    Any reason for spending money renting office space instead of building it in your home (assuming this is a bootstrap) ? Also, good luck with the vlog. IMO, the key to grow subscriber base is to add some useful info along with project updates, like some tidbit about a tech problem you solved uniquely or some new tech you learned and keep the updates consistent and regular. There was this indie game dev series (I think it was called ThinMatrix), who documented his whole video game dev journey and I won't be surprised if many of his initial customers came from his devlog audience.

      Thanks! Yes, two reasons: 1) I can focus more when I’m out of my home and 2) because of the studio
