The True Costs of Being on YouTube

I started my YouTube channel in earnest in October, 2021, shortly before That Sounds So Good, my second cookbook, came out. A little over three years later, on January 29, 2025, I uploaded the 177th episode of Carla’s Cooking Show. That video, for a cheddar burger named after my mom, is my last for now, and possibly forever.

Third-party resources are often used for displaying ads or videos and integrating with social media. The default approach is to load third-party resources as soon as the page loads, but this can unnecessarily slow the page load. If the third-party content is not critical, this performance cost can be reduced by lazy loading it.

Frustrated YouTube viewers seek explanation for hour-long unskippable ads
(androidauthority.com)
Most of us hate YouTube ads at this point. What started off as minimal intrusion into the viewer experience has gradually become longer and more intrusive, to the point where many of us prefer just paying for YouTube Premium and never seeing another ad again. For some users, that isn’t a feasible option, so they have to make their peace with watching ads to support their favorite creators and the YouTube platform.

Reflections on 1 Year of (Trying to) Become Successful on YouTube
(chaserensberger.com)
In 2024, my friend and I started making YouTube videos. This article is just some housekeeping I’m doing to keep track of progress for this channel. I hope that some people find it valuable. I offer some advice in this article, but everything should be taken with a grain of salt, as we are not (hopefully yet) a successful channel. If you’re interested in getting in touch, there is contact information at the end of the article.

I stumbled across a very cool YouTube video today that talks about how to look for alternate ways of labeling sides of two dice to give you the same random number distribution as if you added two standard dice together.

There's a tune on YouTube I always really liked called "Supersquatting." It was written by Dubmood and Zabutom, two really masterful chiptune composers, but this track always stood out to me as sounding really full and "fat."
