive is quite aggressive at times, as if you deleted their dog or cat and they want to take revenge on you. It's ludicrous. On top of that you get paid nothing, while YT is racking in the millions off the back of the digital "slaves". Making content costs money. It's not worth it. They think youtubers are rich or something (some who are in the millions subs are, but not anybody who's under 100k subs, most creators are just regular people with regular jobs and lives). If they complain, they can go pay cable or yt subscription lol
Question, can you upload content only to Patreon? Or do you have to first upload to youtube and then link to Patreon? I'm considering it for one of my channels.
The fact the last video he made (this) was about why UA-camrs are leaving UA-cam,then he just vanishes.
I cant blame those UA-camrs, the algorithm is getting worse
UA-cam shorts arr mostly cringe
Minecraft youtubers are getting worse
Our favorite old youtubers now are getting cringe
I just want the old UA-cam back…
Eh Nathaniel Bandy still good imo
READ MY NAME!!!

Old youtubers are getting cringe because they just want to actually have an audience since most of their old audience either forgot about them or don't have time to watch them.
oof that last line
i remember 2012 smg4...
If we rely on UA-cam for money. Then it's tough.but for passion. It's fun
You again,how are u always in all the videos i watch? How!!?!
@@louisthelemur1238 i think it's based on the algorithm or the more popular channels?
wise words

exactly.but he returned a month ago

If he does come back, i would be suprised.
@@TankCatGaming Be surprised
80,000 subscribers and I've been doing this for years. I'm already burned out. Totally relate to this video. Working full time I had to sacrifice a lot to do UA-cam, and after 5 years of only a 1 day weekend I've almost had enough.
Thanks for raising awareness, amazing animation as always! 💝👌
Fulfillment Vs. Clout. Makes me respect all the UA-camrs that find the happy medium all the more.
"Why UA-camrs are leaving UA-cam"
*vanishes for 5 months*
Ik
with no sign of returning
Does anyone have any information on what happened to him?
@@directorwolfofficial not sure, a few people are making educated guesses and saying that his channel was hacked which kind of makes sense sends another UA-cam animator is channel is hacked it within the 6 months time frame.
maybe he has a kid as shown in the end of the video and will not upload until the child grows older and kind of survive for a few hours on it's own
Andrei - I do miss you and your awesome videos ... a lot ... ! Are you "okay" and just busy - or did I miss something and you really left UA-cam ?
Lots of Love to you and Wilfur from Germany !
Me being a UA-camr I completely understand this video and trust it’s alot of pressure but it’s really based off what you feel like because everyone feels different about UA-cam
as someone who just blew up honestly same :P like now i feel a little pressure to make something that has never been made before and its actually sorta annoying even tho it feels fucking fantastic to have my views be at a level thats good. yk?
The decision to become a youtuber is a commitment that I find very hard to make at this point, given real life things, but it's refreshing to see a veteran's perspective.
Man that closing line "Thank you for watching see you again soon" really hits home after 9 months of no uploads
Fr
Bro it's been 7 months where are you?
I've worked towards being an epic and successful *true* youtuber since I was 9 years old. And when I finally did it, I basically lost all sorts of motivation in less than a year. That 9 year old me would be looking at me and thinking that I'm dumb, what am I even doing if not videos with a channel like this. But as soon as you *have* to deliver for the algorithm and for your audience, it loses its magic. But those few months will forever be the best months of my life.
And just to round it off, I still believe that UA-cam Shorts killed 80% of channels like mine, posting short, under 1 minute videos, in the normal way. Perfect example of the platform's almost suicidal actions happening these days.
Hey just wanted to say, thanks for trying to look out for us who are just starting out on this platform and trying to keep it real on what to do and what not to do. Love your channel man.
10:33 *"as always, thank you for watching and we'll see you again very soon 👋"*

I love the video. The way you explained and the animation is really good💗💗
Honestly you are picking some great topics lately!
Yea I can relate, but UA-cam is my life and took it real easy now. Was really crazy back then, algorithm is hurting me but I feel more fulfilled talking about things I like and making fulfilling art. Soon UA-cam will die out though because of this stupid algo. Other platforms are a bit better when it comes to creator betterment
come to odysee
Speaking of youtubers leaving UA-cam…
