Pros

You can hopefully meet some amazing people as your channel grows! You can upload whatever you enjoy and whenever you want, so flexible hours!

Cons

No being controversial topics are allowed to be discussed because that would upset 0.000001% of the population! No using swearing. (cause we're obviously all 12 year olds online, right?!?) No playing most games that would get any views cause of that darned swearing and some controversal tropics! Oh yeah, and if you do any of the stuff I said not to, you get paid $0! Nice! So basically its impossible to make a video and get paid nowadays unless you're just some vlogger/tutor/music producer/clean joke channel!
