Yello's YouTube Corner
I'm way too obsessed with making videos.

My YouTube channel is called Yello's Island, of course. It's gone through quite a few phases since its inception, but one consistency has always been my personal thoughts and stories within every video.
As of right now, my channel is focused on personal anecdotes around the games and systems I've owned over the years. Each of them have interesting stories behind them, so I wanted to share that in a very chill, low stakes environment, without unnecessary edits and effects tacked on.
History of my channel
YouTube Addict (Pre-2017)
Ever since I discovered YouTube around 2008, this platform basically became my entire entertainment hub. I watched less TV and movies and more YouTube videos throughout my day. This was before even having an account, so instead of subscribing to channels to have them automatically pop up in my feed, I would look them up using the search bar from memory, which feels like a bygone era. I've had so many YouTube creators that I would obsess over, watching every single one of their videos for hours.
There are way too many channels to list and honestly, their individual names don't matter (cuz a couple of them are questionable nowadays). I was in love with the concept of a YouTube video itself; how it felt more personal and raw than traditional media. I was able to attach myself to the personality of the creator (almost parasocially oops) and become invested in whatever they had to say. There really was nothing like it.
