I just don't understand Amelia at all. I used to enjoy her content when she was doing blogging / YT on the side but she's lost her way so much and seems to be hanging on to this career for dear life, but I don't get the vibe that she actually likes or enjoys it anymore? I don't mean this as a criticism, more just an observation but at this point surely it is barely paying her bills? She doesn't have a niche, seems to have lost her creativity, and has alienated her viewers by doing too many irrelevant ads and telling them off all the time. I feel like she has so little disposable income she can't invest in creating a video that isn't an ad? I just can't imagine that being a nice way to work so I wouldn't blame her if she was fed up. But if that is how she feels she should consider going back to a 9-5 and do the blog / YT part time again.
I am completely against people GENUINELY trolling and sending hate to anyone, whoever they are and whatever they do. But, I do question all this alleged hate Amelia gets. I don't deny that "influencers " get crappy messages regularly, but quite often they will show examples and talk about it on their stories etc, and will usually acknowledge it is a very small number of people compared to their audience. If Amelia has had that many in 30 mins or whatever, why on earth isn't she naming and shaming these people?? I know someone IRL who is a travel blogger and has a similar size following to Amelia and she has maybe got one or two horrible messages in her time online, for such a low following I just can't her being inundated with hate in half an hour??
ALSO final thing and this is an actual rant - that screenshot is a tit show and the exact reason people cba with her. In one sentence she's saying "I'm so sad some of YOU through it was acceptable to type that out" i.e. blaming her audience and followers, and then in the next sentence is trying to identify with her audience by saying "I, like a lot of people blah blah blah". Well, which is it Amelia? Are you bollocking your followers, or are you just like us???
