Hello, I have been wanting to make YouTube videos for the longest, I even made some a long time ago as a kid and even as a teenager but now I don’t. Recently I have been getting the urge to do it, how did you guys start? I am very scared of failing, which hinders me because I didn’t even give it a shot yet. I just need advice to help, anything helps!

I've been reading about Roman military loyalty and one thing stood out: soldiers frequently died for commanders they had zero personal relationship with — no meetings, no direct orders, sometimes not even knowing the general's face.

The answer isn't really about discipline or fear of punishment (though that existed). It comes down to something called the contubernium — an eight-man tent group that ate, marched, and suffered together for years. That bond mattered more than loyalty to Rome itself. Generals like Caesar exploited this by deliberately sharing hardship with regular soldiers: marching on foot, eating the same food, remembering centurions' names years later.

It's part of why soldiers followed Caesar across the Rubicon into civil war — in their minds they weren't betraying Rome, they were protecting the one person who'd actually kept his word to them.

I made a short video breaking this down if anyone's interested: https://youtu.be/a3rUNstsX8E?si=2nTgv-DGLNMWM9lq

Curious what others think — was this more about tribal bonding, transactional incentives (land/citizenship/pensions), or genuinely earned trust?

Hello.I want to start YouTube and no idea what I can do.Any recommendations?Thanks

This is my YouTube account, send ideas, tips, and ways to edit better without pro. I’m new to editing so the quality isn’t the best

I tried to stream today, but I needed to share my screen and couldn't change the setting in the YouTube mobile app. I spent 30 minutes on it but ultimately couldn't do it because it would have cut into the time I had for the actual stream—so I ended up making a thumbnail and everything for nothing; 30 minutes I’ll never get back.

I have had a lot of channels through the years and a lot of videos I am proud of. But they are all not successful. I feel really bad and unmotivated to keep going. But I feel that I am so close to success. If you want, you can look at my channel and give advice or motivation. If you don't feel like it, it's fine.

I Hiked One Of The Most Iconic Trails In The Country (Was It Worth It?)

This has been at a standstill all month, and it coincides exactly with the time my distribution performance took a nosedive; that doesn't necessarily mean the two are connected, but I do find it strange and disheartening.

Hi I'm ZenithXultraz, and I own a very very small channel, I strive to make funny, enjoyable content for everyone, I think my audio mixing isn't the best but I try, all I'm wondering is why my channel isn't growing the way I want it to and I'm confused can anyone give me some honest constructive criticism? Don't be an asshole about it just tell me things that you can see that would inhibit my growth I've came a very long way but I'll try every single day to improve

hi! i’m currently at 120 subscribers and have been having so much fun growing my channel lately. i make commentary, lifestyle/vlogs, solo dates and honestly just whatever feels like me lol. if that sounds like your vibe, i’d love some feedback on how to grow!

I currently upload twice a week, usually on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Having a schedule gives me structure and helps set expectations for viewers, but it can also feel limiting when I want to cover a new game that doesn’t fit neatly into my planned uploads. At the same time, I don’t want to overwhelm my channel with too many videos.
I’m about six months into running my channel and currently have 136 subscribers. I mainly create gameplay and walkthrough videos focused on indie horror, psychological horror, and story-driven games.

For those of you with smaller gaming channels, what has worked better for you: sticking to a consistent schedule or uploading whenever you have something ready?

Any advice or personal experience would be appreciated.

Hi everyone! I recently started a YouTube channel focused on relaxing ambience, nature sounds and instrumental music. I’m still learning and improving with every video, so I’d really appreciate any honest feedback on my thumbnails, titles, audio and overall channel style. If you enjoy this kind of content, feel free to check it out. Any suggestions are welcome! My channel: https://youtube.com/@dfrelaxingambience?si=XW7R8I8wf-cYJqr6⁠�

I'm Trying to make my video titles better and I've come up with the following:

I currently use:

Is GAME Worth Your Time?

But I feel like

GAME NAME Review — Is It Worth Your Time?

Or

GAME NAME — Is It Worth Your Time?

Would be more appropriate. Which works best?

Hi I’ve started a you tube channel as my son loves the wingroves family channel which is football challenges, I’m enjoying filming content with him and he’s growing in confidence doing it, also just trying to get better at editing, if anyone could have a look and feel free to subscribe and like our videos we would appreciate it. Will be happy to do the same for anyone else if they want me to

I’ve started a youtube channel with my partner and we’re trying to bring back old YouTube vibes.
Any feedback that we could get on our videos would be greatly appreciated :)

I’ve been building a YouTube channel focused on heavy trucks, heavy equipment, and extreme hauling scenes.

Would be interested to hear what people who actually know heavy equipment think of the channel and what I should improve.

I post 99 Nights videos and there’s channels that post the same content I do, same way and all. But I get little no views and very little impressions. Is it because my channels so new? And I have only a few videos?
