What editing software do you use for YouTube? Bonus question: Are you happy with it or considering a switch? 🎬

I'll be happy to help! Like giving you a LIKE, to move UP! Or my modest opinion of your channel or whatever is in my hand... even if it's only a little help... (I'm here to learn too). Let me know 😏

I’m considering adding interviews to my YouTube channel and wanted feedback from creators who’ve tested interview formats. The idea is to bring on two types of guests: 1️⃣ People who want to get better with money– Early or mid-journey– Learning how to budget, invest, or build confidence– Real conversations about mistakes, mindset, and progress 2️⃣ People who’ve already achieved financial success– Investors, business owners, professionals– Sharing how they actually built wealth– What they did right, what they’d do differently, and what beginners misunderstand Since this group has thousands of members, I’m also thinking about interviewing volunteers from inside this community — both people still learning and people further along who want to share their story. My goal is to make money and investing feel more relatable and less intimidating. For those of you who’ve added interviews: - Did interviews help or hurt channel growth early on? - Any format advice (short vs long, solo intro first, etc.)? - Anything you’d do differently if starting interviews again? And if you’d want to be interviewed (or think you’d be a good fit), feel free to comment or DM me. Appreciate any insight 🙏

I was doing really well — and hit 500 subscribers then it crashed in December and I just cannot seem to get the momentum and watch hours back up. I didn’t change my strategy but something definitely changed. Should I do more lives? More edited videos? I don’t really understand why it all seemed to just crash. I’m getting all sorts of spam like emails from people offering to optimize my videos but I’m not sure why what I was doing before worked and then stopped. Has anyone used one of these services? Is it worth it? What are the risks? https://youtube.com/@florentislearning

YouTube's new 3-tier viewer metric is a game-changer: ✅ New Viewers = your discoverability is working ⚠️ Casual Viewers = they know you but don't need you yet 🎯 Regular Viewers = your "core" (watched 6+ months consistently) Channels with high Regular % get homepage priority in 2026. Here's the strategic question most creators miss: "What can I create ONCE that viewers want WEEKLY?" Not daily news (burnout). Not random topics (no pattern-building). Try this instead: 1. Pick ONE weekly recurring segment 2. Track Casual → Regular conversion for 8 weeks 3. Double down on what works Examples: - "Friday Founder Updates" (your niche) - "Tuesday Troubleshooting" (help + consistency) - "Weekend Workshop" (hands-on value) Currently testing this with my coaching clients - early results show 2-3x faster Regular Viewer growth vs. random posting. Anyone else adapting to this shift?
