As a small YouTuber what should we compare ourselves too?

Small growth is still good growth?

I started my journey a couple of weeks ago. It has been a lot of fun. I am seeing all of you post some really amazing questions and content. I am wondering how do you guys stay motivated?

I see you guys are getting subscribers fairly quickly but not so many views. How are you accomplishing that?

My shorts are getting 500+ views with only 30 subscriber. Maybe shorts are not something you can gain followers with?

I entered into the gambling community, so I understand it's a niche community. I gain roughly 1 subscriber a day. Who do you guys compare to? Obviously we cannot compare to channels like Mr beast.

As always keep up with the good content. I wish you all the best. You guys are killing it!🤙
