aw man i definitely get how demoralizing it is to see your viewership decrease (and 99.999% of the time it's not you it's weird youtube algorithm nonsense) but i love your videos so much and i would be so sad if you left!! but as others have said the most important thing is that you take care of yourself so whatever is best for you is what i think you should do!! whether that's stopping, taking a long break, decreasing upload frequency, or continuing as you currently are. your wellbeing is the priority!!!

Zulu and Xhosa are such unique and special languages and types of ASMR to find such consistent and engaging content in, this is your niche! Being a niche can probably seem pointless rather than fun sometimes but it’s so worth it from where I’m sitting, you make such magical content!! Xx

Please, don’t stop. Take a break if you feel like you it’s needed but your way of talking about your culture, language and environment is so precious. So many people are so self centered. For me, who has no tights to your world, I find it fascinating and humbling. So please do continue (if it helps, try to imagine the number of views as people in a room, you will see how many listen 😚

Stay please!!! There’s nothing we love more than getting educated with your smooth voice, hearing stories about your life, and learning!! I just showed your channel to my baby sister and she really loved it too!

I genuinely love your videos because of how personalized they are. I love learning more about South Africa and even your videos on the continent as a whole. This semester was my last semester of my bachelors degree where I took an African studies class which was one of the best classes I have ever taken. I thoroughly enjoy your content and the soft speaking is really relaxing. I wish more people watched your videos you should have way more followers!

I found you from your teaching us about traditional African foods video. I liked it a lot because it’s so unique concept wise and your voice/mannerisms are incredibly tingly! I really would love to continue seeing videos from you educating us on things that you are passionate about, but I can understand how it can get demotivating The best advice I can give is “If you build it, they will come.” That goes to say that sure these videos are underperforming now, but who’s to say the algorithm won’t pick one up and cause people to go back to learn more in your channel. I’m about to watch your second foods video now and I watched the beauty tips one as well. I would say make sure to mention you have related videos to the topic when you make the video so people know to click into your channel to find more on the same topic.

Nanananah you're one of my favourite people on YouTube, if you leave I leave and I'm never watching ASMR again. I can compete with you in an overthinking competition if you'd like though

Go where your heart tells you. Are you doing this because you want the engagement or because it's what you genuinely love doing? As long as you are getting the joy of creating out of it, then that in itself will radiate out of your work. There are times for ebb and flow, so right now might be an ebb and you might not have the same passion and might need a break. That doesn't mean it has to be forever, it could just be a hiatus. But if you realize that you are in a different place and this is no longer what fills your creative well, then do something different. Trust your heart, and even if it doesn't feel like it, thousands of people are still watching you. That's not nothing😊

I can get how disheartening it can be to watch your views go down but your ASMR videos are so refreshing. I love that you teach thoroughly while making sure it’s relaxing to the viewer, it’s different from everything else I watch you’re really in a category of your own imo.

For some reason, I can’t handle whispering. So I’m only able to watch the soft spoken videos. Your videos are lovely . I especially love the way you share your beautiful culture with us. Of course, I would always want you to do what is best for you!♥️

No please don’t! As a small ASMR channel with barely any views, keep doing what you enjoy for YOU❤️ And the right people will watch along the way. Honestly I’ve learned so much from you and the way you embrace your culture has inspired me to embrace my own more too!

Please don’t leave, you’re my favourite ASMRtist, I watch your videos every night to get to sleep, you’re the only one I can rely on - the best voice and most interesting videos on YouTube ❤️

I've loved your videos for years, especially where you speak about African cultures because I live on the opposite side of the world!! I hope you never feel burnt out or unmotivated because you've brought such a unique experience to the asmr community. It's not easy to find amazing channels like this. Of course, take your time and do what feels best for you, just know a lot of people will love your content for a very long time.

You’re the only asmrtist I watch now, I watched you throughout my horrible pregnancy and now my little boy is 4 months old we go to sleep to your videos most days, I love learning about your culture as Africa as a whole and never meant anyone with such a soothing voice! I never used to watch soft spoken but your soft spoken videos are the Bomb ❤️ Lots of love from England ❤️

I watch your videos almost every night! You remind me so much of an older sister and I love learning about your culture and interests very much. I’m honestly shocked you’re not getting more views because the videos are AMAZING! I hope that knowing how much we value you can help through the slow times.

I feel like you should do whatever makes you happy. No matter the numbers, there are many many of us that adore you. Personally this is my favorite ASMR channel!!! If I have tingle immunity I come straight here.

AFRICAN XHOSA ASMR
Real talk: views are low and motivation is somewhere under the couch. Do I keep doing what I love, which is dropping knowledge bombs and whispering people into dreamland? Or should I take the hint from the algorithm, retire early, and finally pursue my real passion: gourmet snacking, Olympic-level napping, and overthinking everything from ‘did I lock the door?’ to ‘why did I say hi like that in 2011?’ Honestly, it’s a tough call. 🤔🫨🤭
