    Llama 1B AI Chat - Offline LLM is new and currently free, will be $1.99 - requires iOS 18

    If you’re into this thing, I would definitely recommend purchasing Private LLM.

    That said, this appears to be an unquantized model of 3.2 1B. Private LLM only has quantized versions.

    I have no interest in continuing this with you. You've already shown in this thread an unwillingness to take in properly the arguments I make. Each time you respond you ignore most of my points and move the goalposts. This strategy is very familiar. If I'm not mistaken we have had a variation of this discussion already on Instagram and I don't want to waste my time in that way again. You are very sure of your opinions but you are also not at all informed about the level of work involved from the YouTuber side.

    @Simon yes, Beatcuttter - it took me about a week of full time work - testing and learning and making that vid on Beatcutter. It was tough work, the manual was terribly convoluted, even more so than the release version. There is also a lot of behind the scenes work people are never aware of. To take just one example, I spend many hours a month testing and learning apps that I might make vids on but decide not to. There's also a lot of admin and correspondence. Anyway, over and out.

    I’m just not into the unnecessary drama. And, you are completely wrong, I don’t have Instagram or any other social media other than YouTube.

    I am interested in the ‘iOS Tubers skillset’ you mentioned but to be fair think the separate thread appropriate.

    Beyond the video creation and self promotion skillset and, pointing out what’s on the screen, what is the skillset and where’s the added value from your perspective? Genuinely curious.

    Sorry, I have other things to do, this conversation has already taken too much of my morning. Feel free to reflect on it yourself for a while.

    You do you. But I gotta say I miss the gavinski on YouTube. But obviously it’s not worth enough for me to commit to a monthly payment so do with that as you will.
    But if I may ask, why do you choose to use twitter as a platform for the giveaways? I’m asking because I deleted my account when musk bought twitter. I feel like I ended up on another side of the world than you since patreon and twitter. Which is a bit sad for me. Please don’t feel like any of this is a critique or me wanting to bash you in any way. I admire your work and think you are great.

    Hi Pia, don't worry, I know you're not trying to bash me, and I know that not everyone will have the money or value my stuff enough to support financially. That's totally fine, of course! The internet is a big place, we can't support everyone. But I don't really understand this comment, "I feel like I ended up on another side of the world than you since patreon and twitter."

    Yes, some of my vids are exclusive to Patreon, but I do still post regularly on YouTube, Insta etc. Yes there are few giveaways outside Patreon now, but I need to do that to try to scrape a little money out of this, otherwise my work in this niche will really finish for good. Ultimately I have to put my own financial, mental and physical wellbeing above what my audience want, even those who, like you, like my stuff and appreciate me. In this case I posted on Twitter and not Insta or YouTube, as this post was more text based, with links, and Insta is not the right forum for that, as links are not clickable.

    For what it's worth, I can't stand what Musk is doing with Twitter, it's terrible. Social Media of all kinds, including even YouTube to a lesser extent, is really a curse. I would roll back the clock to the pre-Web-2.0 90s in a heartbeat. I have thought about leaving Twitter many times. But I also don't think that all the more progressive or left wing people closing their accounts and moving to Threads is the answer. Anyway, I personally just use Twitter for promoting iOS stuff, I rarely engage with other content there.

    Furthermore, I have spent a lot of time building my Twitter. Twitter helps me get the word out about Patreon, and my work there increases my value proposition to devs. So I just can't afford to shut down that account as it will further limit my reach, making it even harder for me to get compensated for what I'm doing. This niche is already so small as it is.

    Hope you understand, Pia, cheers

    Maybe it deserves another thread or perhaps in PM, but I am curious if YT algorithms have affected you and therefore influenced your decision. Only asking because I follow a few content creators in YT and they have expressed some frustration with the algorithm of YT killing their channels.

    Maybe it deserves another thread or perhaps in PM, but I am curious if YT algorithms have affected you and therefore influenced your decision. Only asking because I follow a few content creators in YT and they have expressed some frustration with the algorithm of YT killing their channels.

    Hi Alex, I feel my channel performs ok. I often get better stats on video views than bigger, even much bigger, channels in this niche. Actually, YouTube does not care that much about subscriber numbers, and many larger, older channels have lots of ‘dead’ subs: people who never unsubscribed but have moved on.

    Views in this niche for all YouTubers seem down hugely compared to the pandemic era when I started. Look t the views on Jakob Haq or The Sound Test Room’s recent vids - they are a shadow of what they were a few years ago. I have not got the information I would need, though, to judge whether that is due to less interest in the niche or due to changes in the algo. I suspect it is due to both. The main problem, apart from all that, which channels like ours face is simply that the iOS niche itself is too small to be properly compensated from ad revenue. Many viewers watching behind ad blockers does not help either. YouTube ad revenue is tiny so it only adds up if videos get a lot of views. In an obscure niche like this, that is just not possible due to limited potential audience size. That’s why myself and some others harp on about the importance of Patreon.

    The activity levels on this forum are down massively, so that would suggest some loss of interest in iOS music production. People talk about mobile music as the future. I am not so sure about that. I haven’t spoken to devs about this, but if app sales are down heavily compared to a few years ago, that would be the main indicator of loss of interest. I don’t know if app sales are down, I suspect they are. But that could also be due to more competition.

    On YouTube though, it is also a fact that the algorithm will push the most ‘engaging’ stuff to people’s home page. Many people no longer check their ‘Subscriptions’ page, they just go with what the algorithm presents to them on the home page. If people are regularly viewing other content over iOS music production content, the home page will eventually stop showing that iOS content to them. All YouTube cares about is maximizing time viewers spent on the site, as this maximizes ad revenue. They will push whatever content achieves that goal and will suppress the reach of content that doesn’t. It is not just viewers who get manipulated by the algorithm, it is also creators. YouTube incentivizes, whether from viewers or creators, whatever behavior is in YouTube’s best interest. It’s understandable, from their shareholder perspective, but I don’t like being part of that.

    In summary, I think that difficulty sustaining our channels likely reflects both a loss of interest in the niche and some algorithmic decisions by YouTube, but I think my channel is faring ok or even relatively well with the algorithm compared to similar channels in the same niche.

  • Regarding apps and sales in general...

    Those of us who have been 'in the game' for a longer time start to have a pretty complete 'tool box' thus the real need for new apps is not there like it used to be say 3-4 years back when the toolboxes ware still being assembled.

    Most new apps are more or less some form of re-packaging or re-skinning of existing functionality with new labels.

    Less is more, trying shortcut the learning process by constantly buying new apps leads nowhere...

    Very true Samu - my own interest in new apps is certainly diminished compared to a few years ago. Few are really doing anything very novel or needed, or making much meaningful use of the touch screen. It’s ok, it’s a sign of the ecosystem maturing. If anyone on desktop was trying to buy everything that came out, their peers would think they must be absolutely bonkers, and they’d be right.

  • @Gavinski said:

    This is what I feel is still happening on iOS. Some seem to still buy all apps to support the developers thinking that they will save the entire platform by faking a demand for new apps by artificial fertilization called 'support buying'.

    There are some nice new apps in the pipe which I know I'll be getting one way or the other...

    Agreed.

    The platform needs a different approach now tht the apps
    have matured to the level of desktop apps with caveats.
    One can only collect so many apps.

    Personally I've set a yearly limit on app spendings (for this year it's max $600 and I'm currently slightly bellow $350 with a few months remaining).

    Latest purchases are Quanta 2, Discovery, OB-Xd V3 and TB Equalizer Pro and Crack (the plug-in, no substance abuse here)...
    ...prior to that the annual sub for LogicPro for iPad. I've also squeezed in XVox, Trash 3, Two Gadgets, TeraPro Rings IAPs and a few smaller ones...

    I'm still doing my 'app cleanup' and re-visiting older apps on a regular basis and reducing the installed app-flora keeping the cream of the crop :sunglasses:

    It may sound like a broken record but apps such as Drambo & Mela 5 keep the real need to get new apps under control.

    Last year saw me buying hardware over apps
    and this year I've spent even less.
    I've spent much more time designing in
    dRambo and now that I've combined
    dRambo, Loopy Pro and MixBox
    I can simply create whatever comes to mind.

    This is something I need to on my iPads
    which is a good clean up, clear out.

    It may sound like a broken record but apps such as Drambo & Mela 5 keep the real need to get new apps under control.

    Agreed
    I don't use Mela 5, I still have Mela 3
    however whenever I need to go deep
    I almost always turn to dRambo

    I was tempted recently by Kkevgrands OneShot
    until I started rummaging through
    the drum sounds that I already have.
    I will get OneShot eventually but once again
    dRambo and third party samples
    from my personal sample library filled that gap.
    I have enough really good quality apps
    in my toolbox and as an Artist
    I have more than enough now.
    I can use them at a professional level because
    stability has improved right across the board on the iOS platform.
