Why Going Viral Wasn't The Breakthrough I Expected

Definitely fun getting to go through my old content tho!

I really like the honesty here, very nice thanks mate.

Just wanna say, your new content brought you to me and I subscribed bc of it. Iirc it was the asian James Bond that the algorithm recommended and despite not playing any games, I actually really enjoy skits about them so you'll definitely hit the target audience eventually like you did with me 😊 it might be a little disappointing seeing similar creators like Silvia or Jackson Field gain traction immediately but others like Viva la dirt league took over a decade before they blew. Confident you'll get there and I'm glad to say I'm an earlier fan! Also, as an asexual, knowing you did boyfriend content sends me to our new moon 😂 definitely prefer your newer stuff but I can't unsee it now. Thanks for taking the risk to change gears. Wishing you all the best!

James! I'll be honest I haven't seen your videos in a while and im glad you've got your passion again for what you want to do. Also I love the youtube set up. It suits you well my friend! - Bri

Thanks! Definitely been a handful of people who said they haven’t seen my videos in a while, I think because the algorithms weren’t showing them because I’ve been here🥲

[@bris_journey]

@@jamesthetang yeah. I agree with you there. I've missed you a lot, I'm glad to sad you found a new home for a bit on KZbin tho, can't wait to see what type of videos you create :)

So I don’t know what it says about me as a person that I was the audience for the emotional boyfriend, the smiling guy and the new video game content 😂
