It is hard to hobby on the internet.
Have you ever tried to Kayak on the internet? You have to buy a camera and be entertaining in your videos. In general no one does that unless they are getting paid. So you either Kayak, and don't plaster it all over the internet or you try to get paid for it. Same goes for pretty much every other hobby, doing it is fun, doing it "on the internet" is a job.
I wouldn't even blame the internet for that, doing something in a way that is interesting enough to be shared is hard work.
- JTbane 4y agoI kayak on a local lake and never considered strapping a camera to my head: I'm there to enjoy nature and get some exercise, not pad a YouTube channel.

- kamlaserbeam 4y agoI think what they mean is that to "Kayak on the internet" is to post yourself evidence of Kayaking on the internet. Such things would require a camera (if you want a good visual component) to show off your Kayaking adventures
- stonemetal12 4y agoYes, kayaking like a boat. "Why does kayaking require a camera?" It doesn't, unless you want to post pictures and videos of yourself kayaking on the internet. One can kayak as a hobby, or one can run a youtube channel about kayaking as a hobby. In which case one is no longer kayaking as a hobby, one is running a small entertainment business about kayaking as hobby.
- karmakaze 4y agoNo it isn't. You kayak in real life and share experiences. It doesn't always have to be video. There's a subreddit for practically everything. https://www.reddit.com/r/Kayaking https://www.reddit.com/r/Kayaking I've been into keyboard layouts until I finally settled on my local maxima of comfort more so than speed. https://www.reddit.com/r/KeyboardLayouts/ https://www.reddit.com/r/KeyboardLayouts/
- dc-programmer 4y agoThe barrier to sharing your running experiences on LetsRun.com are quite low and very few folks on the boards are hustling for money. On the other hand, it’s an godless cesspool that transforms it’s denizens into the worst versions of themselves. So there’s some give and take
