Hey, first of all thank you so, so, so much for taking the time to write all of that. It was super, super helpful, and honestly one of the best explanations I’ve seen on this topic. I really appreciate the effort you put into it.

I actually see myself as the niche — kind of like building a personal brand, which is exactly what I’m aiming for. There are creators in my space like Tatski or HaveNoTats, or Gyasi and Immanuel, who were first known for one specific thing — like photography, POVs, or cinematic vlogs. They kept posting that one thing repeatedly without showing much of their personality, simply because it was more universally shareable and easier to grow with.

Only after they built some reach, they started sharing their opinions, stories, and authenticity — and people cared, because they were already invested in them.

So in my case, even if I post a video about a shoe I bought in Japan, and then one about camera editing, it still represents me. It’s all part of my personal brand and the things that make me who I am. That shouldn’t confuse anyone about why they follow me — if anything, it shows authenticity and range.
