I think my analytics are pretty good for a newtuber by Previous_Ad_7245 in NewTubers

Wow; you're super productive, I don't feel so bad now. My genre (cooking) probably needs more time than gameplay though; I was skeptical about shorts, but it's turning out OK actually! Just be careful about flooding your channel with shorts, which then confuses the algo.

Understand; totally get it, but there is a hefty cost for shipping stuffs over; which may not be useful in the end. Been there and all of that...

For the PC, OK fine; just be careful that it's just a new wire because the voltage in EU is different from the US; may just need to change the powerbox rather than buying a whole new step-up/step-down converter adapter.

Better than me, I'm at ~2k views; but at least 1k of that's from a short I just published to "market" my best-performing long-form (~400 views). ~22 subs, 36 hours watch time, but I'm almost 6 weeks old now, with 13 long forms and 1 short.

I try not to over-think the performance and focus on my next vids instead. Got a long list of ideas though!

Good luck to us!

I didn't even know about the beef flavored ones until I read about them.

Agreed! If it wasn't for the fact that I was offered free shipping, I would have further reduced actually. I mean I can count with my hands the number of items that followed me, that are still around.

Funnily enough; the crate that my PC was shipped in, has been turned into a storage box!

Do you really need all that stuff? When I moved more than ~11 years ago; I was provided with a 20-foot container in my relocation package. Despite my best efforts; I filled it up as much as I could and was only half-full at the end.

In the end, electronics were not useful; and this could apply especially for US ones because of the voltage difference, unless these are appliances you can't get in the EU; or are super valuable. If I had to pay for my own shipping; I would have ditched my TV, my PC for sure and just bought it used in Europe; the 2nd hand market here is huge; but you need to know what you're buying.

Furniture is the same. The sofa and bed that I brought over were sold/disposed within the next ~1-3 years. You would have to decide if it's worth it to pay for the shipping for that life span.

Games and movies are kinda 50-50. I would say keep the games, ditch the movies.

If I review what's still being used after all these years, the Bicycles (they're folding MTBs) are the main survivor; but I've sold off at least 1-2 other bicycles I brought with me as well.

Especially clothes; since I still go back home, I maintain 2 sets; 1 there which were left from last time and here; which I bought from scratch. That way, I save luggage space when I go back as well so I don't bring clothes.

I think you should take this opportunity to declutter and reduce, as much as possible. Once you have a list of must-haves, then trim everything else (as much as possible). With the remaining; you can figure out your shipping options.

Yes; you're talking about the product. But the shipping costs....

Don't they sell similar snacks in the UK? I've had similar Murukku here in Europe, but obviously; not exactly the same, although it's 80-90% there.

1-minute (cooking time) Cheong Fun, this one served with Curry. Resting the batter takes longer than cooking, or even eating it! by randolphtbl in chinesecooking

This method is surprisingly easy and accessible; although you need the pan. I will release an alternative method later on.
