When people ask why I love YouTube, it's because when I upload videos on the platform, I feel like I am actually building something. Building a channel feels like building a house. Brick by brick, video by video, it grows. And years later, it still stands. Sometimes, on other platforms, it feels like I'm not really building something I’m just renting space.
This week is a good example: a video I uploaded in May 2023 has gained traction again. It had stable performance for a while but now it’s getting a boost, which feels nice because something I invested so much time in is still paying dividends.
