Here's something creators don't like talking about. I see every negative comment everyone makes about everything I make. This is one of 1000's, and I know 'just don't respond'. But god damn every day is just a barrage of very personal critical messages and it adds up man.
The larger the audience, the more difficult it is to please these bad apples. If these people wanted to, they could easily have constructive criticism over what they want or straight out dislike, but instead they resort to bringing people down. I among many, will say that your content is still as entertaining as it's ever been to watch, and I always look forward to anything new you create or are apart of. :)
josh ive always hoped we could be friends as we seem to have a lot of silly shit in common, and yeah people will say "just don't respond" and thats all well and good but words can be medicine or poison and once your brain sees them you can't unsee them, this gentleman obviously does not understand the creative process and the amount of stress a creator witll put themselves under trying to make sure everything is perfect to the standards they set for themselves to deliver. they fail to see how you are always making your videos for an audience of 1 and hoping they agree with your vision and enjoy the work put in. i truly believe you are doing the best you can with the tools provided and i wish you noothing but the best. you're friend and viewer Extant Doom (yes this is the name i go by as an AKA)
@JoshStrifeHayes When you see them as they are, pity or embarrassment is more fitting than a response. This is probably the hardest mental exercise as a content creator.
@JoshStrifeHayes Thanks for sharing this. Gives me some confidence as a “smaller” creator that we all get this kind of comments. Solidarity or something. 😎
@JoshStrifeHayes Your content brightens my day. I don't expect a banger every day or every week. When a see new JSH vid I just smile and know that my day is about to get better. Thank you, keep doing what you do the best you can do it.
@JoshStrifeHayes It's very easy to dehumanize other people over the Internet. Always has been. I'm sorry you have to deal with people who are so casually inconsiderate.
@JoshStrifeHayes this guys an entitled piece of shit. but also, he commented on your video, boosting it in the algorithm, sooo joke's on him lol btw i cant wait to get my plush of some YTer
@JoshStrifeHayes I like your style; you are like a stylish terminator for analysing exploitative systems. G
@JoshStrifeHayes @SlyAceZetaX -- There's also the 'shouting into the void' aspect for smaller creators where we'll put tons of content out there and get little to no indication that anyone's watching what we've spent so much time on generating.
@JoshStrifeHayes Only non content creators think they have it all figured out lol. He doesn’t like you are successful at something he can’t do. I loved some of your content so hopefully that helps.
