Fair enough. I have a few gripes with the channel, particularly how they title videos and the thumbnails are usually cheesy. The content can be hit or miss, but

Fair enough. I have a few gripes with the channel, particularly how they title videos and the thumbnails are usually cheesy. The content can be hit or miss, but the smart house series is especially relevant to me as I'm going through something similar a smaller scale. The thing that I find so interesting is that they - for better or worse - essentially live stream their business decisions, challenges, and aspirations. Whether their endeavors are successful or not, I agree with their decision to try and move beyond Youtube and create their own video platform via Floatplane. They've also found success in alternative revenue streams via sponsorships from reputable brands and merchandising and are very open about their metrics. Lastly, I really respect that they are 100% bootstrapped. I've only ever worked for companies that rely on investor funding for growth, and their influence often feels intrusive and counterproductive.
