Subscriber Envy

[Squeal Cat]

I go though this now and again sometimes i even unsubscribe from people who get ahead of me in sub count its a really bad habbit of mine

Lol, I think you win in this thread

I sometimes get this in regards to people that started around the same time as me and have 800+ more subs, but it's usually not given more than a passing though. Happy for the people finding more success than I am.

Yes sometimes I think that as well, but then realize alot of these people have been on youtube for a long time. Those subscribers did not come over night and im sure those channels worked ALOT to get to where they are. I think we are on the right path, we just need to keep pushing and we'll get there

I get really jealous at the people who get 100k subs in a few months, like Muselk (though his content is amazing). But usually, the big YouTubers got where there because the amount of work they put in, and/or because they've been on the platform longer, so I don't get that disappointed =P

To be completely honest, sometimes I do, but I always think to myself "They started one day with absolutely 0subs" and that I´m barely starting on youtube and growth takes time.

I don't necessarily get jealous. More inspired. Most of the big channels put out really great content and high quality videos. Gives me something to shoot for. I view YouTube as the ultimate democracy. The YouTube algorithm gives people what they want. Channels with a lot of subscribers and views have put out content people want to see.

Lol, ok maybe just a little jealous

Hahahah, I do that too sometimes.
Though I still like the creators and I'm happy that they got so big

I think this is a part of the youtube world and it's something that has to be accepted somewhat.

I'm very much like that. It seems that I'm always the worst at everything I do. Or even if I'm the best, I don't get credit for it and somebody less talented/dedicated gets more recognition than me.... this trend has carried over to YouTube, I feel like. It's really upsetting sometimes but I try not to think about it.

Sort of. I have a very low subscriber count but maybe that's because I work full time so haven't been putting the work in that it needs. I'm trying to change and upload more content more regularly so hopefully that will improve things!
