How to grow a Sims YouTube channel?
Hi, I make videos on YouTube and was wondering how I could grow my channel and any feedback/ideas you have. I upload 2-3 times a week, I upload in HD and have a good quality microphone, but my channel...

I'm neither a youtuber, nor an expert on the subject. My feedback should be taken in that light.
The name of your channel, "Thomas TV," won't help until you gain a following. People don't know who you are, and the channel name has no obvious connection to your content. I'm not saying that it's a bad name, just that it doesn't draw any attention for a small/new channel.
Your content is good in terms of quality/ variety. I didn't dig into it exhaustively, but I checked out a few videos. I'm getting a "more of the same" impression, meaning that there is nothing that really distinguishes your content from the vast amount of Sims 4 content already on Youtube. I think people will enjoy what you have, but not necessarily come looking for it specifically. If you can find a niche that differentiates your content it might help draw more views.
Keep doing what you're doing, and self-promote at every opportunity. Do collabs on other people's channels, and if you can do livestreams with more established youtubers, that will help you gain some recognition. I don't quite know how youtube algorithms work, but I'm fairly certain that more views make it more likely that you'll show up on the front page of a search. Very few people look beyond that. If you can figure out how to use keywords in your titles and descriptions, you might be able to use that to your advantage. I don't really know enough to give any suggestions, but its a topic for research. Talk to other youtubers to see what worked for them.
I'd also suggest remaining active here in the forums. By linking and promoting your videos here you can gain some cross traffic.
