"I’m not jealous. I’m just genuinely happy that the skit industry, which is filled with a lot of depression, is about to be less saturated," he wrote.

Sydney also confessed he was among those who discouraged Carter from streaming. He, however, added that he was delighted the streamer proved him wrong.

"Congratulations to my brother @carterefe. Two days ago you made history. I’m so proud of you. Funny how I was one of the people who discouraged you from streaming. But in the end, you spit in my face, which makes me happy because it proves one thing: you are truly a creator who follows his instincts," he wrote.

He also sent a message to skit makers who are struggling in the industry, advising them to consider streaming.

"For those of you in skit making who are depressed and forced to live fake lives, why not try out streaming? It might just work for you. If Carter can, then you can do it too. Also, it’s a new field, so this is the best time to hop on it before it gets saturated in 2026. And to those who still want to remain skit makers: I promise you with my life. I will improve, grow, and do everything in my power to make the skit industry a better place and a more sustainable career choice. Note: I’m not talking to everyone. Much love," he added.
