I think if you import to the EU via Netherlands and repack you get away with it. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

I love my Apple Watch ultra, because with cellular I can use it as a phone – a very lightweight phone without social media distractions. But I have to say I am a little bit uneasy about having a cellphone strapped to my arm. Someone with ph

Just get the youtube kids app. It only contains preapproved videos that are fine for kids. Works great.

Problem is that everyone just blocks the ads and forget to pay the creators directly, which by the way would be extremely costly and time consuming if you want to pay everyone you watch, therefore the need for a product like YT Premium...

The problem is that most people don't subscribe to hundreds of Patreon creators. It is actually REALLY hard to have a substantial income from Patreon unless you have like 1 million subscribers on youtube. YT Premium+Ads is the next bes

This is bullshit. I'm a full time youtuber, and creators get 55% of that money, and we really appreciate that income stream. Youtube is actually one of the good companies out there when it comes to paying creators a fair share. No othe

Tried using an iPad pro as a workstation. Terrible ergonomics. iPadOS multitasking is a terrible experience. USB-C transfer speeds were bad. Overall very disappointed with the experience. Went back to Macbook Pro after a couple of weeks of

Most people would probably agree that Musk made some very bad and rookie-looking decisions since acquiring Twitter. Also he has said a lot of very controversial things in the last 1-2 years. Before that he arguably was a lot more well respe

There is a great app for iPad called LumaFusion, which is very similar to Final Cut. I tried using an iPad Pro for a couple of weeks when it came out, to see if it can replace a laptop or desktop. Biggest problem was ergonomics. So incredib

Yeah in the beginning it definitely felt extremely weird talking to a camera, with no other person in the room. I had trouble talking as naturally as I do to a live audience or even to a friend. This was actually so hard for me in the begin

When I started I studied some other channels in the photography niche. And I saw that you need around 100k subscribers to make a living. I also saw that most of the successful channels in this niche needed around 5-7 years to get there. So

Appreciate that :) In a previous life I was a programmer/CTO, so it's an old habit to visit HN.

It is very hard to set a price. But when you are negotiating with brands you soon get a feel for what you are worth. And yeah I increase my rates over time if I grow the average views per video. Typically the deals are only on a video-for-v

Not at all. That's the beauty of being an influencer - it is really hard to copy what you do, including personality and all. Also, it takes years to build a following and a personal brand. Sometimes people upload copies of my videos, b

I spend on average around 10 hours per video. (1h ideation, 4h filming, 5h editing+thumbnail). I make at least a video a week, often 2 videos. How much time you spend per video will be up to you. There are successful youtubers who spend jus
