If your audience will disappear because you go away for 5 minutes you were probably not providing anything of value in the first place
first of all these people are basicly making others buy crap they dont really want. second: this is just an article about young workers, who work too much and cant seperate their private life from worklife. could have been an insightful newspiece if it werent for guardian and the usual forced buzzwords.
Funny. I follow some creators, but if they don't post I'll just check back later, and the content will still be relevant.
If your followers just leave you if you don't post, your content is probably shallow and doesn't really add much value to the world.
The algorithm is also fucked, but you use it to your advantage when you can, so can you really complain about the downside? This is what you choose to work with.
That being said, making good content is hard and really time consuming. So I get that there is stress.
But I believe if you make good solid content that suits you and your style, you don't need to get into a pissing contest with the algorithm. Upload when you want, make what you want and you will attract viewers. They are out there, and they will find you through searching.
Yeah most of the content I watch is still useful years later. Now it may not be super current since tech changes so fast, but still useful. If you have to stay in someone’s face all the time to stay memorable, you’re not memorable or relevant.
Lol
Won't someone think of the poor influencers!? Sorry, "creators". Just like Van Gogh and Stanley Kubrick.
If someone calls themselves an “influencer“ I immediately want to punch them in the face.
Get a better job.
Get a job*
You say that but i appreciate their efforts. And wile i will understand and expect creators to work at their own pace, if only the algorithm wasn’t 100% momentum driven AND/OR i could just get front page notification when my subs post something, and didn’t just unsub me for not watching a video for a wile. I am an adult and can manage my own feeds
