Why Do You Youtube?

I use youtube as a library of videos that i want

I've enjoyed watching YouTube, gaming videos primarily, for a few years now and had always thought of trying to make a few videos. I always held off because I'm far from a pro gamer so never felt like my videos would be interesting or that people would care what I had to say. However, I had a friend prompt me to create a video discussing what I look for during matches and such. I made the video, realized I enjoyed the process and have now made close to 20 videos though my earlier work is horrid and will remain unlisted and only viewed by my friend.

Making YouTube videos defiantly has its ups and downs. You can go from feeling unbeatable to near quitting so fast. Sometimes it takes a bit to stay motivated. So what motivates you to continue making content?

Honestly, just when people like and comment on my video, letting me know they've enjoyed it and/or that it made them laugh.

Well, I've always loved to create and I felt like, since I was a kid, that I wanted to make people happy with what I make and do. An entertainer of sorts? I guess that's what keeps me motivated. The idea that, maybe one day, I can make those people laugh or smile, or get inspired by my art and my stories and my funny quirks. I'm pretty introverted in meatspace, so doing this all online takes away the anxiety.

Sometimes just being bored and wanting to do something is my biggest motivator. Aside from that, making stuff is something I enjoy and when I lose motivation I change what I'm doing slightly to make it fun again.

@Crum - I've merged your thread with the big pinned thread at the top of the forum as it's essentially the same question.

Making people happy

I do it as a hobby. It's something I do for fun and could careless about the views I get. Yeah I would like more views but in the end it doesn't matter to me because I'm never going to make a career out of it.
I also loved making random videos on my computer of me playing games and I just thought I should share them with the world.

Why we decided to make a channel? Well, because we want to share our ideas, opinions with world and also have fun, and youtube is the best way.
