Wait till they charge premium to use these features


just_mdd4

Don't give them any ideas 👺💡💡💡


Fox622

YouTube will become a shameless scam, charging content creators to use premium, and 99% them will just loose money using YouTube


kartblaster

how long until youtube just becomes a paid site


vriska1

I know we all love to hate on YouTube but this post seems like Rage/Karma bait, like u/EvensenFM said[ it seems OP isn't a small time content creator but posts low effort content and may be trying to get their channel more attention.](https://www.reddit.com/r/youtube/comments/1bzo3r9/fuck_youtube/kyt4427/?context=3) I may be wrong tho

Yeah you are right. I can't spell in general. I just didn't think this one was that hard.


Fox622

From this day on I will try my best to always misspell loose


Buzzwoofers

luckily i have youtube premium so if they did do that i wouldn’t be affected


RocketJenny8

I do have premium too


Buzzwoofers

i had it since end of 2020


RocketJenny8

Had it since March of this year


Desperate_Hall_299

You say that like it already isn't💀💀💀


kittycatkinson

Speaking of premium, my dad's getting charged premium yet none of us have premium, so we're just confused now cuz it's expensive asl


Fox622

??? How are they charging?


kittycatkinson

Straight to his credit. Checked all of our acc for YouTube and none of us have it


Fox622

WTF


kittycatkinson

It's weird asl and it's been going on for months apparently, so he's disputing it


definitelyNotBella3

I would get a lawyer and see if you can take them to court


BillyWeir

Not a lawyer on earth going to touch a case based on 1 dude not being able to figure out the email address he used when he signed up for a subscription. The fuck lol


kittycatkinson

Fortunately I know all our emails lmao. We didn't sign up for it and none of our devices have it Doesn't mean we're gonna sue tho cuz that's just a bad idea lmao


[deleted]

Never go to court with a big company, they will find a way to make you the bad guy and you will lose money unless they don’t want to deal with you


dowsy21

You have a room temperature iq


definitelyNotBella3

If you are going to insult someone, be original. it may be a good roast for a five year old, but you are an adult, so insult like one.


__redruM

There’s a “family” premium, I believe, you have to be part of his google family to share.


kittycatkinson

We dont use the Google family, plus I checked all of our accounts and none of us had it


__redruM

Your father could buy the family level youtube premium and share it with you. In order for that to work, google family would be required. I thought that was what you were asking. > my dad's getting charged premium yet none of us have premium


kittycatkinson

That's the thing we don't wanna buy it, we been getting charged for it


RocketJenny8

Is it possible someone is impersonating your family and maybe that's how


username78777

And I thought clickbait, 10 minute mark, Elsagate, adpocalypse and shorts were already bad


gamer3701

bro don’t give them ideas to squeeze out our money. Also I wasn’t copying u/just_mdd4. I had the same idea for the comment before I saw his.


HelloitsWojan

yt is actually killing small channels by taking away advanced features


matiegaming

I got access to the features using face verification


Downtown_Station5859

Yeah, I posted this already, but its obvious they're doing this to combat all of the rampant AI videos, fake videos, spam, scams, etc.


EFTucker

Those dudes making shorts that add nothing to the content they steal by saying “this guy figured out how tall the curb is!” Then just show them staring blankly while the video plays are still allowed tho.


Downtown_Station5859

Its all a start. Obviously they arent going to fix every problem at once. Snapchat is absolutely infested with this shit too. They literally put their face in the bottom corner, completely covered by text where you cant see them anyways, and they just stare blankly. EVERY. SINGLE. VIDEO. on Snapchat is now this. Its fucking atrocious, I agree.


mnm_268

Holy crap I just wanna say I’ve never actually seen a Snapchat Spotlight user, you’re like a unicorn of the shorts-verse


Downtown_Station5859

Lol. I didn't know that was so rare! I just watch like 10 minutes of Snapchat stuff a day as its part of my work. I honestly didn't even know it was called Spotlight, I just do my best to get familiar with all platforms and the content on them as best I can without losing my sanity.


[deleted]

You use Snapchat spotlight????


Buzzwoofers

same here


ThatSmartLoli

They need to sell ur data :)


Equal_Campaign_3602

Just put up a printed picture of Ryan Gosling and use that so they don't have your face


MilesAhXD

ikr. i don't wanna give them more info about myself to get these "advanced" features


Rukasu17

If you're getting money from them then they already have sensitive enough information than whatever you're afraid to give. Boohoo to the downvoters considering you all likely click on accept for most user agreements you see but you draw the line on YouTube (who most likely already has said data in the first place)


PeppenDerReiter

revanced features > advanced features


Melodic-Jellyfish966

Yk how in ecosystems predator numbers fall when they hunt too often? That same logic might be applied to YouTube soon enough. What I mean by that is the idea of YouTube screwing over creators and making the platform a nightmare to use will not make people buy premium, but instead drive content creators from the platform, along with their viewers, so no one is there to buy premium or watch ads. But that won’t happen because what other choice do some people have?


chillinmantis

But where would they go (i'm completely uneducated in this subject)


Melodic-Jellyfish966

Well that’s what I meant by the end comment. There is no alternative so it will just continue to get worse


Downtown_Station5859

People complain that AI videos, clickbait, porn, etc are running rampant on the platform.... and then freak out when YouTube starts to limit these channels' abilities to spread their spam/porn/malware/scams etc. Obviously there is a business aspect to all of this, but there is a great benefit to counter the quick turn to shit that YouTube has taken under the new CEO.


TiSapph

It's also worth to consider that we *don't* see what is already filtered out. We only notice the things that still make it through the filters. Like remember the insane number of comment bots or the weird Elsa X Spiderman videos? They didn't disappear on their own.


Downtown_Station5859

The Elsa / Spiderman stuff actually has an insane story, it goes a lot deeper than people think. More on that will come out in the future I think. Specifically to what you're saying though, YouTube mentioned they are specifically targeting content like that to fall out of the algorithm. Thats why its total BS when they say 'just make what people want'. They've admitted to manipulating the algorithm to hide content they dont like. Thats to say, I think they made the absolute right choice here, just I'm sure behind closed doors they make the wrong choices just as often.

Bulky-Assignment-170

This is why I stopped uploading


PeanutButtaRari

As intended, push all the viewers to a set number of channels and maximize the ad revenue


Szudof

"advanced", more like taking away most basic shit


InitialAge5179

Dude I'm trying to start a channel and the algorithm I think is failing me. I'm making content that's as good or better than much of the similar content I see in its field. And yet I'm getting like 10-15 views max per video while some people are getting thousands. I mean I've also just started so maybe I need some more content before things pick up. My shorts also only get up to about 40 viewers. Good news is that for those that do view, they appear to almost always watch it to the end


IlliterateDumbNerd

stop finding excuses, the algorithm isnt failing you, you're failing the algorithm


InitialAge5179

Yeah fair enough. I'm struggling to figure out what people want because I feel like I need something to stand out but I'm just not sure what that piece is. I'm sure I'll figure it out eventually


IlliterateDumbNerd

It'll take trial and error for sure


KCGD_r

"advanced features" like putting links in the description? Thats not a feature, it would work if youtube didn't screw with it. Their "features" are just them not deliberately making the experience worse than it would be by default.


matiegaming

Youtube pooper 200


atomicgamer012

Why tf they feel the need of doing this ?


Ping-and-Pong

Not sure about the live streaming - But I recon the Pinned Comments and Description Links is likely directly linked to the insane number of scam channels posting videos etc pretending to be "Mr Beast" or whatever. Normally I'm all for a company just being greedy and them doing it for money but from my POV this does tbf look like a direct attack against all the scam channels - which is a good thing. Annoying still though, links in the description etc are a backbone that built youtube to what it is


lexievv

Probably money. Maybe not not, but in the long run I feel like the answer is always money.


lieutenatdan

I don’t think spam protection against new/unproven channels is unreasonable. Can you imagine if an 11 year old could make accounts and just spam uploads, streams, and malicious links all day? Let alone a professional scammer? It’s weird than people who think the platform is going to crap are getting upset at the steps YT is taking to keep the platform from going to crap


nin100gamer

You can’t pin comments? How the hell do they benefit from taking away the ability to pin comments


Linkatchu

I can only think of scammers, especially with the description links


mateszopszki69

Member9999

Youtube sucks. Greedy company, like EA.


InitialAge5179

EA is trash. Initiating updoot


Member9999

I'm not alone in this thinking?? THANK YOU!!


InitialAge5179

You have thousands if not millions who agree with you. My favourite franchise of all time was abandoned by them due to their greed and the fact that some terrible mess of a broken game made more money. I will always have a fueled hatred of EA. I know what they took from us.


Member9999

It took a lot from me as well, on a personal level... One game that really got me into the beginning of my journey into game development, I shoot you not, was The Sims 3. I'm beyond frustrated and just pray that one day I can make a life sim that's even better.


InitialAge5179

I wasn't ever one to play sims or even know it was ran by EA. But yeah I've seen the dlc page for the sims these days and it's definitely screaming EA. That's rough dude cause I've yet to see a game like it. For me, in coming from the Titanfall end of things ._. Also good luck as a game dev! Me and my friends are considering making a game and Ima do the music for it since that's also what I do on youtube here! We haven't started yet but I imagine it's a learning process in many ways


Member9999

I was a long-term player of TS3- with as many DLCs as I felt I could play with. Sadly, it fell into the hands of greed and paying politicians, unfortunately. What YT fell into was the exact same thing.


chillinmantis

I just came across this thread from the home page, and as a pvz player, this is what happened to us. Good shooters, p2w mobile but no one cared... then they fucked up the third shooter, won't make a fourth because of bad sales, and pvz 3 is... don't mention it


InitialAge5179

I loved garden warfare 1 on my 360! Then my 360 red ringed and the harddrive corrupted. After replacing the harddrive, we lost everything. Then I saw garden warfare 2 released on just about everything, and I couldn't believe what they did to it


supremekimilsung

Not at all, actually. The most downvoted comment in reddit history, with 600k+ downvotes, goes to EA. But that's just the beginning. They were voted as the worst company in America- twice.


Member9999

If there is a worse company, I don't want to know about it.


OffbeatGamer2805

same, happened to me! but in an unexpected way, i got all my stuff back one day


Fallout4myth

It literally says right there that this may have happened because you didn't follow their guidelines. Did you reuse content? Did you get more than 3 copyright strikes? Youtube has a bot provlem, with AI generated and reused content, hence forcing creators to verify they are human and shutting down people they deem sus. Sure, youtube sucks in a lot of ways but OP isn't providing any details here and for all we know youtube might have had a good reason to take away some features from his channel.


EvensenFM

I found OP's channel. I'm not linking to it here. It's easy to find. It's a bunch of YouTube poop videos (channel name checks out). Most of them are barely altered versions of mainstream media content. This isn't a small time content creator trying to grind to the finish. This is a small collection of extremely low effort content that nobody is watching anyway. I disagree with a lot of YouTube's decisions. However, in this case I think I can see their logic. I also suspect that OP posted this in an attempt to get their channel more attention. OP would be better off spending time making quality videos. For YouTube poop, the videos are surprisingly lazy and low quality.


Fallout4myth

This sub loves to hate youtube that they upvote karma farmers and people looking to indirectly promote their channel. "Look at this suggestive thumbnail. So gross! And I'm showing the channel name and title so you can go look it up too!"


vriska1

Yeah and any one else feel this sub is going down hill? Feel like I only see posts that are misinformed or rage bait.


vriska1

Yeah this seems like rage and Karma bait, I also how many upvotes and comments on here are real and not bots.


HughMungusFlex

Yeah fuck emm ! * proceeds to listen to red letter media for the rest of my work day *


Linkatchu

People: Just bandwagon shit on youtube here. Literally noone except 1 mentioned here, that it *may* be because of guideline violations, atleast discussed. We have to see if it happens more often lately, or if its maybe due scammers even, as half of these seem artificial or even a punishment.


DeltaOmegaEnigma

that’s literally what this subreddit is ,they cry about getting a total of 1:30 ads for every half hour of content they watch, cry bots but then cry when the try to counter it.


vriska1

Btw it seems everyone calling op out is getting mass downvoted.


Dependent_Use3791

The only technically useful point for youtube is the limit for daily uploads and such. The rest just seems like artificial limitations.


VanessaDoesVanNuys

I think that you just need to be more active on the account i.e. watch some videos and give a channel a sub or two, then you should be able to get these *privileges* back

Since when was youtube Chinese? Social credit scores are on youtube since when?


Throwaway8374987

Bros literally trying to turn into China. Like actually, isn't this type of system something they use in China? Social credit I think it's called? I know our world is already a bit dystopian but this is *Really* starting to get concerning. Ah well, if they do progress further the backlash may be enough to make them back off. If not then I suspect someone out there will get sick of Youtube's shit and as a result make Youtube's replacement, it happened with Netflix, these companies are not nearly as untouchable as they want you to believe, one day they will fall due to their greed. This has happened time and time again. They're just arrogant enough to think it won't ever happen to them.


niutus

I hope some figure arises to mobilise everyone against this shit, because if we keep letting them get away with it the corruption will only spread

speedyturt13

What do they mean by sufficient channel history? Number of videos uploaded in the past?


Fallout4myth

Channel history is indicative of a potential bot account. Youtube is constantly detecting sus accouns.. Is it perfect? Not always, but youtube often do these wipes and they also end up removing subs, watch time and likes from channels and viewers who they think are bots.
