It’s a bit sad that my videos in zambia, Ghana, peru and les developed countries tend to underperform on youtube and socials.

I have a coupe of amazing outliers from Kenya, but I think they truly are exceptional stories.

My videos about bitcoin in western countries perform better on the whole.

Sure, a profit driven, engagement is everything youtube channel would be like.. okay, then stop covering africa and latam, just do bitcoin in the west.

But fuck man.

I wanna tell the “global majority” bitcoin stories.

Advice? Takes? Stfu Joe?

Dunno, I'm not YouTube expert. But I know algorithms hate freedom since they are part of the system. And personally lately I don't see any eagerness nor motivation nor interest in Bitcoin nor freedom from people. They tend to enjoy complaining about the economy, agree that inflation sucks, some eve...

Keep doing them? I mean fuck it, advertisers and algorithms like you covering honky stuff but travelling to Africa and all sorts of interesting places sounds pretty cool if you ask me. You gonna swap that for a few quid? Your choice... Is money the only metric you value your time in?

Hi Joe, why not running your own instance of "youtube channel" and be rewarded directly for that? You solution may scalate and be eventually useful to other people as well. Keep pushing, nakamoto 🔥👏 #autonomia #independencia #privacidad #soberania #libertad ReadyToPrepare La soberanía no s...

What's your timeframe for labeling a video "underperformer"?

Didn’t had the chance to look at it, but I will today. Inspiring to see how bitcoin actually help in many realities. 🤟

Yeah, sad indeed - but keep these coming, you're doing super important work.

My first take is you're genuinely trying to help the places that need it, not exploiting them, but it's functionally impossible to separate yourself from exploiters, especially when there's ad revenue. The more you try to focus on "less fortunate" places, the more suspicion your channel risks assoc...

Regardless of the stats, keep making what you see as important. It rounds your credibility and you’re building a sturdy foundation of integrity for the future. Much better than being yet another content creator that just blows around in the winds of hype and trend.

Make clips or trailers or shorts or whatever they're called referencing the longer videos. Fight the algo.

Just watched 2 of your videos, and subscribed. Fantastic content! I am so happy and excited for those villages and merchants! I don't have words to express the difference between those growing communities and what we have here in the West.

Yes you can fix this. I have some advice. Western audiences will never care about Ghana, Zambia etc… but what they do care about are human stories. Let me show you xyz poor country reads as travel/charity content to the western brain. A single compelling human story though is a real hook peopl...

I find the non western videos of yours the most inspiring and informative deliveered in your fun and chaeming style. It shows the real power of Bitcoin and the good it can do to change peoples lives. Keep doing what you love 👍

It's because Africa is dangerous and even if the video is good it means we won't be able to travel there. Look at your thumbnail, the road is just a dirt road. Africa is so undeveloped that we can't even travel there safely. So most people skip African videos. I know I don't care much about Africa s...

It could easily blow up later, and even those videos have a smaller reach initially, the viewers of that type of content and going to be of higher quality than slopsumers May God grant you even more success

Personally I enjoy all Joe nakomito videos and , while I'd never actually want to visit Africa personally, it's great to see how bitcoin is being used by and serving people that need it.

I think "stfu", but in a good way. West is for gaining cosmo points, marketing, gaining traction, gaining more eyes and subscribers. South is for doing what is important and that's where you spent your cosmo points...

Without any concrete data, I would say that at least in Africa, TikTok is the main video content platform. YouTube is not consumed as much.

Keep going on this path Joe telling Bitcoin stories from developing countries is incredibly valuable. It might not always get the most attention now, but over time it compounds and the impact becomes massive. What you’re building really matters 👊🧡🫵🏽

Bro… keep on keeping on. Might be worth doing a promo of shorts for MaMa Afrik and LatAm separately pushing them as a curated series. Might also wanna try tapping up the high signal black and latino YouTubers to jointly intro your work

People dont care about the 99% being lifted up. They want to see stories of the 1% becoming the .001% Meanwhile bitcoin is for the destitute

Feels like your ego is hurt. I would suggest that you stop judging yourself by likes/views on YouTube, etc. Instead, prepare videos and live your life for the love of it -- unconditionally. When your work reflects your true self, authentically, you will gain satisfaction and fulfillment -- no matte...
