Most Negative Comment Ever.. Didn't Bother Me

In the last day I got the most negative comment on my best performing video (20k views) and it didn't bother me. I actually thought it was funny and maybe even a little true, but I had no negative emotions associated with it.

I have heard people say this is a part of YouTube is hard for them and who knows, maybe some day I will get a comment or feedback from someone that matters to me that will bother me, but for now I feel a weird sense of accomplishment that I got this comment and even though it was somewhat true, I just didn't care!

Maybe this is a benefit of being one of those 40+ yr old (pushing 50) YouTubers that just "doesn't care" what other people think any more or that I do care, but only as much as it helps me take feedback and improve.

Now, I did go and hide that commenter from the channel because I was a little worried that it could trigger similar negative comments like I have seen happen on some people's videos. This I regret *so if anyone knows how to bring a comment back that was hidden from the channel let me know because I think I would like to bring it back.*.

It's not like the comment was inappropriate or blatant trolling or anything and I am now sort of wishing I used the opportunity to get more feedback on the specific reason why they made that comment so I could use that info to get better.
