This whole article is nothing but "waaaaaahhhhhh".

They should shut up and just enjoy doing something they're having an easier time doing, than grinding your average 9-5 job. Do they really think they're the only people on the planet?

sniff sniff "It so hard to turn on a camera and make sure things look right and entertaining for my audience. I thought this was easy street but I don't know how technology, algorithms or the internet works. I just expected money to come free-flowing into my account with as minimal effort as possible that reflects how many subscribers I account for. Woe is me!! By the way, don't use ad-blockers for the amount of ads on my videos because I need all I can get!"

Meanwhile, I work in a straining job where I come home, my knees feel weak, my right ankle is aching like fuck, I am mentally drained, I barely can even put together a thought process that tells me I should even have breakfast while fighting the urge to sleep while I try to have a fraction of what constitutes as a life. As well as work in a place, where I am almost always on threat of being fired for something petty because my management feels they have to have a bone to pick with me by fucking around with me and being snarky while doing it.

And all you're worried about is fucking metrics and algorithms. Shut up. Work a real fucking job. First-world problems. I swear the Guardian went out and picked the whiniest bunch of "content-creators" there is.
