Honestly consider making a video about niche stuff or something not that well known. I will throw you an example free of charge: there is a game called “ I of the enemy”
They planned to make it 2 games but sadly they were forced to can it as a demo because they couldn’t headbutt with the greats such as AoE and Red Alert

I started a channel a month ago with 0 subs, most people click on videos that land on their front page so my strategy is going to be ride on the current topics. I made a video on old BF clones right after BF6 beta that did 100 views and gave me 6 subs, after that I made a video on extraction shooters namedropping Arc Raiders in the title and did 2k views with 20 subs. Sad to have to whore the algorithm like that but it is what it is.
The only problem is I don't know what to pick for my next video subject.

Yes, the algorithm values engagement more than views nowadays. Of course views still count but the name of the game right now is subs gained, thumbs up, comments and watch time. Botting for views or subs used to be useful but not anymore. On Twitch it's definitely the main strategy if you want to grow fast, you can pretty much pay for increasing numbers of views over the course of 1-2 years and then scale that down over 1 more year once you've gained an audience. Twitch won't do shit because they can't prove you're the one botting yourself and not a bad actor.

Something that is pretty hard to me is that you have to put out a ton of content regularly to get pushed by the algo and satisfy zoomies that browse all day. At best I can do a video once every two weeks if you take into account writing the bullet points, recording, cutting down the audio, adding video and some light editing and making the thumbnail. And that's something I would consider "low effort" since the footage is trailers and online vids instead my own footage. I envy people like Legendary Drops who can just yap about random shit in front of a camera in one shot, put that out and do 1M views.

You’ve already kinda fucked yourself desu. You’re stuck making relevant shit now vs making what you want. I don’t blame you though, you could be someone making shit that you care about with 100 views for the next 10 years vs chasing clicks forever me get lucky and become a 900k sub channel.

Starting from 0 subs you have to make something that will generate high amount of impressions or your video will never get recommended to others. Counting on YT Search is a terrible way to grow your channel unless you make a specific tutorial/video on a somewhat niche game, views nowadays are generated through the frontpage of youtube or the right hand side recommendations, not the search feature.

You can offset that by shilling your channel. But I see what you’re saying. Ultimately though a lot of people burn out trying to stay relevant because they keep trying to remain relevant, which is hard to do vs making actual good content you like to do. Not implying anon is doing that though, basically yt’s system is shit.

I don't think you shouldn't be afraid of posting your video in threads like these when people ask for it

You obviously don't want to just shill them all over the place in every thread you find like an annoying faggot but if you just post it in threads like these / threads related to the video you created, then you should be fine
Of course you're gonna get the usual mean or 'sneed' comment thrown at you but you might also get words of encouragement or support from other anons.
People can be surprisingly nice, even here, plus if you made something, then I assume you want people to see it and interface with it.

When you get big enough people will come for you rather than the subject matter unless you fall for the trick of being a one trick pony like "the Dark Souls youtuber" or "the Counter Strike youtuber" and even then you can pivot given enough time. When no one knows you you though, people will only care about the subject matter and you will be heavily scrutinized.
