PostOS is officially out.
I've put a lot of hours into building PostOS into something I think will genuinely help a lot of freelance editors, looking to scale their business.
Let me just show you a quick tour and a fraction of what it can do 👇🏻

I’m gonna say it.
New streamers. If you spend 8-10 hours every day on your ass playing video games, you’re not “grinding” anything.
It’s not 2018 and you’re not the next Ninja.
Treat this game smart. Think of your career beyond just streaming.

I wanted to make a graphic that sums up the differences between Twitch & YouTube.
Looking mostly at the daily streaming model, and how it compares to YouTube’s content ecosystem model.
Streaming on YouTube with INTENT to create other forms of content.

Been wanting to make a small, bite size version of what I talk a lot about on stream for a while.

It pains me to see new streamers with Follower Only Mode on in their chat. It does more harm to your channel than good.
I've had times where I wanna raid small streamers with 90-130 viewers and they have it turned on. So, a small piece of advice from me...

Content creators get so hung up on production value and quality.
Getting the right camera, lens or microphone, they forget about the most important part of the video.
The story.
No one watches a YouTuber or streamer because of the camera they use.

If Twitch shut down tomorrow, because of this DMCA stuff, would you be ready?
Are you making videos? Are you on TikTok? Are you doing more than just streaming for 8 hours a day.
If Twitch went bust tomorrow, would you be prepared?
If not, it's time to start.

Dear TikTok/Short form creators.
Put the damn lavalier mic on your lapel where it’s supposed to be and stop waving it around in front of the camera.
Same goes for your ear bud microphone.
Stop it.

One thing creators need to do is to stop idolising "the grind".
It's such a toxic mentality that does only damage in the long run. Imo, there's nothing worse.
You are absolutely able to make a career and not hurt yourself in the process.

YouTube doesn't need to do anything to it's live stream features to be a competitor in the market.
YouTube is a VOD first platform that allows creators to go live and connect with their community.
Twitch is built on a kingmaker system. The ones at the top, stay at the top.��
So -
@StreamCharts
has now added YouTube Live data to their service... and if this is accurate, it means YouTube's live average viewership is about 47% larger than Twitch's.
And that's coming from about 90% fewer channels.

To all of those streamers chasing Twitch Partner, as one myself, I can confidently say it's the single, most overrated title on social media.
If your brand revolves around a checkmark, it's weak.
Build a solid brand without one, and you won't ever need it.

I've seen a few Twitch people complain about Mixer people getting Partnerships before them.
Mixer streamers worked hard for their Partnerships on Mixer, and fully deserve what they worked hard for, regardless of the platform.

Your first YouTube video is and will be trash.

Ways to avoid a DMCA strike:
1. Don't play copyrighted music on stream
2. Mute in-game music if you don't know if it's safe or not
3. Use StreamBeats
4. Sacrifice your first born to Warner Music Group
5. Don't stream
One of those seems a bit extreme, but not sure which one...

YouTuber Tip: If you haven't uploaded a video for a while - don't film a video apologising and explaining why.
Because the time it took you to film, edit and post that apology video, you could've made a video that would be worth more to your audience 👍🏻
Always think value.

When YouTube lowers the monetisation threshold next year, I'm gonna stop recommending Twitch for streaming.
For now, stay on Twitch - but start growing a YouTube channel. Stream, make videos and post shorts.
Start building it up, and be prepared to move when the time comes.

"Can we download a template?" No.
"Can we get a download XYZ?" No.
"How do I do..." Use Google.
Please stop expecting creators to hold your hand through EVERYTHING. Show some competence.

I'm gonna say this once again.
Start building a ✨content ecosystem ✨
Find ways to produce 80% of your content with 20% of your effort.
Use live streams to produce videos. Clip moments and convert them to Short/TikToks.
Create a content plan & strategy, then actually DO it.

Get ready for some tough love, as I'm gonna say something some of you might not wanna hear.
Don't blame an algorithm if you're not getting views.
Your content might just suck.
If something is not working, then change it. Treat it like a business if you want to succeed at it.

Not read any replies yet but I want to address something.
If you enjoy streaming and it’s hobby. Ignore me. Carry on. If it makes you happy who cares.
But, if you complain about not getting any viewers after a 10 hour stream and nothing else, then we have an issue.

Hot take; If you are going to college or university for a creative course, like art or media, you're wasting both time and money.
Getting a degree is only important if you're a lawyer, a doctor, or something similar.
Agree or disagree?

There is never an excuse to not be humble.
Having the confidence to know you're great at what you do, but the humility to support others and bring them up is power.
