I’ve noticed this thing with singers and actors too. They’ll hit a peak and then due to just the passing of time or other factors they’ll kinda loose relevancey then they go on to either still keep putting out music or show up on tv and people are like “why are they still trying to be relevant they need to go” like??? Just because a person isn’t as relevant as they used to be dosnt mean they should give up something they truely love doing and as long as their still able to support themselves then simply quitting their job because there not as popular is just stupid to me

I had a hand on trying to live off being a Twitter artist. I quit my 9-5 and did a lot of commissions and had decent number of followers and engagement. But I never expected it to impact my ego and mental health so badly. You see it with how art youtubers would start beefs with each other to keep their relevance and how the internet can be incredibly hostile to the extreme. Eventually I went back to a 9-5 as a designer and I realized that a structured environment is where I thrive. The hustle and grind being an internet person is really not for everyone, you need a lot of mental fortitude to navigate that world.

this!! so much. omg i tried to do the online artist thing via Instagram, had a pretty solid following and fan base, but it absolutely killed my drive to do any type of art whatsoever. i ended up having to leave the account and move to a new one because i would get so much anxiety even looking at it. especially since i had this mentality that i had to keep posting “new” and “fresh” ideas all the time- it became more of a chore rather than something i enjoyed doing. i love making art and i am extremely passionate about it so losing that part of me, for a period of time, was very devastating. so you’re absolutely right that that kind of hustle and grind is not for everyone. all in all though, i’m happy to have my drive back with being creative again 💞💞

Love this video. I would really like to take it a step further and question exactly WHY "dying" channels are viewed in such a negative and toxic light. Why do people see channels that used to get more views and think "This person is a has-been" "This channel is dying" "This person is not relevant anymore" like those are measures of worth or success? What does it say about the people who think these things? What insecurities are these a reflection of? As someone with a channel that did sorta peak in the early days of youtube, hearing that kind of talk scared me from trying new things. Nobody said it directly to or about me, but I saw plenty of my youtuber friends who trailed off and moved on to something else being spoken about in that way. So then it's like, okay I used to get more views, but now if I put work into these videos and don't get more then it appears like I'm trying too hard, or I'm failing, or I'm embarrassing myself. Why do people see it that way? Why does relevancy matter to so many people and what even makes a person "relevant", and when they're not relevant anymore, why do people literally want them to just disappear off the internet and never come back?

On the other side I see KZitemrs started to prepare their other sources of income & basically know that eventually, they will change careers. Especially now when the cycle is way faster than a few years ago. I have so much respect for Cristine from Simply Nailogical that she still keeps her job.

How do you know they will need to change careers? There are lots of KZitemrs that are in their 60's, 70's and beyond. If someone is talking about a timeless topic they can have a great channel their entire life. If they are a gamer that might be tough since that's mostly kids, but otherwise, not chasing fame is good and building a YT channel can be great your entire life.

This may be late but the ace family is a perfect example of this. Of course their view ship hasn’t dropped at all but they where spending a lot more money than they should’ve (ie buying two mansions and merging it to make on big mega mansion that cost $10 million) You’d always see them picking up new cars, clothes and investing in dodgy businesses also having an inflated sense of confidence and ego, thinking they can earn much more then they usual earn during charity events. Now they’re facing heavy lawsuits of 100’s of millions of dollars and getting the mansion auctioned to. I feel so bad for those little kids

I couldn't even kind of make it on KZitem, so I moved to TikTok. Did decent (kinda) pretty quickly (still very small numbers, but it made me feel really accomplished). Then, videos started getting less and less views, and it really messed with my mental health because I felt like nothing I was doing was working at all. I'm currently on a hiatus, and focusing on not letting it get to me. I got obsessed with the numbers, and it's not like I was making money or anything. It's so easy to get dragged down. Hearing actual creators confess their feelings actually made me feel a lot better. Thank you for for this video, and putting it into perspective.

I think part of the frustration with graveyard girl though was that in the documentary it seemed as if she wanted to gain more fans again and was sad that she was past her peak. So it was confusing that she wouldn't take advice that would help her gain relevancy again. You're right that she doesn't have to change for anyone, and she should pursue what makes her happy. But if she hadn't been in that docuseries seeking help, then people wouldn't be criticizing her for her lack of change (or fewer people would be at least).

I have debated with myself on starting a KZitem channel for years now. I'm an entertainer by nature and it would scratch an itch. But the more I see, the more I want to stay the hell away from it. Being a KZitemr sounds like one of the most stressful jobs in existence. I have anxiety and depression and I do not need that kind of unreliability in my life plus metrics being shoved in my face every time I log on. Bunny's KZitem channel is a classic example. Why should you be forced to change who you are and what you like for millions of people you don't even know, or risk losing everything? I'd rather not put myself in the position of having to consider that choice.

As a KZitemr, the journey is a challenge when you open yourself up to the public, but just do your thing. Speak your truth and don’t even think about the numbers, because this world once bought only one painting of Van Gogh’s while he was alive and even J.R.R Tolkien had his critics. Shine your own unique light and you will attract those who can recognize it, resonant to their own, creating a nice community to connect to-large or small.

I always think marzia is such a key case to look at. She never wanted a channel or dreamed of a KZitem career instead it was expected due to being the girlfriend of pewdipie, even having her channel named marziapie originally. She eventually left KZitem all together, not due to a lack of success but because she understood it was never her dream and wanted to pursue other things. I think it was incredibly brave and a great example of someone leaving despite still having massive success, good income and a lack of drama.

And the way he was able to adapt his content towards his audience + the diversity in age in his audience which I find really interesting since most people have a target audience with age.

One thing I've learned about myself working in a 9 - 5 is that I thrive in stability and enjoy a traditional office setting. I see so much "boss babe" and hustle culture rhetoric that makes working a 9 -5 seem like a bad thing when it doesn't have to be. Some people want to be entrepreneurs and be their own boss, others want an office job that gives a predictable workload and hours. Neither is bad, but right now people are really shitting on people who are working a 9 -5 and don't have a side hustle they're trying to make their primary source of income

I completely agree. So many people will bash you and call you a sheep, but maybe some people really want to work in, and are passionate about, careers like finance, accounting, pharmacy etc where you likely have to work a 9-5 since that’s where the jobs are. Not everyone needs to be an “entrepreneur”, and most entrepreneurs aren’t contributing anything that significant or groundbreaking anyway.

i feel like there's also a LOT of creators that started as a "i'm just like you" type of personality, and as they blew up, they tried to "maintain" this relatability. and obviously, it's quite hard to relate to someone who now lives in a mansion and orders take out 3x per day when you're living in a one bedroom apartment, struggling to make ends meet. I think that's probably the one type of video that a creator cannot get away with maintaining forever...

I grew my channel doing reaction videos, when I made original content I didn’t get even close to as many views as I would doing a reaction video. I felt like I grew an audience that didn’t really like me, for me and it was hard to process. I still get comments about having a dying/irrelevant channel and it used to bother me but not many people actually put themselves out there to fail. I just try to ride the waves now, and enjoy it while it’s happening.

Idk if this will make you feel better as I dont watch ur vids but a pov from a consumer of a lot of reactionary content. It's not the original content I find funny. I watch reactions as I want to see the creator react to some balls to the walls content. To me, reactionary content makes a boring tv show funny, I'm there for the reactions and the person, not just for the original content. So they dont dislike you, it's likely that they just prefer the way you bounce off something that's already there. To me those kind of videos are just more charismatic than someone just alone in their bedroom. I would almost describe the OC as a comedic lubricant, to help bring out the funniest version of you

I don't know how long ago you started doing more original content, but it could just be that the viewers who enjoy that stuff haven't found you yet, and all your current subscribers are the ones who love reaction videos. Like maybe it will just take time for the right viewers to find you, because in a way, you're almost starting from the beginning again. So in that sense, it wouldn't make sense to compare your channel now with how it was before, you should think of your channel as if it were a completely new channel.

I've always suspected that Jenna Marble's departure from youtube was partially due to her feeling done with the platform or bored with her content. This way, her exit was more "graceful" than if she had fought through the controversy only to leave 6 months later anyways. She found herself at a natural stopping point and, though ending on a low note, took advantage of it.

Whenever I have a "low performing" video I have to remind myself that KZitem is not like other social media platforms. With Instagram or Twitter your post will get most of it's engagement in the first few days then it will be lost in void. With KZitem a video that was posted 4 months ago or even 4 years ago is easily found through a simple search. So even if a video gets low views in the first week it may still end up being my best video in a couple months. As a small creator I'm not making videos for my job so that stress isn't on my shoulders so I can distance myself from the views easier than a full-time KZitemr

She explained that when the views started going down she made those weird life hacks videos and then started faking emotional breakdown on live (she made 10k$ with this lives) to finally having to admit she was broke and had been doing what she did for atention. She was then evicted from her house. I feel bad for her but it's also an interesting way to see how losing your fame may affect you.
