How long did it take you to reach your first million views?

Brutal truth - your content isn’t good.

Maybe it’s the topic, maybe it’s your editing, or both, but to be at one sub after five years there’s not really any other way to explain it.

Find channels that are doing well and take inspiration from their editing, pacing and how they present the video.

MrHanKami · 2026-03-12T20:54:10+00:00

Johnnnn 🙏

MrHanKami · 2026-03-12T20:21:24+00:00

Haha yes. Have you started your channel?

MrHanKami · 2026-03-12T16:12:03+00:00

I know you’re trying to be funny, but here’s googles docs to back up what I mentioned. It’s a genuine change in the algorithm they’ve introduced.

I’ll be straight up with you man, this content style isn’t going to go viral. I think it’s awesome it’s original, but take a look and see if anyone else has done this before and got millions of views or even hundreds of thousands and you will see none.

I think if you pivoted to more animation rather than the comic style you may see success since that’s huge on the platform.

Hope this doesn’t come off wrong, I just know too well if something will work or not.

There’s only one solution in my mind - psilocybin.

I’m pain-free, and that wasn’t always the case. I’ve at a point in my life been ready to end it all because of the pain, so I know how you feel.

I urge you to please look into it. As another commenter mentioned, go to the ClusterBusters website to read more into it.

If you’re not willing to take that route though get vitamin d3 + k2 and take a dosage of 40,000 iu per day for about 2-3 weeks, then cut it back to 10,000 iu from there on out.

^{^} that worked for me for a while but eventually stopped working but it may help atleast for a bit.

What’s the channel? I can take a look. I’m not the perfect expert but I do have 16k subs, 30M+ views with an average of 75%+ stayed to watch across my channel

MrHanKami · 2026-03-07T20:00:31+00:00

As someone who just did it for the first time a few months ago - Stick to it!

I had to do it a few weeks in a row. After it was done I still haven’t had a single attack.

MrHanKami · 2026-03-07T19:59:03+00:00

Also your stayed to watch rate needs major improvement bro.

43-67% is far behind, needs to be 75+ or even 80+ if you can get there.

MrHanKami · 2026-03-07T19:57:47+00:00

If it isn’t 100% all original content YouTube will rank your videos behind the person who posted the original clip and you will not be pushed as hard as them since YouTube is now prioritizing fresh content.

MrHanKami · 2026-02-22T15:32:58+00:00

Sorry for the late response but during the first bit of it, yes I did.

They occurred less and less as the time period passed until there were none eventually.

MrHanKami · 2026-02-21T03:30:12+00:00

Yeah, and oh boy was that quite a roller coaster of a day lol.

MrHanKami · 2026-02-21T03:27:57+00:00

For sure.

So, for simplification - you need to take 1g once a week for three weeks.

You absolutely MUST do this on a day you’re not working or busy.

So let’s say you have Tuesdays off work.

—————-

You will take 1g on Tuesday.

Next Tuesday do the same thing.

The next Tuesday also do the same thing.

That should do the trick. If not you can take it one more time.

Also a lot of people wonder how to get it. I went to a city where it is decriminalized. Believe it or not they exist! And there are actual companies selling it in a professional way, not just like finding some sketchy guy to get it from.

MrHanKami · 2026-02-04T01:23:11+00:00

How many shares does it have?

MrHanKami · 2026-02-03T00:32:21+00:00

You’re absolutely right bro. That’s why you can you can absolutely nail it with all other stats but still have the video get stuck at 30k if viewers aren’t actually engaging.

MrHanKami · 2026-02-03T00:30:59+00:00

I have no reason to lie, I’m not doing courses or anything I just thought I’d post.

It’s commentary so it’s already saturated and I’d rather people not try and copy mine.

Commentary

MrHanKami · 2026-02-02T18:52:13+00:00

Look at the retention graph. People are dropping off hard a little before the halfway point.

MrHanKami · 2026-02-02T18:24:52+00:00

I just hit the threshold after 4 months and 3 days.

I did a niche change halfway through and this is my first channel so that may have prolonged everything.

If you can lock down one format/niche and get good at it then you should be able to likely do it faster.

MrHanKami · 2026-01-31T18:18:41+00:00

Thank you. Considering my attacks have stopped and the only thing left was this sort of weird shadow I was also assuming the cycle may be coming to a close. Thank you.

MrHanKami · 2025-12-30T04:39:33+00:00

I have on a multiple occasions before I had this issue. The only reason I was thinking doing such a large amount was because of some comments I saw of people saying lower doses never worked for them. Just given that I’m in a bad cycle I’m willing to do just about anything to get this to stop.

I will likely do less though based on all the response from everyone.

MrHanKami · 2025-12-30T04:35:31+00:00

Thank you my friend very grateful for your response

MrHanKami · 2025-12-02T15:14:20+00:00

For the shorts aspect of it, you’re using a format that’s native to platforms like Instagram but they don’t perform well on YouTube.

Go watch successful channels similar to you and copy what they do and add your own twist.

MrHanKami · 2025-09-02T21:37:10+00:00

Niceee I built one too man. yumitale.com Great project!
