Content creator here. Successful ish but won't let out what my niche is and any other personal info about my channels. Just wanna vent about the state of content creation.

Back in the early 2000s, people use to make content for fun. They weren't chasing money. They weren't chasing fame. Heck the idea of making money off of videos was still foreign at the time.

Videos might be low quality back then but it was fun to watch. It was fun to see people make skits for fun. Just making videos for the sake of making videos.

But today, a fucking 10 minute video by successful content creators are pump full of ads. Not only by the algorithm of platforms such as YouTube, Instagram, and Tiktok while scrolling. You're also fed ads in the videos itself. Some creators are even paid to fake reviews. And I hate that companies are gaining a monopoly over content nowadays.

And what makes it worse? On my Tiktok account, I already got my 17th dm offer to promote a company. From commission to flat rates and the trade off? My content needs to be made for them.

Here's where my biggest beef with people trying to turn all content creator channels and accounts into a job. I DON'T WANT TO CATER MY CONTENT JUST TO PROMOTE YOU! Just because I exist doesn't mean you should spam me with job offers. Some even send me fucking emails.

MY CHANNEL IS A HOBBY. IT'S SUCCESSFUL BECAUSE IT'S NOT FULL OF ADS. IT'S SUCCESSFUL BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO MISLEAD MY AUDIENCE TO TRUSTING RANDOM BUSINESSES.

Honestly I wish creators have a choice to have social medias to filter out these stupid businesses who keep spamming me shit.

Yes I open my dms. But not for these business mfuckers. I open it if my fans wanna reach out and inquire about my content. How I do it, and maybe tips. Heck sometimes I even got full discussions with my followers. That's why my dms are open. Not for these businesses. If y'all wanna get someone to promote your business, go hire a content creator full-time. Not bother other creators just to leech off of their fame and trying pay them to ruin their content.

Before monitization, people use to be genuine with their content. Now everyone is going into content creation wanting to be the next Mr Beast.

In Malaysia, under the civil law, the act of prostitution itself isn't illegal. It is only covered under the Sharia Courts. Which means it's completely legal for a non-Muslim to sell sexual activities to people. But there are other things that can't do that still are illegal.

- Public Soliciting (sitting by the street and asking people to have sex)

- Pimping

- Running brothels

- Sex Trafficking (obviously)

But if you're Muslim and purchase the service, you can get arrested. Meanwhile nothing is gonna happen to the non-Muslim prostitute.

The more ya know.
