2027 Is Gonna Be an Insane Year for YouTube

[LordFall]

Seems like 2027 is going to be a big year for YouTube, they're adding a bunch of changes. I think it's a great time for people to get into it and start becoming content creators. Youtube studio is becoming much more powerful with many AI features that are gonna let you basically talk to your Youtube account to figure out how to make better videos and overall be more successful on the platform.

I'm a huge data nerd so I'm going to spend a lot of time with these features to grow my multiple YouTube channels. I also work with musicians so I think the new Youtube Music upgrade is gonna be huge for them as well. 

I think honestly YouTube is my favorite product ever, and there are good arguments that it's one of the top 10 best products in the world today so I'm glad they're keeping it fresh and are on top of things with AI. 

Anyone else here creating content or planning to jump into YouTube this year?

Yes! I hope they get rid of the shorts though because it kinda copies TikTok

I deleted YouTube recently as I see it as a distraction for my personal growth but if anyone is a content creator you definitely need to have a channel there

What's wrong with copying successful content formats?

Shorts are great, they let you watch a video and only spend 30 seconds -2 mins of your time. So many cool long form videos I wanna watch but they're too long and I can only justify spending so much time watching videos a week.

That's interesting, you mostly consume YouTube on your phone? I guess I do watch shorts on my phone but I would say 70% of my YouTube consumption is on my laptop. 

Have you ever thought about being a content creator yourself? I think it's a really fun hobby to get into and the potential ROI if you manage to do it well is massive.

I make travel vlogs. It is not easy at all. One of the hardest niches since you have travel often and it can get expensive and difficult to take trips all the time. But I live abroad so it’s fine.
