I mean if Doki’s success encourages people to go indie, I’d personally see that as a positive. Especially if they feel their agency isn’t providing the same value as when they first joined. What concerns you about this?

Dokibirds success was kinda lightning in a bottle. A talent that greatly benefits from an agency might leave thinking they can repeat Dokis success, only to fail and end up worse off than when they were still with the agency. That is my concern.

I see where you’re coming from, but when I also see Mint, Sakuna, Sunnysplosion, and Dooby sharing similar or greater levels of success compared to their PLs, I feel less worried. Not all of them get a shoutout in their YouTube recap like Doki, but they do seem to be thriving.
