Is this amount of views normal or am I doing something wrong?

So I just started doing YouTube and I am very well aware that it is very slow at the start, but I thought I would ask just in case I’m doing something wrong that’s preventing me from growing. My posting is focused on gaming let’s plays, and I know that is a pretty big niche so it is more difficult than others to grow on.

I have posted 3 videos and each video has gotten less and less views.
-My very first video I posted 9 days ago and it got 26 views, 5 likes, and 2 comments (both were from a friend).
-My second video was posted 4 days ago and it got 11 views, 2 likes, and 1 comment from one of my subscribers.
-My most recent video I posted 7 hours ago and only has 1 like and comment (from that same subscriber as my second video).

Now I am aware that 7 hours isn’t a long time, but I just wanted to make sure that I’m not doing anything wrong that is preventing growth.

For context, the first 2 videos were 15 and 20 minutes long both part 1 and 2 of tomb raider, and the one I posted today was part one of Subnautica 2 which was a little over an hour.

Is that pretty normal for a brand new poster or am I doing something incredibly wrong that I don’t know of?

Video quality significantly decreased, why?

So I went to record today and after remuxing the mkv file to mp4 and putting it into resolve, I noticed that the quality of my video is pretty bad. Both the mvk and mp4 file are like this but I have no idea why. I have recorded other videos before and they did not look like this at all. Could anyone tell me how this could've happened? I am assuming this is OBS's fault since they look the same when I just play the file by itself. I record to an external SD card plugged into my computer this time. I'm not sure why pictures aren't allowed.

YouTube lowered my picture quality, is there a fix?

So I just started youtube, and on my 2 videos I have up I have noticed that the video quality has decreased by a lot (despite youtube saying it's in 1080p). These have been up for a while so I know it cant be youtube still processing it.

I edit in Davinci Resolve and I exported in 1920x1080, so they should be in HD. Is this normal for youtube? I would assume no.

I have pictures but I am not allowed to post them here

Is there a way to stop this from happening? Is there a known fix to this?

Need some help with DaVinci Resolve, all audio tracks not showing sometimes

So I am starting a YouTube channel, and I posted my first video recently. For recording, I followed the instructions in the video that I linked somewhere in this post. Long story short, he tells you to tell OBS to record everything on track one, but also check box 2 for your microphone and three for your game (or vis versa) so they are all separated and that it’s easier to edit them individually, but as a precaution, they’re both also recorded on track one.

I agree with that, although this doesn’t seem to work, sort of. When I first imported my first video into resolve, only one track showed up: the one containing both audio sources. I was still learning the software so I didn’t really touch it. I left it, learned resolve a bit more, and a couple weeks later, I went back in the original project for my video and I think I just deleted what I had imported before and put a brand new timeline in.
For some reason when I did this, all 3 of my audio tracks suddenly showed up (You can see this in image one. I deleted the one that contains both and kept the two separate ones).

Now going on to edit my second video, recorded the exact same way as before, but this time only one audio track is showing up (image 3). Doing a quick test, I made a brand new project and put the video that I had already posted in a new project, but this time instead of showing all the tracks like before, it only showed the one that contains both the microphone and game audio (image 2).

Could someone explain to me how I can make all three audio tracks appear every single time like it did before? And also tell me why this is happening?

This isn’t a job, I’m not asking for a Rate per hour

Hey everyone, so I am finally starting YouTube and I will be doing let’s plays on video games. I would like to use music in certain portions of my videos, but I’m not sure what the situation is with that.

I’ve done a little bit of research and I’ve seen the top places to go are epidemic sound and uppbeat. The thing is, I’m not sure which one to go to. I’ve seen some good things about both and I’ve also seen some pretty concerning things.

I don’t want to run into any problems down the line, or even getting copyright struck for a video. Especially because I hope to make some money off of this at some point.

I’m not really too sure what their policies are since I don’t really understand all of the legal rhetoric they use. So I thought I would come here and see if anyone could enlighten me.

Which one is more consumer friendly? Or which one would you recommend?
What happens if I stop paying? Does that mean all my videos that I have used their music in get copyright struck?
Could somebody just give me a general overview on how this sort of stuff works?
