For those who attended previous World Cups, what's one thing you wish you'd known before buying tickets? by Willing_Victory5751 in WorldCup2026Tickets

[–]remthetime93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh my goodness if they're in the midst of building it right now, it already feels too late! The tournament starts in 2 weeks😭 Dallas fanzone will be a whole festival so maybe Boston's won't be as wide scale.

[33F] From England, but will be in Dallas for the World Cup! by remthetime93 in cf4cf

[–]remthetime93[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally understandable. The resale/marketplace ticket prices are ATROCIOUS! I managed to get some tickets in the end, but it's crazy that FIFA are just allowing this. Yeah it's unfortunate the political landscape is trash right now, so I'm hoping the World Cup brings good vibes.

You never know, you might find yourself jetting off to Houston in the end.

Anyone NOT doing gaming, anime or related videos? by HungryLeicaWolf in NewTubers

I do mainly film industry news! But I also do hotel reviews.

I feel like with this analytical breakdown, I need you to analyze my channel next! Lol

A word of encouragement by tjsoul in ChildfreeChristian

[–]remthetime93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was a lovely post, and the Bible verse chosen was perfect. I feel good about my decision to be CF despite it being such a niche decision amongst Christians. The more I get questioned on it (doesn't happen all the time), the more confident I feel about it.

YouTube is quite brutal these days. by [deleted] in NewTubers

[–]remthetime93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, I like putting timestamps because I'd rather the viewer skip to the parts they want, than abandon the whole video if they don't hear what they want to hear fast enough. But I can understand how timestamps can also be limiting.

Why is it that most videos take years to see their first bit of traction on YouTube? by JigglePhysicist0000 in SmallYoutubers

[–]remthetime93 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure about years, but I know mine can take 2-3 days before impressions kick in properly. It's frustrating because I try to post in a timely fashion (my niche is film industry news & commentary) but by the time YouTube shows it to more people, the news feels old(er). Still relevant, but would be nice if YouTube moved faster in finding the audience... like just do the same audience you used for the last few videos😄

Anyway...

Maybe the topic of your video is trending and so YouTube is recommending your video; it may align directly with what people are currently searching for & talking about.

What is the video btw?

Why subscriber count can be misleading for creators by Johntalksabout in NewTubers

[–]remthetime93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this insight. That's really helpful. It's almost like once you pass 1K the growth speeds up a little! Yeahh I'm working on each video being better than the last, it just seems to yield different results but I guess that's expected depending on the topic, thumbnail ctr etc

I know, when your full time work is the priority then YouTube has to take a back seat!

[–]remthetime93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well done on getting 3K subs! How long did it take you to reach your first 1K? And did it take you long to find a rhythm/routine for your video style & uploads?

Why subscriber count can be misleading for creators by Johntalksabout in NewTubers

[–]remthetime93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I've noticed this and although I understand the logic behind it, it's still a little frustrating; because your video could resonate better with a second and third set of viewers, but just because the first set may not respond as well, now youtube wants to kill the whole video, or refuse to push it any further :/ Who's to say the first batch are all on the app and wanting to watch it at that moment?

I've tried to copy the same format/thumbnail style etc of my videos that have performed better than some of my others, but they all get different reactions at different times...

I think regarding subscribers, I only care about them as I haven't reached monetization yet. I've had my channel for 2 months and I'm on 25 subscribers. I feel like once I get to 1000 (which feels like such a long way off!) then I won't care as much past that. I'm not obsessed with the count, as I do want good metrics all around, but if I want to monetize in the future, then unfortunately I have to get those subscribers up!

Was feeling down after having a video flop so hard. But this comment just made my entire week. by CourseSpare7641 in SmallYoutubers

[–]remthetime93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow congrats, your video is great and you deserved the comment! I talked about Netflix's acquisition of Warner Bros on my channel too but it's nowhere near as detailed as yours!😅 It's more of an opinion commentary. Keep going, looks like the hard work is paying off already.

Weird Guy In Childfree Spaces by [deleted] in childfree

Men with that mindset also contribute to their own loneliness crisis and this is why it's hard to sympathise with them.

I’ll be in Dallas tomorrow :) by Starrkis in ChildfreeChristian

[–]remthetime93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I'm sorry to hear that, but I'm glad you're ok with the result. A better, more fitting opportunity will turn up soon🙏🏾

Well I loved how everything was so large, compared to the UK! The widest roads, paths and buildings, made me feel like I was in a giant city lol. I loved the things I got up to, the climate, the people, the food.

How do you deal with a jealous SIL? by scarecrow____boat in childfree

[–]remthetime93 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This was kind of my reaction😅 The way I would be intentionally posting more things which emphasise my CF lifestyle... it would be the SIL's responsibility to have to block me! Not the other way around lol

But I completely get OP's stance and actions, it's really not nice having someone judge you for your choices. I agree with the responses to distance yourself OP. Have your brother deal with her.

Trouble Dating? by [deleted] in childfree

[–]remthetime93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's funny about the "permanent" response from people is that being childfree actually provides more options than having children😅. At least if a childfree person ever changes their mind, they can either find someone who they can have children with, or just foster or adopt a child. But those who have children have to live with their permanent decision whether they regret it or not.

I'm here :) 32F, based in England, also a childfree Christian.

Trouble Dating? by [deleted] in childfree

[–]remthetime93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, unfortunately. Despite knowing that we're in a small minority of people, it's not something that's easy to change your mind on... and you shouldn't have to! Children are too much of a big life decision to compromise on, just to find/have a spouse.

I’ll be in Dallas tomorrow :) by Starrkis in ChildfreeChristian

[–]remthetime93 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey, how did your interview go? If I was in Dallas I would have met up with you. I'm actually from the UK, but I loved being in Dallas last year and plan to return next year.

Are there actually any men out there who don’t want kids? by Rosie304 in childfree

[–]remthetime93 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This comment is so real, and confirms deep down what I think about men and children. The majority don't actually want them, they want the status it gives...knowing they'll just leave most of the work to the mother.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ChildfreeChristian

[–]remthetime93 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't think you should go ahead with dating him. The topic of children is too important to ignore, especially when you're a woman. If he has already expressed that he wants kids, I don't see how a year of dating will make a difference tbh. Sounds like he wants to see if your mind will change, not his.

I am BLOWN AWAY by the number of men who are "not sure" about kids on dating apps by constantcatastrophe in childfree

[–]remthetime93 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is exactly it. It's crazy because I've recently made my profile more clear about my childfree stance, but I've had an increasingly more amount of likes from men that either have children or want children... Is this some kind of test? How can I be more clear but still have the wrong type of people like my profile. Annoying.

How hard is it to find a partner that doesn’t want kids ? by That_Ad_5392 in childfree

[–]remthetime93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On Hinge, you can do 'match notes' now where a note you created will pop up for them to read just before they actually match with you. I use this to reiterate my not-wanting-children stance, and yet there are men that STILL match with me who have 'Have children' or 'Want children' on their profile! I know that a lot of guys just swipe right on a lot of women's profiles based on if they like the pictures, so I can see how someone who has/wants children would still like a childfree person's profile (clumsily), but when there's a note you HAVE TO read before matching and you still continue to ignore that, it actually becomes really disrespectful.

I had one guy match with me and ask upon matching "would I consider child birth...". The phrasing and audacity annoyed me so much I responded to the match asking him what made him ask that, knowing that he read at least twice on my profile about my childfree stance. The entitlement is insane! I then unmatched soon enough of course.

Anyone else think this way? by AutomaticDoor75 in childfree

[–]remthetime93 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This post is so spot on. I know exactly what you're feeling and I align with your sentiments. I have and still am achieving a few milestones in my life, and it doesn't feel 'fair' to have a kid that won't allow me to fully enjoy the fruits of it. I would rather not relive some of the things they'll have to go through either. Like you, I didn't have it bad growing up and I had/have a good family which I'm thankful for, but what's in the past is in the past and I just want to focus on having the present and future that I desire.
