people sink thousands hours into youtube instead of learning ball/guitar, cause that's where perceived image of success (tm) inhabits currently. it's curious how it's self-reinforcing prophecy, but oh well.
That's so depressing lol
Just imagining a kid out there with an incredible ear, scrolling through hours of algo optimization content because they want to be just like mr beast
i'm sure parents had same idea about kids noodling on guitar during nirvana craze (for earlier live reaction video see back to the future).
nah but i think it's two different lanes (ball-guitar-professional gamer) and (tv presenter-model-youtuber), one is skill related the other famousness related, although they are obviously intertvined in all sorts of ways. while one can be annoyed at the first, the second is always whatever.
