Moving My Videos To Dtube

in dtube •  7 years ago 

My channel got demonetized too. Its like YouTube hates small channels. First with the 10K rule, now needing 4,000 hours of watch time and 1,000 subscribers. Have they ever thought that it may be impossible for some channels to get that many subs

My two main concerns are;

  1. It doesn't solve the issue of "bad actors" or inappropriate content. Look at Logan Paul, he keeps posting awful shit and still has monetization. Meanwhile, I haven't received a single strike for copyright claims or (actual claims) of videos "not suitable for advertisers" after two and a half years.

  2. Now that I'm demonetized, what incentive does youtube have to promote (or even suggest) my videos? So, how will I hit their requirements...or how will somebody just starting out get a channel going?

I get that they need to have a place that advertisers want to come to, but content creators (who are the ones bringing in those ad dollars) need to get compensated also. The power needs to be in the hands of content creators, companies are taking unfair advantage of them and reeling in all of the money for their hard work.

YouTube demonetized Logan's channel a while back

From what I've read, his channel was never fully demonetized (specific videos maybe), they just removed him from the "google preferred" platform.

This platform allowed advertisers to place ads on specific high performing videos or target ads based on specific youtuber's videos. There is one maker channel I watch and it is weird to see a pre-roll ad for a welding company and at the end of the video they say, "thank's for watching, now on to Jimmy's video!"
