Hey Everyone,
6 years ago I started publishing my first YouTube videos.
259 videos later (on just the main channel) it's time for a change.
My channel has been declining for 2+ years now which is crazy since each video is dozens of hours of work (my fellow creators understand)
Despite putting 10x more effort into the resonance has been rather...low
I'm not stopping creating YouTube videos, I love sharing what I've learned and inspiring others, and to me (independent of views/subs) it's a form of creative expression.
I'm exploring new directions and formats
Trying out new stuff that interests me and doesn't feed an algorithm.
Some of my new videos are already scheduled and I'd love to invite you to check by.
I'll still do XR community-focused videos on how to land a job in XR, build your portfolio, personal branding, etc. on our second YouTube channel @immersiveinsiders
P.S. Let me know what you'd love me to talk about (XR Business topics have been doing relatively well on my channel 👀)
I'll share more on my YouTube journey this week so stay tuned 💪🏽

Let's face it,
Apple's move trying to 'remove' AR/VR/XR etc. is quite polarizing.
Some people hate it, some love it
AR/VR/MR/ has become more and more confusing especially since (in my humble opinion) MR is kinda unnecessary.
Today, pretty much every VR Headset (including Apple Vision Pro 👀) has AR/MR capabilities.
So what should we call it and why??

When you think of building a VR product...
You want to build something that actually solves a problem
You want to learn from other peoples mistakes
You want to spend your time and resources well
This is why I created “3 VR Business Ideas and Opportunities”
P.S. This video took 50+ hours to create, I hope you enjoy it and learn a thing or two ✌🏽

Not sure if you have heard that Apple launched their AR Headset recently 🤔
I think it can have a pretty big impact on our industry
Now people outside our bubble will slowly get into XR as well
This can be a HUGE opportunity for us who loved XR "before it was cool"
This could be another iPhone moment.
I talk about my thoughts on the launch of the Apple Vision Pro and its potential impact here on my YouTube channel.
