When you get hundreds, even thousands, of YouTube comments every day, it becomes impossible for the creator to keep up with responding to all of them. So, should you reply to the comments you can during the time that you designate for it, or should you hire someone else to reply to most of the comments under your account, but using their name? And then you personally reply to the comments that require your direct attention?

Personally, I've always replied to comments here myself because I enjoy the connection I have with you, but I can't reply to every one and I've just been ok with that. Evan Carmichael, however, has his wife reply to most of his comments for him instead.

Which is the better option? Leave some comments unanswered or hire someone to reply to them all for you?

I took the question to Blab for a quick discussion and here's what we decided. What do YOU think?
