week in the life of a software engineer | what I'm working on, life by the beach | LA diaries 💌

[@charmaine__]

I think there is also an audience who likes both lifestyle and tech contents, like myself, but I'm not sure how many of us are out there. I love how you can combine them, but a separate tech channel would be great as well! ❤️ PS. I'm actually inspired by your contents and also considering creating a lifestyle + tech channel, but for my country, sometime in the future!

[@marselaaa]

aww that's amazing!! You should totally start your own channel -- building an online community a very rewarding experience!! My vlogs will always include a little bit of tech, so I'm really glad you like that! Thank you for the feedback 🤍

[@Seolhwaneul]

I’m one of those who like both lifestyle and tech content too! I discovered her bc of her vlogs and have been enjoying them a lot ❤

[@veronicamayer5661]

Yes to the tech content and also yes to your experiences on low dopamine! Would love the see both. I really enjoy all of your content and you're a huge inspiration 🧡

[@marselaaa]

aw thank you veronica!! Appreciate the feedback 🤍

[@colleenvereschagin9747]

I am here for the combined content, I like the channel just how it is. A lot of that is just from you being you though so whatever direction you take your content will work out regardless.

[@ralph_d_youtuber8298]

I would love a separate tech channel

[@marselaaa]

yay! Thanks for the feedback!!

[@kaaye]

Yesss to more tech content! Your channel blending a bit of both has been so refreshing to watch, would love to see more! 💓

[@delfixx]

i loove the way you edit your vlogs, so cozy and aesthetic… it gives me the best vibes :) and yes to the tech content! i think it’d be really cool for you to have a separate channel and i would 100% watch it 🤎

[@marselaaa]

aw thank you!! 🤍🤍🤍 appreciate the feedback!!

[@jielsnook94]

Yes on the Tech content please.. I enjoy watching your vlogs/lifestyle content too, and always looking forward to your tech content since it motivates me so much.. ❤❤

[@marselaaa]

yay thank you!! I appreciate your feedback!

[@giandie]

i think you should do what makes sense for you from a business standpoint. if there is an issue with audience retention / interest when you’re switching between lifestyle and tech content but you plan on making both and you want to also continue to grow your audience, then it makes sense to separate the two.

[@marselaaa]

yeah that's exactly what I noticed when I was making both type of content -- some comment wanting more vlogs, and others comment wanting more just tech. And it hurts video performance when your audience is split like that. Not an expert though and could be other factors too, just what I've noticed!

[@carlaaxume4050]

Love the videos Marsela! Whether tech or life vlogs... I will watch. They are so calming and inspiring. Much love your way 💮

[@megangarner2484]

Yes to another coding channel! That's how I first found you. But I really love your life content too. Do whatever you feel like the right move is!

[@gbelyd7874]

yeeess! same here!

[@marselaaa]

aw thank you!! I appreciate the feedback!! 🤍

[@mrquiroz1095]

I had to stop the video to make sure you were using Marie Sharp's sauce. The sauce is sooo good. As a Belizean, it's a must-have sauce in the house lol. I enjoy both contents., and keeping them separate is a good idea because both bring different audiences who might only want to watch one or the other, or bring one viewer to the other. Wish you the best of luck!!!

[@paulaganbi5236]

Pleaseeee would love the idea of a separate YT channel with coding / tech stuff, if it’s not too stressful for you. However the way you integrate your software engineering work with your lifestyle content is already top notch. So keeping it this way is equally a great idea.

[@marselaaa]

Yes! Planning to keep my vlogs the same but just deliver more tech content on a separate channel! Thank you for your feedback!!

[@AlfredGuimaz]

Do what you enjoy we just love how you make your videos

[@marselaaa]

appreciate that 🥲

[@_m.e.g.a.n_]

Yes yes! Tech channel! I found you almost a year ago when I was debating going into webdev. 6 months later I quit my job in medical & have been pursuing ever since! Slowly but still moving forward and learning!

[@marselaaa]

wow that's amazing!! Thank you for sharing that! 🤍

[@autismandndadvocacyassocia9476]

I personally like both of your lifestyle and tech content

[@marselaaa]

thank you! appreciate that!

[@cieraking8861]

no way! the greenish blue ford bronco is my dream car lol

[@bookscoffee111]

If that means more tech talk, then yes , and we still watch vlogs too, vlogs are the thing that everyone watches no matter what ;)

[@marselaaa]

yay, thank you for your feedback!!

[@Lucky__penny]

Yes please make another tech channel, and could you also do a video on how you edit your vlogs? Love your content 🫶🏻

[@lialalezama443]

i would love to see you do a coding channel! i subscribed because you are one of the few female software engineering youtubers i found on here, but you also balance lifestyle and wellness content into your videos which i rlly enjoy. however a coding channel would be amazing!! your tech content inspires me so much! :)

[@marselaaa]

aw thank you 🤍🤍 that's exactly what I'm going for, that's so nice to hear!! Thank you for your feedback!!

[@eduardocontreras9833]

Hi Marsela I enjoy your videos alot of the week in your life one thing I think you could do would be a vlog about software engineering content like you mentioned in your video code with me possibly separate from the day or week in the life you upload in youtube.

[@gbelyd7874]

I giggled when you said pottery has taught you a lot of patience being a software engineer lol.

[@marselaaa]

haha that's true! But lemme tell ya, the patience required for pottery is on another level

[@alvaroleiva4994]

Yesss Marsela tech please, I would keep watching both channels tho but a more tech related secondary channel will be awesome

[@marselaaa]

yay! Thank you for your feedback!!

[@gogl92]

I like your Littsburgh hoodie :)

[@baddriversofrva]

yes. please make a second marsela tech or codes channel. i followed you because you were in tech and I'm studying to become a back end dev

[@AM-ps7kq]

Thanks for the Pottery video☺️...love the aesthetics...

[@marselaaa]

yay! It's my favorite part of the day :)

[@ricknotd1cc]

I love your channel. I want to make software engineering vlogs like you. One question? Why don't you upload in 4k? Even if you don't record in 4k the higher bitrate of 4k uploads would make your vlogs look a lot sharper!

[@marselaaa]

that's a good point! Honestly - no real reason, I'll look into it!

[@ricknotd1cc]

@@marselaaa sweet! I think you will definitely appreciate the difference!

[@jeannettepacheco8784]

Definitely a yes to the tech/ coding content! I am pursuing a career in coding so any content will be super helpful!! 🤍

[@dassalotbro4179]

I don't mind both contents here, I personally love both

[@marselaaa]

good to know, thank you!!

[@Broxx909]

I'm interested in both content. Some things to keep in mind is how the KZbin algorithm might work with having your content all in one channel versus split, which I don't know lol but I'd imagine consistency of video publications, views across videos etc are metrics that would change. I'm sure you're probably already thinking of these things too, lots to consider!

[@Broxx909]

Low key ask ChatGPT for advice too lol 😆

[@heatherfranco5810]

MarselaCodes would be a good second channel. I would watch both but be more drawn to the tech one due to my profession.

[@marselaaa]

yay! Thank you! I appreciate the feedback!

[@amrsoliman2681]

marsela coes 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

[@cristhiamtovar9003]

What a nice idea, you probably could make some tutorials that I'd love to see

[@sohinidhar5612]

Absolutely please create a tech or coding channel 😊

[@MarivoneAraujo]

This song: "Um banguelo sorrindo de alegria" means “an edentulous smiling of happiness" at 4:34. I feel so happy when I listen to brazilian songs in your videos (thank you) but... This one was made by some troll.

[@marselaaa]

hahaha 😂😂 that's too funny! I love her voice but I don't speak Portuguese! She got me good! haha The song is called Doce Bahia by Clara Mendes :)

[@MarivoneAraujo]

@@marselaaa Hauahaua It’s just a song about nice, beautiful things, Simple things… Unfortunately the part you got was about someone without teeth! Hehehe

[@JeyJhey]

Assistindo o video pelo estilo de vida e para aprender mais da pronuncia e do NADA surge uma Bossa Brasileira de fundo. rs . Watching the video for lifestyle and to improve my pronunciation and then out of nowhere the bossa nova starts playing.

[@marselaaa]

I love Bossa Nova! Such a good vibe!

[@goncalopinto5947]

Hi Marsela, personally I love all the content that you bring to the channel, but if you create a second one channel it will be cool. I can not wait for the tech content.

[@marselaaa]

thank you!! I appreciate the feedback!

[@samara_souza]

Looks like you’re using GitLab?

[@marselaaa]

I'm using GitHub!

[@bittertea]

I think a coding section channel would be nice.

[@marselaaa]

nice! thank you :)
