It's usually just the opposite, unless your therapist/counselor is shit.

Its funny, more YouTubers are jumping on the paywall trend. It’s crazy to do it now of all times when ppl are overstretched in what they subscribed to. I rather subbed to HBO Max, Hulu and Disney instead.
This move to paywall is absurd.
This move to paywall is absurd.
People are going the paywall route exactly because of those services.
It's obvious you can't rely on advertisers for revenue, especially if you're making lgbt content, anx everyone is fed up with ads, so many are more than willing to pay a monthly fee if it means watching the thing they want without ads or the censorship that comes with them
YouTubers gotta eat like the rest of us. Toss them a couple bucks.
YouTube also changed the algorithm and everyone views are down. Some of these YouTubers like Mark should have diversified their income 3 years ago instead of putting all their eggs in one basket. Now they are scrambling at the last minute with move to paywall. Most of their audience isn’t even interesTed anymore.
I would if what they are producing was of quality.YouTubers gotta eat like the rest of us. Toss them a couple bucks.
social media has always screwed over lgbt content creators. a few years ago, people found out that when youtube's family mode is enable, i.e. parental control, lgbt youtuber disappear from the platform. you couldn't search for them, if you went directly to their channels, no videos would show. this was something that showed at the bottom of the page whether it was enabled or not, but that was a previous layout, idek where to find that setting now.
lgbt people on tik tok are also always complaining that their videos will be taken down for breaking guidelines when it was just a video discussing an lgbt issue, when straight people will be borderline naked, showing the outline of their dicks and with their tits almost out, and their videos stay up.
but you are right that he fucked up with putting all his eggs in one basket. i guess he technically tried branching out, by doing photography/filmography on the side. but that always looks more like a hobby, not a second job. most youtubers have something else in the background making them money, usually some company they created or joined in, where they're part of the board and make a fuckton of passive income despite doing absolutely nothing and having 0 knowledge on how to run a business, they just delegate that work to someone else.
mark however, focused too much on just youtube, with a barely noticeable focus on photography, so now he's gonna struggle. if he's that passionate about photography/filmography, he could've opened a studio or something, now he'd be making money off the people who work there, while he's making random vlogs about nothing

![cartoonguy.jpg]( "cartoonguy.jpg")
his body is insaneeeeeee his face is too baby face for me but i have a feeling if i met him person i would be head over heels in love.... he seems so gentle and sweet but also masc, but not in a toxic way
hes so perfect - i hope he finds someone who loves him equally. i feel like he was always more into ethan than ethan was into him, which is crazy because mark was wayyyyyy out of ethans league in my humble opinion

It’s nice seeing Mark commune in the woods with the bears, maybe they'll loosen him up a bit.

LGBTQ+ content on YouTube bores me. Feel free to recommend some gay YouTubers to me who are fun to watch and don’t mention being gay every two seconds, the struggles of being gay every two seconds, and ones who aren’t porn stars. I started watching YouTube regularly in 2014 - as in my favorites became weekly must watch viewing. Over the years it’s helped tremendously with depression and anxiety, but I feel like it’s losing some of its joy. It’s almost as if everyone I once loved has quit doing YouTube altogether or is going through the motions of continuing to do it. I know it’s sad, and it’s been such a long time since this has happened, but I love finding a new YouTuber I love and binging all of their content. Any YouTubers you recommend?
PS: I wouldn’t mind paying to watch certain YouTubers, but it would never be Mark. Sorry, but he’s just too boring. However, watching some of the hot guys from the Amp squad level up their antics to be more like Jackass - something more daring and shocking and adult - I would pay for that. It doesn’t need to change 100%, but they could stop bleeping curse words and censoring butt shots and I’d definitely pay for that. It’s fun.

i guess "andrew lowe" and "chris klemens" kinda fit the are lgbt but don't make their content all about it.
"swell entertainment" also fits into that category, as her content is mostly reviewing and commenting on things, and her being bisexual is something she only mentions in passing in rare occasion.
there's also "tasting history with max miller", who is gay, but his videos are about cooking/baking/drinking thinks from history, so like, recreating what ancient roman soldiers would eat back then. he only really mentions his sexuality if he happens to bring up his husband in conversation.
oh and there's also "j.j mccullough", who mostly talks about pop culture phenomenons and canadian culture. he's gay but his content isn't about lgbt related stuff, and like swell entertainment, only mentions it in passing

Does that person qualify as a "youtuber" if their videos get such low views? at that point you're just someone who uploads.

Sweet! I’ll definitely check out all those people. I’m certainly not anti LGBTQ, but it’s not my whole life, you know? Some people act like they’re in a LGBTQ cult. It’s kinda odd to me. It’s literally like a new religion even though they all claim to dislike religion. LGBTQ going to chick-fil-a is like a Christian going to Hot Topic. It’s just so frowned upon and blasphemous.

Mark highlights his tiddies in the thumbnail of his latest video about going to the lake house with his family. He markets his Patreon, which I’m guessing now all we will get going forward on YouTube is b-roll. In the comments someone asked him to do a reaction video to Heartstoppers, saying that growing up Mark & Ethan were their Heartstoppers, it made me throw up a little in my mouth.
That’s only way he can get views. Also unless he is being more risqué and shirtless on his Patreon, that will not entice majority of ppl who follow him c of his body and muscles. Its tough out of these YouTube streets. Also since he is no longer a twink in his 20s, a lot of the gays have moved to younger hotter guys. The market is saturated now. Inflation is high. There is so much good free content produced by other gays. I like the homesteading stuff by other content creators now Like PJ&T.
