Youtube has some serious issues...

Legendary, thanks for speaking on this man truly.

The keeping kids safe thing should be pretty easy given that THERE’S AN ENTIRE DIFFERENT APP CALLED YOUTUBE KIDS

"To keep kids safe" Youtube KIDS aside, since when are corporations and creators responsible for parenting? If your kid watches something it shouldn't for their age, its the responsibility of the parents. Any parent that disagrees with this is straight up a danger to their own kids. You don't go to a knife-manufacturer complaining that their stuff isn't safe for kids, do you?

Without their creators, YouTube is nothing. When it comes to these sorts of symbiotic relationships, transparency is necessary.

with the current sniperwolf situation, I can say this video has aged like a fine wine

The fact that Cory had to avoid saying self harm and suicide because he was scared the video would get taken down while Jack says it so nonchalantly cause he doesn’t have to worry about it. I’m not saying anything negative on either of them, it’s just funny where you see the blatant differences in how they approach their videos and how they’ve learned to be because of YouTube’s treatment of them.

YouTube: “We’re removing the dislike button.” Community: “We don’t want that.” YouTube: *Removes it anyways* YouTube: “Keep content family friendly and don’t violate our rules.” Also YouTube: *Allows ads that violate the same rules they tell content creators not to break* YouTube: “Scams are not allowed on our platform.” Also YouTube: *Allows scam bots to run rampant throughout the comment section* YouTube: “We restricted your video.” Creator: “Why?” YouTube: *Refuses to elaborate* Something needs to be done.

at some point, its gonna become the feeling of “why even take the risk” because of how youtube cant communicate properly with the people that make it it what it is

You're a superhero man 🦸‍♀️

"To keep children safe..." Children have youtube for kids. Case closed shut. The overdone censorship of regular youtube content is absolutely ridiculous.

Plus, like Charlie said, Cory is as user friendly as it gets. He doesnt say any curse words, he censors himself, so logically his videos would do better with ad revenue and more viewers. Yet himself and his videos are suffering more than bigger youtubers that consistantly curse.

The problem with censorship is that it is always subjective. Youtube getting bad press is exactly what it deserves.

As a small creator that got my entire channel demonetized and see other people that make similar content to me still posting freely and monetizing… this message is so important for upcoming creators YouTube’s system is so unfair it needs to be talked about more

It's actually a bit weirder. Here is what happens at YouTube and why they won't tell you anything: - Each Creator is actually assigned a hidden "grade" which specifies how safe for ads they are. - There is a global algo list of words that trigger immediate flags. Certain words and slang used will have higher chances of triggering the flag. I've tested this extensively as I just do tech content, but I was intrigued by it when I had a video get flagged as my content is about as safe as you can get. So why doesn't YouTube tell everyone this? - The words that trigger the immediate flag could come off as discrimination of many minority groups and is how the entire algo is built to protect the younger audience. - If everyone knew their "grade" then it could be argued in court that YouTube willfully sensors content and can control the content on their platform. This has massive legal ramifications that could hold Alphabet "Google" liable for the content hosted here. This is why we are left in the dark and why they can't tell us much.

You know the YouTube problem is getting serious when Jacksepticeye has to speak up...

Just realized that ever since this video I haven’t been recommended your stuff. No wonder I haven’t seen your videos in my feed, I think this just confirms it. Shape up YouTube.

This needs to change. Made respect for speaking about it. I second guess every video now too.

The thing that got me about Mark's "try not to laugh" strike... they struck the wrong video. They didn't check which video had the "offensive" clip; they removed the video mentioned by both YouTubers, when it was the next video in the series that had the clip in it. It was a total knee-jerk reaction to the complaint raised; they didn't even check if it was the right video that they were taking down.

My theory is that you got age restricted later because you get more views, youtube pushes more ads in that short time in the millions, which is quick cash gained there, but Evelyn's channel is smaller, so lesser userbase, so less money made, so hit faster.

This is why I respect Jacksepticeye as a youtuber because he's willing to talk about these kinds of things unlike other bigger creators
