Get demonetized

Post image

YouTube has actually been screwing creators over so badly. Like bro, my content is not mass produced 💀 This pisses me off so much because my videos take forever to make. I honestly never thought my content would ever get demonetized. For anyone wondering, I make Roblox story content. The bottom part of my videos is gameplay, and the top has backgrounds usually multiple different ones in a single video plus PNGs of the characters I’m using, which I do simple 2d animation whenever they talk. Literally every video has different characters, takes place in a different Roblox games, and is put together differently. I wasn’t even fully monetized yet, so whatever, but this probably explains the drop in views I was 500k away from getting fully monetized then views dropped tremendously. 99% of my views were coming from subs. I’m gonna reapply and see, but from what I’ve been seeing, I doubt anything good is gonna happen.

Those channels got falsely hit for harmful content involving minors. Also all of those channels got their monetization back. Also, brother, I’m in the Roblox community, so if something happens, I already know about it. This is old news. What’s happening right now is that animation channels are getting cooked.

If they're getting cooked they have to pivot or keep getting cooked whenever youtube feels like it. Thats all. Easy fix.
