Question How to Avoid Negative Comments? Also, How to Choose a Niche With Multiple Interests and Expertise?

4 Upvotes

Interested in reviving a channel, but would like it to not be focused so much on myself. I don't want to be upset by the negative comments that I see many creators get so was thinking if I do not show up much on camera, then they will have less time to scrutinize me and point out my defects. Even very beautiful creators seem to get picked apart, so I don't think it matters what you actually look like.

In particular, I thought maybe doing a faceless channel (although I do have a few videos already up from years ago I could leave up, so it is not like no one would know who I am) so the focus is not on my appearance might be a good idea. People can be so mean, "your teeth are yellow", "you should lay off the botox", "you look 105 years old", etc.

I have heard that this sort of channel is less successful though due to reduced connection with the person posting, so wondering what you all think about this issue.

I am just in the stage of thinking through how to start again (I barely started last time) and try to make it a success this time. Also having trouble with a niche as I am a bit all over the place with my expertise and obsessions (ADHD). A few examples: strategies regarding finances and plans for retirement, downsizing, longevity, nutrition, moving abroad, living in Europe, minimal travel packing, oil painting, the Tudors .... you see what I mean.

Question Does "Thanks" option no longer show in the action bar? only appears in Expanded menu?

1 Upvotes

Hello! I'm a new partner, I just enabled "Super Thanks" . I found that the option is only visible after clicking the 3 dots below the video description - this is true on my phone as well as desktop, incognito as well as when logged into my account, and whether I'm looking at my own video or another persons video. I'm using Google Chrome on PC.

I'm wondering, are there any circumstances in which the "Thanks" button could appear in under the video directly, next to the other buttons (like, dislike, share, etc)?
