RE: DTube - YouTube Demonetizes MILLIONS Of Channels! - What You Can Do! (DTube & Steemit For The Win!)

in #steemit7 years ago

They demonetized most of my vids for not being advertiser friendly and then wouldn't review them unless I got a certain number of hits. Now I got the email they are going to to demonetize my whole channel too. I'm not going to put in a bunch of work on something then have some automated system say it's not worthy so I stopped putting up new videos a while a ago. This latest e mail is the nail in the coffin. Steemit there are no surprises, no big brother censorship. I would rather put in the effort here, I have done way better financially here too. I thought youtube saying the whole topic of Mandela Effects not being advertiser friendly was heavy handed, it's about as mild a conspiracy theory as you can get, but we got lumped in with racists and holocaust denial. I am kind of sour because I always thought my old youtube vids would make me money years later, I kind of feel I made them for nothing.
But Dtube seems like a sweet alternative!

Sort:  

Right on Dtube being a sweet alternative. Exactly what I've been thinking too with that yellow icon I always get on my language lesson channel. I've always been a good girl. It's annoying getting it. Dtube would be another great site to try, but for me only if I could successfully upload a video as I am getting an error for some reason.

What's your channel?

I am giving up on it but it's https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRV-lJI1KGhWSspVVnDym3g

My most popular video was a conspiracy video about Justin Trudeau being Fidel Castro's son. It was fun but I'm not doing it for free

Just watched your latest vid. You do good work!

THANKS, I'll check it out

It was too good to be true for a long time. Now at least we have Dtube or Steemit to express ourselves and make some bucks if we are lucky enough.

I'm slowly changing all my YT video settings to unlisted or private. That way the videos can not go viral, and YT wont have the ability to make money without also dealing with me. They did not even send me an e-mail, I had to find out on DTube :/
Edit: I make music videos; no controversial stuff at all.

Steem on mate. Have success.
