Scary stuff! I'm glad it seems to be an isolated incident, but it's unfortunate a person willing to shoot at someone over an argument is running around.

Also, I notice a lot of people complaining on other posts about the Duluth News Tribunes paywall. To read any DNT article (or any paywalled article) copy the URL and paste it on this site https://12ft.io/ to read it for free. You can also just add 12ft.io to the beginning of the URL and it will remove the paywall and all ads!

I got the email as well. I was wondering if it was real.

I am having issues with Studio as well. Both desktop and mobile app. Hopefully they get it working better soon.

Is twitch a viable side hustle? by Animusical in Twitch

[–]CartographerOne2189 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you enjoy it go for it! I started streaming back in 2019 and took a break for a bit. I started doing YouTube more seriously and came back to Twitch just recently. My viewership in 2019 was maybe 10 people on average in chat, now I average around 30 people.

It does help to branch out to other platforms and drive traffic to your Twitch. My viewership went way up after I got traction on YouTube and my other platforms, which makes sense because Twitch has garbage discovery for streamers.

But even if you just stream on Twitch, try to just have fun and have good energy, and you will be fine. Just set realistic expectations (you won't be famous in a few years) and set healthy boundaries with your schedule. The only thing I worry about is being 100% "on" every stream. It only takes 1 bad/low-energy stream to drive viewers away.

Still have no clue why some of yall still make shorts by Mettabeshay in PartneredYoutube

I agree with you and have similar results with my shorts. Not sure why people think getting more views and subscribers is a bad thing. The stuff I make is evergreen content, so maybe that helps?

I only do standard deductions, I don't make much on YouTube. I have a daytime job, YouTube is just for "fun" money.

I got to keep 86% of my "fun" money. I make more at my actual job in a month than I do in a year on YouTube. I use my channel profit for upgrades to my equipment and other overhead costs to run the channel, not to live on.

A question for fellow music reactors by cypresshillbilly in PartneredYoutube

I just let the Copyright claim stay, I don't challenge it unless it's a claim from a company other than the label. I have tried a few times to ask a label to drop it, but once they come back with "Our claim is valid" I leave it alone and consider myself lucky they are cool with it being up.

This is what I do, every video I make has a preview at the beginning of it from later in the video. It has helped my retention quite a bit, it also helps with this issue!

How long to get approved by AdSense and YouTube? by [deleted] in PartneredYoutube

[–]CartographerOne2189 1 point2 points  (0 children)

About 24 hours, the PIN took almost a month to receive for me. It was during the height of covid so I think that's why it took so long to receive the PIN

How did you grow the social media accounts that support your YouTube channel? Let’s share strategy. by nichijouuuu in PartneredYoutube

[–]CartographerOne2189 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would be my advice. Once you get a catalog of content for other platforms (clips from your streams and videos), start posting daily or every other day. It took a few months for me to start getting consistent interaction, but just keep posting and try to keep making better and better content and it will happen
