Came for the animal videos, stayed for the doll collecting videos. As a critter enthusiast who's interested in the doll community, I dont mind the change at all

"i'm almost 23" man i am always just suckerpunched every time i learn someone i watch on youtube is like, a decade younger than me XD;

I'm definitely not into the toy/doll content, but I really like you and your personality so I'll be sticking around!

i enjoyed your pet videos but i stopped watching them as i felt that seeing all those bad pet tik toks was effecting me mentally. seeing innocent animals being abused like that was quite distressing, especially knowing that most of those people have gotten away with hurting them and are still out there. im still gonna be subbed as i love toy collection videos and dolls, im excited to see your new videos.

Been here since MLP, since then loved every bit of the content you make. Continue to do what makes you happy Soda! ❤

I'm gonna be honest, I'm not into the doll collector content but I will stay subscribed nonetheless. If you ever upload animal related content again, I'll happily watch. Stay safe!

It honestly hurts to feel guilty because of these animal pet videos on TikTok. I'm so proud of you following your happiness and doing what you love. That Bluey essay was golden Hazel... I'd love to see animation memes If you want and for you to talk about shows you love. Like miraculous ladybug, I know the internet hates it but I like it.

Also I do think that reviewing the "bad pet tiktoks" is really just giving them attention and engagement and giving them views. Best to just avoid them like the plague and not let the algorithm boost them and let them reach even more impressionable kids.

i used to watch your pet videos all the time when i was younger, thanks for all the great content youve made over the years 😁

I actually resubbed to you because of the toy videos! I'm not much into pet/animal lifestyle content, but I found you reviewing and talking about toys again quite nostalgic because I grew up with your MLP videos. I'm also huge into dolls and toys and children's/family media myself, despite not collecting them, so this really appeals to me. Frankly I love the new direction yer heading, but that's just my thoughts. ^^

sods pets I know that you dont really think your videos changed anything, but that when you did make pet vids I had a fish of my own and I care a lot about it but I had no idea that I was unknowingly hurting them with the tank size and water! ur vids had open a whole new perspective for me on fish care and since then my betas are now properly taken care of. 😊

I know I’m late but I had to rehome my Green Cheek Conure a few years ago. I started college and didn’t have time for him so he would scream a lot. I rehomed him to a family friend who wanted a more interactive bird and he has done great. I got a cockatiel a few months after and now have 2 again. I have found cockatiels are not only adorable but their needs are something I can accommodate with my lifestyle. Sometimes you discover things about yourself and situation that help determine the right pet for you. I still cried the day I rehomed him but it was for the better for the both of us.

Lovely to hear that your turtle and fishes are in good care! I have been here since 2014 and have especially loved your animations as well as your older series, though my favourite era is certainly the video essay style analysis/retrospectives you are doing now! 💓

as someone who started watching this channel for mlp i see this as an absolute win

Ah! I wondered why I hadn't seen one of your videos in a while! So your pet videos are why I'm here. I got cockatiels last year for the first time since I was a teen and you were one of a few channels I watched to make sure I was gonna do right by them. Then moving forward you started doing the tiktok videos and you educated me a LOT on fish care and frankly... kids youtube. Thanks to you I did a purge on my kids youtube content. Everytime you mentioned a bad pet channel I'd go find it and block it for my son. If my son comes across something similar I block it and I explain why he can't watch those videos anymore. Why what is being done is bad for the animals. You've helped me in a lot of ways and I thank you for that. I'm not into the doll stuff. I probably won't watch it. I'm gonna stay subscribed though for whatever pet videos you make on occasion though and to watch your old videos. But you should absolutely make the content you wanna make and enjoy making. You're an awesome person who makes awesome content no matter what is.

I'm not big into the toy review stuff, but I'm not going to unsubscribe, just going to set the notifications to personalised and check in once and a while instead. I do wish you all the best, though!

Unrelated but love the bangs!

I started watching your animal/pet videos in mid 2022 and have started to dive into your toy videos as well, I love seeing you show off your collection and the things that make you happy!! You can’t get rid of me that easily, Soda lol. 💕

I haven't seen your channel lately thanks to the algorithm, but I'm glad this update is what I saw first. I respect that you've moved onto other topics that are enjoyable. I worked at a pet store in 2021 and watched your content and other care guides and reaction videos and started to realize just how negative it can make you feel. Rather than enjoying pets I started to always expect to see neglect and that's definitely not great. I'm not a doll collector but I do like your content so I'm still going to be subscribed just to check in sometimes! Thank you for all the nice content.

I love both your animal activism and toycore videos 🥰💙💜 Your video content is dope

Completely reasonable for you to feel overwhelmed! 💞 And I’d say it’s a good decision for you to step back and do something you have more interest in. I’ve been here since I was, I’m gonna say, 10? Maybe 11? - I’m 20 now haha, i can’t say I’ve ever been bored on any content you’ve moved into. Every ‘era’ is enjoyable for me to watch. :D

I've been sorta keeping up for a while, i think i subscribed during my anime phase and am a casual viewer. Its been really fun to see how you've grown and gotten more comfortable just sharing what you enjoy! :D

I love your new content so much !!!

I haven’t watched your videos sense 2018 but i am happy to see your channel evolve and change

I'll be honest. I'm not going to watch the toy/doll content, but I will stay subscribed as I like you and your personality, I loved your old pet content and I will probably rewatch that instead, and also if you drop any news about your pets. Thanks for all the amazing videos you've made and I wish you and your animals all the best in the future.

I've been around since the mlp videos and i have grown to like these newer videos so i know i'll be sticking around soda

I’m really liking your newer style of videos! I really enjoyed the megamind review.

You're an amazing person. The way you explained yourself was the exact way i would. Most KZfaqrs can't find the line between pleasing others vs ourselves. We are here for you! Not the specific content. I love everything I've seen you do. We even love the vlogs and day in the life. Have you made a video on what a typical day looks like for you? You could film a rock and make it sound pleasant. And your cocatiel on your shoulder cleaning itself had me laughing. Ive been dealing with alot of health issues i was so happy to see a video like this ❤ Keep being you

It's ok! I love your channel so much!!!

I also had to step back to enjoy my dolls again(although I haven't done doll videos in ages) but ive enjoyed watching your now doll content so please continue to do what you love, Soda!

Ive been watching since the yum soda days, so honestly its fun to see it go full circle. I do love the pet videos but id enjoy anything youd put out!

Im a huge monster high fan and doll collector so this change was literally perfect for me , i was so excited when you started posting monster high content !

I love that we still get to see some of your lovely pets and I’m glad you follow the content creation path that makes you happy. 🥰

Not too much into to toy videos myself, will maybe watch a couple. But if you uploaded something abour your animals, I'll be there & stay subbed! If you feel like you want to an idea to could be to when something happens with your pets, you get a new one you can upload that, you feed them, upgrade or change their enclosure. I'd love to see your life even if that's just one video every year ^^ Also I gotta say the ambience of your house I absolutely love. Have you ever considered making ambience with all your animals making sounds? It's one of the best things about your videos for me, the animal background ambience :3

Watched sine the Yumsoda days, will stay for the future too, I like pet and collection videos, you do what makes you happy :)

I’ve been watching since the animal jam music videos lol, definitely going to stick around. It’s funny how our interests changed so similarly as the years have gone by. I love how unique your videos have always been and how you’re not afraid to do what you love to keep the content fun and good. Excited for this new era, and the others to come! ❤️

I've been watching your videos for years, ever since I was very little, and you made your MLP story series and comedy shorts (like The Line, Alone, Relatable and Rainbow Factory) I've followed you ever since! It's been so cool seeing how far you've come, and I'm so excited to see where your journey goes next. Toys, animation, or animals, I'll love your content no matter what

Thanks Soda! I first found you through the animal videos! You really helped me be more aware of the kind of content I watched and I thank you a lot for that. KZfaq careers take out a lot on mental health without having to watch disturbing content. I'm glad you are doing what is best for you!

i love all your videos soda. Ive been here since you did mlp and you made me want to start collecting. You also made me super in to frogs and birds which ive gotten my own and i have to thank you. Watching your doll content is so fun and i can tell how happy you are with making it. Im not going anywhere just please always make sure you make content that you like and you enjoy. tysm for being my comfort youtuber thats got me through hard times

Happy birthday!🎉🎁🎂

I’m looking forward to the new era of Soda! I know how taxing educating people about proper care of exotic and domestic animals can be. I work with a reptile rescue and have worked for pet stores and it’s taxing for sure. Reptile people in America can be so CRAZY but there are many who do care for the husbandry and animals. Definitely understand your reasons and I’ve been super into your more recent shorts and I love dolls and figurines so please do what will be the most fulfilling for you🤘🏻🫶🏻

I came for the animal videos a while ago since i love animals but your doll videos are great too !!

I love all your videos. girl make anything you want I watch for the personality 🎉

I’ve subbed to this channel because of pet videos and I’ll always support ur channel whether it’s abt Toys or pets ❤

I'm not really into dolls and collectibles so I'll probably not watch many of that sort of video, but I ain't gonna unsubscribe. Please make whatever content you want to make!

I found your videos because I was really into pet care videos for a while, but my main passion is doll collecting so when I found out you also collected dolls I was so excited! You have such an awesome collection and I’ve been loving the new content.

I loved your megamind video and did find you for the tiktok reactions but I love your new content too! It's definitely understandable to feel drained after seeing negative pet content for way too long, so I can't blame you for it, but I'm really excited for your next content! Take care of yourself first :)

The algorithm has not been showing me your videos, I'm excited to watch all these videos!!

I have been here ever since the mlp videos, ill always stick around no matter the type of content you make! Make what makes you happy!

A bit sad but good that Pet Videos won't stop completely. Also enjoy Videos about animated Shows and similar Stuff, so it could be worse. Really hope it won't be as difficult for me to find a Apartment where I can move with my Cockatiels, because I just need to get out of here and also don't have enough Space for a better Cage. 🤭 Was watching this with one of my Cockatiels on my Head

I ever come for your videos and your love with animals. Im rarely on KZfaq now but, you are one of my comfort youtubers. You need to feel joy in creating content too. Stay healthy and well Soda !

Soda, some of us aren't just here for the pet videos, some of us aren't here for content, some of us are here for you ❤️

Omg soda I have watched you ever since I was a kid I enjoy the videos you make

yeah ive been watching u sense i was around 8, still love ur vids lol

been here since the pony era and have stuck around ever since! i will always enjoy the content you do because whatever you love to do im gonna love too. ive been loving the recent content and cant wait to see more to come!

The ANIMAL Crossing Let's Go To the City and New Leaf music made me cry. It was fun watching your vids. Even if I won't stay subscribed, please continue your content to make others smile~

I followed you since your pet videos because they were (literally) my childhood 😭😭 but i love your recent videos and just love your personality in general so i ofc will stay

That's amazing you're able to step back and see how the videos have started to affect you when its something you're so used to doing in your day to day life. Even more amazing that you have the confidence as a youtuber and person to be able to stand up for yourself and stop/change what you're doing in order to better your well being. Inspiring!

Although I haven’t been subscribed for a very long time I do completely understand your decision! I loved the animal videos but I also love the toy and collecting videos, as a collector myself.

came from your mlp videos, stayed through the toy reviews, animation memes, pets and now ill def sit through your future endeavors in the toy community once again :)

Your content evolves as you do, you know many of us have been here since the beginning and through all of these changes, and your content will continue to change as your interests do. keep doing what you enjoy, making the content that you love. we’ll still be here for you supporting and enjoying the vids you make

Been here since mlp haha I still enjoy watching your videos and even if you change your content I’ll still support uu! 💕

I really enjoyed your animal videos, especially the tiktok ones (watched them all), I can’t say I’ll be as interested in all of your new content but I liked watching the Bluey video and the MLP infection video so would be cool to see more videos like that. Im not into the doll stuff at all tbh but I wish you luck on those videos I just hope there’s still the occasional pet video if you ever feel like making one again as no other pet channels I’ve found are as enjoyable to watch

I liked your pet videos, and I like your toy/doll videos equally since both of these things are also my hobbies 😄

I think I found you for your cockatiel videos (I lost mine on a rainy day while moving this year... I hope he's safe, wherever he is... ;_;), but I also remember watching your cute happy meal toy video! I love the toy and doll content. I'm sorry you got pressured to give medical advice and see so many heartbreaking videos. Good luck with happier stuff!! I hope the latebloomer tadpoles have a good winter. ^^

honestly i dont mind since ive been watching you since you've been called yum soda and im a huge fan of doll/toy collections i just ordered a ever after high doll lmao

I mean hey, I've been here since 2015, and whatever content you make, it's always been awesome. We'll be happy as long as you are, so do what works best for you. You've got this!

I've been watching your contents since your very first MLP contents and I very enjoyed them so much even though you changed your contents there and there I'm still sticking with your channel because I truly enjoyed them. We grow up more mature and might want to try and invest in our new interest so I respect your decision in changing your contents multiple times. Maybe part of it is because I look up to you 'cause you're only 1 year older than me and even share the same birthday! I know it sounds crazy that a person who is only a year younger than you looks up to you so much but the reason is you kinda motivates me to be more responsible like you (My life is a mess lol) . Anyway I just want to take this opportunity to say I that I really love your channel and I really happy for you that you can still continue your passion in toy collecting! (I felt very bad for you at that time when you gave away your collection and stop collecting toys for a while because I used to be in that situation before too...)

I subscribed to your channel because i enjoyed your reaction videos and learning more about animals. I'm a bit too old for toys and dolls, so i don't think i'll be watching your videos all that much anymore. But i guess I'll stay subscribed just incase you make another video involving animals one day..

For me it wasn’t even the animal content so much as your passion. Your personality and humour are what make it worth it for me so whatever content you make going forward I’m sticking around. Just do what makes you happy!🩷

ive been here since your mlp toy videos, ill stick around lol

I have so much respect for you, realising what's not for you is just as important as finding what you love. Some youtubers have been doing educational reactions and having to repeat themselves over and over for yrs, I'm glad you didn't force yourself down that path. You made the impact you needed to, everyone I know hates that dodopet channel. Luxeria, who has a reaction channel, shifts and flips the videos in a way to avoid copyright. Bluey is great 😊

I love collecting dolls myself ( lalaloopsie dolls too be precise) so im so glad a creator i already like and has good values is featuring this content. you have probably seen dollightful you should get some less loved dolls and try and do them up i gave it a try by sewing new clothes honestly was quite fun even if it didnt turn out super great lol.

Its your channel, you should do what makes you happy ❤

Was here for the toy content then for the animation then pets and I’m still staying now ❤

i did learn lots from you about bell frogs, i enjoyed your zoo trip/kiwi vids i also appreciate your other hobbies and the doll detail - im an artist so i like knowing what features stand out, wishing you all the best pet vid maker to pet hoarder for clicks isn't great

i totally get it. i made exactly 1 video on rehabbing a canary years ago at this point and i still get comments asking me to be a vet for their birds. i do this as a day job as well so the idea of doing it 24/7, no pay, is exhausting. i'm already exhausted doing it as a day job lol. i think animals are just one of those topics that people are extremely emotionally tied up in, unfortunately. low pressure videos about low pressure hobbies seems to be the only way to create a more easy-going community. i've been participating in more easygoing hobbies like plants and asmr and baking lately and it's been really nice. i hope not only the channel flourishes, but i hope you flourish as well !! edit: i also own a lot of birds and have thought about making content on them- and honestly could not think of anything interesting to put online 😂 i have an instagram that is basically just a curation of photos i like. i post MAYBE once every 2 months. i think part of the issue is that when you live with your pets for so long, you no longer find them an 'interesting' thing lol. hard to be passionate about creating content that you don't find interesting

I love animals, too, and I learned a lot from your animal videos. But I also like dolls and dollmaking and I'm happy for you to get to make the things that you want to make. Everyone's interests change over time. I'm glad you're following your interests and passions and keeping your art sincere and meaningful.

My hyperfixations are dolls and animals so I’m here for all the dollie content !

i had a red ear and i let it free rome sometimes in my bed room and she would crawl up my beding into my bed and hide under my pillow- and cold mornings crawl up feel her climb over my feet so funny- she was something- i had her for years then got infection so sad- but she was teriffic i do miss her-

love your videois

If you like doing the film side of things maybe you can make cute mini comics/animations about your pets? You’d still be doing pet related things but also be creative as well. Just a suggestion, love your channel & videos no matter what you do ❤

One of the reasons I gave up as it takes a long to to do stuff for the video and then to keep coming up with new stuff 2-3 times a week, not easy.

I've always loved your pet videos. And I'm really going to miss them. It's sad to lose a favorite youtuber. I definitely won't be watching anymore since I have no interest in toy videos. It really sucks. But oh well. Do what makes you happy. If you ever do a pet video in the future I'll be back to watch it.

Impeccable work! I am delighted with your talent and professionalism! Keep delighting us with your masterpieces! 👏🌟

Hey, Littlest pet shop re-released the old ones from early 2000's if you're interested in doing a vid on them

Do your birds mess with your collection? My birds haven't gone into my office where my Monster High Dolls are yet. Also I love your Fright Dolls video! I only have Ghoulia and wasn't sure if I wanted more but now I'm tempted...

Hey man don't worry, we're chill, your laid back attitude and personality is why I think most of us are here, you especially help me de-stress. ❤

I started watching a few years ago when you were making the TikTok reaction videos! Your videos helped me learn so much about animal welfare and pet care (so much so that it led me to changing what I was studying in college haha!) It’s always been such a treat to see your videos new and old! They all have such a cozy vibe and they’ve accompanied me as I work on countless drawings. I have been loving the doll/toy videos as well! They’re reignited my interest in toy collecting. Thank you Soda! 🫶🫶

Hi soda! I understand when you run out of video ideas trust me I really do so I have some fish themed videos ideas you can do! 1: make a list of the best plants for aquariums, this would be really helpful for future/wannabe aquascapers like me! 2: make a list of infections and diseses fish can get and talk about how to treat them, this would be a very very VERY helpful video for just about all fish owner as sadly our fishy friends do get sick at some point in there lil lives :( 3: buy some ami ami toys and review them! Ami amis are very cute tiny lil crochet toys and I would be very happy if you reviewed them :D 4: BETA FISH BREED TIERLISTTTTTTT. 5: bring, back, animal, jam, game, play, PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE MAKE A NEW ACCOUNT START OVER AND SEE HOW YOU LIKE THE GAME! :DD that's some of the ideas I remember LMAO hope these help as I want your channel to thrive and do well :D also goodluck reaching 600k!

Came for the Animal videos, staying for the MLP and doll content. I've never been into dolls, but I've recently taken up a side hobby of rerooting to fix some old childhood toys of mine. Much respect to the doll custom community for their tutorials. Plus I love listening to folks being passionate about things that they love 💖

Hey! So you know I really enjoy content about bootleg toys and I loved your older videos on them. I think it'd be really fun if you did some cheapy/bootleg toys now and then, only if you want to of course.

Fun fact! Hopefully this will cheer you up, two male penguins found an abandoned egg and adopted it! It was extremely adorable and they ended up mating for life :D

You ever thought on personalizing Dolls.

Happy lil borb

I had to step away from your videos because so many involved tiktoks and other things showing people practically abusing animals, I was spiraling into bad depression and it wasn't helping. and then you made a video talking about dolls, and as an australian doll collector I was so happy to see an upbeat video from you that I related too. I'm glad you stepped away from all the negative videos for your own mental health

Ɓeen here since mlp still love mlp and toys

you know lot tv shows have only x amount shelf life cause theres only so much information can be shared or too repetitive- orsomething so shows end- and i can see there only so much available information on any animal- so videos kind over lap in same topic or content- and comes a time to change- but good to see you-but u could do dangerious toys for kids under 4 or something idk?

It's fine

if i like your videos, im gonna watch them, why would i care that theyre not a specific type? nobody should be upset! your videos are SICK
