I was messaged on instagram by another youtuber

Not gonna bother. Unless it's a collab.

Yeah. If they ask me to subscribe then I'll ignore it. But they just ask me for feedback then I'll gladly give it to them.

I tend to ignore requests like this when they come through my channel, or through the comments on my videos. I like to think of the comments section as a place to comment on the video, to engage with the creator and the viewers. I always read comments on other people's videos and engage in conversation that was led from their comment.

I don't mind doing this if it's over a creator's forum like this one, because we're all on YTTalk to grow, learn and be inspired by other creators and share experiences.

I get the usual "Wow your channel is so good, please subscribe to mine" super generic message and I check their channel out, but if it's not what I like to subscribe to, I don't.[DOUBLEPOST=1484695829,1484695765][/DOUBLEPOST]

Yeah, this forum is intended to do that, it's fine if the message comes from here. But when it comes from other sources, not intended to engage like that, it gets a little awkward.
