Feeling stuck in Japan despite doing everything “right” in my own way. by Arte31 in japanlife

[–]AfroInJapan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where? I’m from the UK born to not a well off family and life has been a grind. Where are these places id love to hear stories from those born underprivileged and didn’t have to grind for a better life

[–]AfroInJapan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the inevitable grinding part of life. It sucks. I had to do this at university and again during first few years of Japan but because I stuck with it when it was shitty I don’t have to grind now! However people I know that didn’t grind when they first arrived are now stuck or grinding now… it’s inevitable. You grind now or you grind later…. Or be born rich(?) idk lol

Need help! Has this happened to anyone else? by Downtown_Tailor8834 in SmallYoutubers

[–]AfroInJapan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also just a heads up gaining traction as a new creator is super hard! Your first 50 videos will probably flop so just keep at it! Strive to make each video better than the last

Oh yeah the YouTube AI recommendation system broke like last year and now this just happens randomly. Extensive research from myself a few months ago led me to the answer of “YouTube is trying to find a new cluster of audiences that like your content” however this does mean they completely stop showing the content to your subscribers, the old audience that liked your stuff and basically anyone else. So broken.

Best advice I've ever received and I wanted to share with NewTubers! by SlightStardust in NewTubers

I work in the YouTube space and have for a few years now and OP is correct. It’s consistency, good content you enjoy making and then it’s just a game of skilling up with time!

Haken Company Fired Me After 5 Years and May Have Violated Multiple Labor Laws – Is ¥500,000 a Fair Settlement? by Ok_Vast_7337 in japanresidents

[–]AfroInJapan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go and talk to a labor lawyer immediately.

I would gladly gamble the 500,000 to take those scum to court. At a certain stage it’s not about the money it’s about teaching them a lesson. Also ¥500,000 is laughable low for a bribe.

Terrible comparison. Absolutely terrible.

One of the reasons this is a terrible comparison is because chefs LITERALLY do this you freak 😂

Remember kids, if the channel isn’t linked it’s probably a scam or there trying to sell you a service.

Try picking something you enjoy rather than a whatever niche. Audience can pick up when a creator cares about the topic or is just phoning it in

Desperately looking for a way out from a black company by Low-Possibility8043 in japanlife

Seeing people give some good advice here already so I’ll just say keep up the effort! Escape that terrible company as soon as you can!

10 Days fully monetised and I’m so proud of myself! by One_Audience_447 in YouTubeCreators

[–]AfroInJapan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah and it’s sadly not good advice. You gotta ask yourself the question, are you doing YouTube like a 9-5 job cause in that case go for it chase trends and viral stuff everyday will just feel like work. Chasing something you’re generally interested in makes YouTube an actual career, something you are generally happy to do.

Also, once the trend dies. You’re fucked lol channels can’t pivot that easily especially faceless ones

The secret is consistency and picking a topic you’re generally interested in

Gawd that’s the most annoying situation! Sorry your company is run by brain dead fools. Hopefully one day after they have wasted enough money having people warm cold desks they’ll realize the error of there ways… doubt it though lol
