@neauoire Most of the sailing youtuber channels look pretty desperate these days.

They're infested with LOOK at our MISLEADING titles, fake stills, spamming adverts inside the content and increasingly resorting to T&A (tits and arses) or just entire videos that are glowing reviews of sponsored gear. And posting obvious placeholder content when there's nothing really to tell.

Probably too much competition.

@yngmar yeah, I've completely stopped paying attention to these channels, even a while back, the video titles were always lies.

The whole sector ate itself up. It sounds awful trying to make a living off these platforms

@neauoire @yngmar I don't think making a living directly of YT is sustainable any more (and risks burnout or worse) - the channels / videos I do watch (at least tech and motoring related) are increasingly from those who have another secure job (such as working in a garage) or are older and retired so they don't need to do the constant American style hustle/clickbait stuff which gets grating to watch after a while..
