Closing My YouTube Account
4 months ago
My Journal
In my last deluded rant on FA I mentioned between the speech of this country’s collapse that I have left Instagram and Twitter for good. Today I have officially decided on another platform that I haven’t been happy with for months… years. Idk. Let me explain why I’ve been closing myself off and I feel like this is the best path forward until I find the direction, or the internet starts being good again.
I have officially decided to privatize nearly all my videos on my Josh the Kataroo YouTube channel and for the foreseeable future or longer keep it closed off not only due to the fact that I have become increasingly paranoid of AI and the fact my own voice is on some of the videos, as well as other crap about the platform I’ve grown to become hostile towards in recent years, but also many many personal reasons why I’m doing this. One of the more simple things I can say on why is because I am not happy with this channel. I am not happy with my videos, and how they’ve been going downhill, and how nothing I seem to create seems to work anymore. There have been many many videos that I’ve started and never finished, either because I don’t have the energy or I start to actively hate what I make or fear I will legit make something that will ultimately hurt me. Plus the fact both of my channels barely cracked any views post 2022 it feels like this channel isn’t built for this modern era of slop and ”Ai devious backshot rizz gamer storytelling compilation #1000 (you won’t believe what happens next 😱⁉️)” type of videos out there now.
So what will happen next? I’m probably going back to my main YouTube channel (WamVideoArchive) and I will rename it to J-555FILMS, just like my current Vimeo channel is named. And I could produce videos on either of those, but what those videos will be will either be random things I make or some project I put together on my own terms. Ideally something that isn’t a rant or a video that I don’t feel like making anymore. Will this change and I re-instate everything back on JTK? Maybe in the future, but rn I don’t really feel safe there anymore. Sorry for anyone who is upset by this decision, but I think this is for the best. I’m slowly leaving the major forms of social media; Twitter and Insta are gone, and now this is closed. I feel more free this way.
