it's not fun anymore

[@WalfArchives]

things i forgot to/didn't mention: • forgot to publish the playlist whoops, should be up now • still like memes, just not making them like this, might make some here and there given the right circumstance but they'll be pretty scarce • gonna see how things go for a few months, could end up slowing things down a lot • your comments really do mean a lot, reminds me of why i continued doing this. thank you.

Video essays are cool. I think that’s a good way to go.

[@SamiTheAnxiousBean]

no need to apolgize, there's nothing wrong with getting tired of your own content and wanting to branch out or even wanting to take a break

[@ShwappaJ]

Hello Sami, I see you like Walf the Weme Waster as well

[@SamiTheAnxiousBean]

@@ShwappaJ i like Walf in general, theyre cool :3

[@GGTM70]

You were never just a meme channel you’re a talented animator and editor Have fun with this channel you are you and walf can be whatever you have fun with

[@gilbertosantos2806]

No shame for feeling burnout on something you once liked, it's okay.

[@teforilais8834]

Pasa grana cara

[@ViveeFox]

No shame in changing paths. I'm looking forward to seeing what you make next!

[@VoidedEnd]

Well i gotta say im proud of you for noticing your lack in participation in meme stuff and the chaotic approach youve given to your channel, and that you wanna make something that fits your own interests as well as your communities.. It takes guts to say "this isnt going anywhere" or "i dont wanna do this anymore" and even more to make that change, so thats really good on you walf.. Id say for any advice just dont worry about those who leave for your change and those who stay, as long as you stay on what YOU ultimately want, whether it be long term commentary or art/animations, as long as you keep that topic going, your community will grow and you will shine. Dependent on what you have in store, i personally might stay, i might not, but its always better to think about who youve influenced rather than how many you could or can. Love your stuff man and i wish the best for ya, even if im not around for it.. Keep that head up regardless homie.. You got it.. -a fellow sub, Neo

[@Random_Furryyy]

Hey man do what ever you want it’s your channel if you quit that’s fine if you want gaming videos that’s fine if you want to do IRL vids do what ever you want

[@The_Big_Cheese6665]

Bro the scps are on ur side

[@Danominator]

I just want you to know that historically speaking, it is very likely that you will lose follower and viewership over this change for a bit. But don't be afraid of that! This is your place to express yourself so i hope you have fun with your transition into whatever kind of video works for you. The people who like what you decide to go with will definitely stick around. :)

[@pikariocraftf2802]

Yeah, changing content will likely lose some viewers, but honestly? Its probably worth it to enjoy your own content again. The advice I've heard many times, Put your own things first. Though there is a channel that.. does not follow the rule of losing followers at all... Jan Misali seems to just.. well.. his channel appeals to Jan Misali. Put your own fun first, viewer count second.

[@retro4244]

No matter what direction you take the channel I will still tune in from time to time :3

[@revolutionaryfrog157]

I have never watched a single video of this person, but i'm here for you

[@JohnVance]

My brother in christ, do whatever makes you happy, that's what's gonna make me happy :)

[@Commentingstuff]

I’m sorry you feel that way, take as long as you need if you need a break

[@keithmoon3190]

Graywalf, it has been a pleasure being with you. Your freddie mercury series also seem to pass along with you, and I enjoyed some of your other memes as well including your grubhub characters ranked. Good luck out there comrade.

[@BreakingOmen]

You do you bro, whatever you do I’ll support you no matter what

[@blulynx2619]

I'm really excited to see what's in store, man! My friends and I enjoy your content for your editing and your overall vibe, and all that stuff persists no matter what you're making. Go and create!

[@iciajay6891]

You brought so much joy. Sometimes it's just time to move on. As artist, your taste change. I go through that all the time. I will always have the Freddie vids you made. Which I always watch when I am having a bad ptsd day. So thank you friend. We all apriciate what you have done.

[@lewisbaitup6352]

Meme channel to video essayist channel pipeline. Seriously tho im looking forward to the next video seems like something up my alley.

[@lamarr7334]

Dude, I sub to this channel not 'cause of memes, but 'cause I like your creativity

[@silvermoon442]

While I don’t consistently watch your stuff, I definitely feel the frustration you’re talking about. As an artist, I deal with a different struggle with the algorithm, but I struggle all the same. I’ve basically stopped posting when I try to focus on other issues on my life, knowing that my Etsy and my social media accounts will be there when I’m ready to go back to them.

[@Primilex]

Understandable. If it helps, this is what I do when making art. I have to do multiple types, rarely do I stick to one type, all because I don't wanna burnout. Do whatever you need to do if it means your mental heath is improving.

[@hypermaeonyx4969]

I honestly get kinda sick when a channel just has one gimmick. So unless they do a really good job at that gimmick, I generally just ignore them and only watch them every now and then. So branching out into doing new things is quite a good idea

[@ddddddddddd5354]

Sounds like you might turn into someone like Shaffrillas. Starting out with more "memey" content and changing to more complex videoessays. Whatever you do, dont forget to do it because it brings you joy, dont slave yourself away for some algorythm.

[@TaintedSapling]

Finally Walf doing something that makes Walf happy

[@pdtrx4900]

Do what ever feels right, it's your life that your living. Even if you choose to quit it's understandable.

[@Wolfey11804]

I’ve been watching YT for a looong time now, and I’ve seen change, some good, some bad, I’ve seen new channels pop-up, classics go down, but most of all, growth. It’s natural to wanna branch out and leave some of the things in past behind, expand to newer ideas, and I say go for it. Follow what you most want to do, and go for it. Your interests change, and that’s alright. I’ll always have my index ready for anything you decide to make!

[@seanoliver2028]

Man I love your vibes no matter the content, whatever keeps you going is best!

[@RyanGreenBlue]

i absolutely loved your deltarune cover, your playing is really nice!

[@robin7433]

That sounds like a great video topic! Excited to see it! (:

[@FrenchRarity]

That's very much understandable. Well I hope things go well for you! You don't know until you try!

[@actualtrashpile]

I am SO down for Video Essay Walf. Hand it over.

[@dingledongus]

I like your ideas for where you want to go with your channel! I'll gladly continue watching.

[@pulgmaz4564]

You're channel always seemed like more than just "memes" This channel has a lot of potential, and I'm happy you're noticin that (I think) Take your time ane enjoy dude

[@masterjayden1304]

It is fine to feel burnout. Take your time Graywalf and do whatever you want with your great channel.

[@PulchritudinousMinx]

No need to apologize! It's completely normal and okay to get burnt out and such, you can do whatever you want to/with your channel since it is YOUR channel of course. I'm looking forward to the "video essay" type of videos if you will do those! (Sorry if there's any typos or grammar mistakes, English isn't my first language.)

[@supercalifragilisticexpial2703]

There's nothing wrong with wanting to change up what you're doing! I'm quite sure that your supporters and fans will continue to support whatever you'll do in the future!

[@YELAWOLF240]

Finally greywalf is gonna realize that he needs to prioritize his enjoyment of content creation over numbers. Numbers are for accountants and sociopaths not creative liberty. Props sir.

[@SaucyBoy]

you have your own identity as graywalf, and i'm here for that :) i added your filler video music to my playlist btw

[@virtuallyreal3055]

I'll watch just for the animation, it looks great! Also, knowing your creativity from the memes, I can't wait to see what you make.

[@Hider_2232]

It’s okay, i like many will still be here

[@ogremation3766]

I’ll keep following your videos no matter what your doing

[@tobinatort800]

I’m definitely looking forward on what’s to come Stay awesome

[@nezalthebirb338]

i will absolutely keep supporting you channel no matter what you decide to do with it

[@elecmagpulse7385]

Don’t sweat it, Walf. The best content comes when the creator enjoys creating it. No matter what you do from here, as long as you enjoy it, then that’s what really matters.

[@jpprobably]

hi graywalf, I always think you're very underrated be it a meme channel or not and I hope nothing but the best for your newfound pursuit of content creation

[@nate5490]

Man i just love the channel. Whatever you do with it, ill be here

[@the.corvidian]

I've only ever watched one of your videos, apparently, so I'm ready to form a new impression! I'll sub :) I love animation and discussions on niche subjects

[@lemonadesnake]

So first Boshi and now you, I feel like this will begin to be a trend with a lot of meme channels. I’m very supportive of the people who feel bored or annoyed with their content and I hope you all can find something new that you want to make. ❤

[@mostlikelysmarterthanyou5031]

I wouldn't really mind the change that much, since I typically enjoy more long-form content and whatnot. Sadly I probably won't be able to attend the streams cause for whatever reason I can watch youtube streams just fine but when i try to watch twitch i spend more time watching it load than actually watching. Hope the transition of content goes well and smoothly.

[@kilometreman]

Props to you! Please do whatever you enjoy, wishing you well, and also, I just saw that Shrek video. In my opinion you are a meme grandmaster whatever you produce from now, EEEEEEh it was a hoot.

[@Polycomical]

Gutted you're not enjoying content work at the moment. I went through a similar thing a few years ago. I took a break, talked to some folks and then did a relaunch. In the long term I think it did some good. Don't be afraid to give yourself a breather and take a little time out to work out how you want to go from here. *Wellwish jig*

[@HaxxorElite]

You can do whatever you want! Theres no need to force yourself to make things you dont enjoy making anymore!. I love Walf uwu

[@ktoo303]

unrelated but why this video really comforted me, as when you open youtube you dont expect real videos and a creator actually talking to you, idk its really strangely comforting also maybe because he has a nice voice

[@tomkrawec]

I'm excited to see where you go next!

[@hibuddy1473]

I'm going to continue following you and having the bell on, what ever direction you decide to do i will still watch it, do something you enjoy and are proud of!

[@deneb_tm]

props to you for deciding to do this, it'd be all too easy to just disappear instead might be worth mentioning, there's a video essay by Eyepatch Wolf that talks about just this sort of burnout among other things, getting stuck in a particular niche, too caught up in metrics etc, it's really right in line with what you're talking about either way, whatever do with your channel in the future, I'm looking forward to it

[@cosmicrobus7679]

I like the new direction the channel is going in! Hope the future is bright for you!

[@vystorm]

I gotta be honest, I'm subbed to you but I don't remember why 😅 I don't really remember you. But this makes me want to follow you more closely, I like what I'm hearing! You may lose some people, but in the end you'll also gain new people like me! Also yeah, that wolf is fucking adorable, definitely use if you feel inclined!

[@vystorm]

Bonus content (ramble): Mayhaps it's something like restarting one of those mobile games, yknow the ones, the prestige points and all that. To a point you start over a bit, cuz new content might take being Found by a new audience, but you get to keep all the knowledge you've gained and also because you have thousands of subs that acts as sorta a huge springboard! It's like if you cleaned out your house but also got a new sofa that was just so comfy once you were done! Idk, maybe I'm just tripping…

[@oscarvee8648]

It takes a lot of strength and bravery to try something like this, mad respect, genuinely :)

[@Eon_N]

As long as you're doing things that make *you* happy, you'll get a gradual natural attraction of people that just like what you do! Thanks for doing what you love!

[@theofficialchannelofoffici7962]

I like your wolf character alot, i would continue to consume your content whether you continue with memes, or switch completely to a new genre of videos if you use have that guy in the corner or something. Its very cute 🥰

[@joachimsrensen7666]

Take care of yourself man! Do what you want, not what you pressured to do. Love your stuff!

[@1234bobfox]

It's alright, you should be able to enjoy what you do. What you do going forward doesn't take away the good times we've had in the past. Thanks for the fun times 👌

[@otherwasp]

I hope changing things up helps you out with finding enjoyment in creating stuff again, you make some pretty great stuff

[@bruh16204]

Do whatever u want as long as you have fun.

[@Crox101]

This reminds me of what Bosh went through

[@ampullaria4514]

I’m over with memes as well, I used to see hours of them and now just one and I get a head ache.

[@skywoofyt5375]

I'm hyped for what Walf will do next tbh

[@G.A.N.]

goodluck have fun!

[@haylenstudiosinc.2007]

I wish you the best with your channels future and can’t wait to see the content.

[@josephmiller9180]

I've never seen your channel before (that I know of) and got here from the Shrek E vid. I love love love this video. I hope that you find "success" however you define it.

[@PeaceOnEarth013]

Okay. I'm finally subscribing to you bc you deserve support in a transition period, a time where you're likely to lose subs, because I love what you've made and look forward to what you will make ^_^

[@PeterPeter20]

Good luck with all of this shift! This is the first video of yours that I'm watching, algorithym is kinda weird lol I like memes too and really wanted to post all of my videos ideas but it's just too much videos so I ended up just posting dead memes, but I don't care too much, I like rewatching past memes Edit: DUDE I WAS LOOKING THROUGH YOUR CHANNEL AND THE FIRST VIDEO I WATCHED WAS THE SHREK MOVIE BUT ONLY WHEN LORD FARQARD or whatever the heck is his name SAYING E, LIKE DUDE, THAT WAS A LONG TIME AGO WOW I didn't even remembered

[@TwoToRule]

Honestly as long as you keep the wolf I'm happy lol But seriously, I do like the plan you have. I've thought about making my own videos similar to what you're thinking of, so I'll happily stay.

[@fur_avery]

Wishing you the best, I still remember how I subscribed for freddie mercury memes but i am for sure going to stay to see your new content

[@BurnerWah]

Honestly I'm really excited to see what you're making next

add a heart in the middle of that guy and you’ve got walf. Even if the channel will change we’ll still watch all we can

[@Blue-Delta0117]

I am glad you are still here. I would like to watch your videos man, whatever types of videos

[@cheesyAardvark]

You...... I know you, every time... all of the highest quality shitposts on youtube... "duck", "war, star, DUWAHHHH" and many others, all throughout the years, it's all been you... I never realized, and now, I finally found you, and I see that you are tired of the memes. Don't worry, you can do what you want. I'm happy I finally found the source of all this high-quality stuff. Personally, as long as your future videos share this quality and effort, I will watch whatever you make.

[@lajenehuen260]

You can do whatever you want, little wolf :3

[@CerberusConstellation]

Just try and make yourself happy, that's what we care about the most.

just stumbled upon your channel but it makes me really happy you're doing what's good for you 😍😻😘🥰😃💅

[@stuff31]

Do whatever you want to do, as you said it's more important to have fun than make numbers go up.

Use your audience to your advantage! The potential you have for making content is limitless and you already have a number of people who will continue to support you! Can’t wait for the future!!

[@LisaMiza]

Sounds like a plan, go for it! :3
