It's been a year since I decided I was going to do this as a full-time job!  In this vlog, I talk about how that decision came about, what's changed now that this is a job and not a hobby (Good!) and stuff about YouTube that's changing as a whole (Bad Bad BAD).  Enjoy!

Thanks, good vlog. Just discovered your channel and went to Patreon. Great to see work from people like you. I was raised on the Speccy back in Iceland in the 80's and it's lovely to see people focus on the british scene since because that is what I grew up on, with all the weird games and magazines. I would never have had the long career in video games myself without the speccy :)

Way I see it all these internet communities have a lifespan. Then something else comes along. If you look at Patreons terms of service it's a pretty shakey platform compared to, say Paypal, in terms of them cutting you off with little recourse. I think if you're making evergreen content then hopefully you can take that with you and have security in that respect. But I notice a lot of content providers now are going back to mailing lists to try and get a direct line to their audience instead of relying on external gatekeepers. It's something to keep in mind and maybe start building a list now to prepare for any future transition or just improve your reach. A tweet might be read by a couple of percent of your followership. Same with a Facebook post. Email gets at least opened by most people if you use it correctly and you aren't at the mercy of some algorthm, other than Gmail's filtering of course.
