YouTube's being stupid again.

[Gatuno]

I remember back in 2012 how most small and medium YTbers (mainly on the video game and movie side) weren't satisfied with the then new policies at the time, and threatened a mass exodus to Dailymotion. All of them were talking shit, and not a single one moved their channel or platform. After that huge performance, nearly everyone would go on like they never said anything, "was just joking", or put a "I never said/promised that. I said it might be a possibility". The idiots in charge ain't the only problem with YT. A lot of these user can't commit for shit.

Exactly! Everybody knows that youtube policies are always horrible, but no one wants to use the alternative sites.

I've heard that her replacement was basically her understudy, so the chances of any meaningful change are about nil.

I was almost expecting a "Who's That Pokémon?" skit, but this works too.

Another year, another stupid policy change from YouTube.

Recently, YouTube put in a new policy that will demonetize videos that have swear words in the first 8 seconds.

YouTube has a new monetization policy regarding profanity. Creators are unhappy with the rollout. - Tubefilter

A change to YouTube's monetization policy has drawn complaints from its community. As creators deal with a fresh wave of yellow dollar signs, the platform

YouTube is so lucky it doesn't have any real competition, or nobody would use it.

That specific one isn't just in YouTube. The broader internet has been becoming more sanitized since past year for the advertisers' sake (specially if it it's social media with an Apple app).
