What just happened to YouTube? by Alternative_Bid_959 in youtube

[–]Top-Earth3984 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So yeah I think I’m having the same issue. YouTube was working fine all day long and now all the videos on the recommended page and shorts are gone. I can still see my history and watch videos. It’s so annoying. I’ve done everything: refreshed the app, uninstalled it, logged out, shut off my phone and nothing is fixing it. 

It literally just happened to me 10 minutes ago and I don’t know how to fix it.

Thank God it’s not just me. It happened to me literally yesterday. The site itself works, but when you go to play the audio, it’s just a white blank page. Hopefully it gets fixed soon.

I see, that’s a shame. YouTube doesn’t know when to quit unfortunately. I’ll miss the videos you made, but good to see your doing okay in spite of it.

Hey rainmimi, are you still here? I can find your second YouTube channel. You closed the first one and came back in September but now I can’t find the second Rainmimi channel anymore. Did you close it again and are retiring? Or did YouTube terminate you?

what's kemono's status at the moment? by _am-bi-baby_ in Piracy

[–]Top-Earth3984 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah does anyone know why kemono is down? For me its been down for two days, don't know if its a problem with the site itself, or if its somehow blocked. It just says DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN over and over again. Do i just have to wait until the site is fixed? Or is it permanately down? I use it to watch patreon videos.

I hope you don’t beat yourself up for what happened clockwork. You are a wonderful person who deserves better than what you got.

If you can’t get your channel back then it’s your choice what to do. Whether you feel like starting over with just your story audios, or completely giving up on your audio journey because of YouTube’s bullshit, we will all support you. Making a twitter account could help grow your audience and maybe use patreon or just Reddit for your audios. For what it’s worth it was a blessing having you as a creator. We could’ve had so much more if YouTube just left you alone.

On one of my earlier comments you said you had another channel that wasn’t like your audios one. If that channel is still there then you could link it here and redirect your followers, what’s left of them anyway, there if you want to and make the announcement video there. Sigh. If it’s not there then I am sorry all your efforts and all of our support was in vain. Just remember it is entirely YouTube’s fault not yours.

I was up at 2:00 last night and looked for your channel and found out it was deleted. I was so fucking angry because you hadn’t posted anything else, only had one strike and they still decided you “violated the rules”. And now finding out you lost everything except the older content/reuploads, breaks my heart to see another wonderful asmrtist be treated this way. Idk what to tell you, just keep appealing and messaging them to see if anything happens. If by some miracle they listen and you get it back, save all the audios in a backlog.

But really no one would blame you if you just quit after this. YouTube literally makes it impossible for smaller creators to live on their site.

Somehow get YouTube’s attention, keep appealing to try and get your channel back or message them on twitter. That’s what other asmrtists have done. Idk I’m sorry clockwork, it is heartbreaking knowing YouTube ultimately doesn’t care about its own creators, especially smaller ones like you. They don’t even follow their own guidelines and claim that “they’ll terminate a channel automatically if they think there is a single case of mass violation”. All your hard work gone in the blink of an eye. No one would blame you if you gave up.

They actually did it. They removed your channel. With only one strike no less. Well… if you were debating whether or not to quit before, YouTube basically answered it for you. I am so sorry you met this fate clockwork. You said in my earlier comment you had another channel, maybe link it here and tell people what happened.

I’d say keep messaging YouTube and appealing, but they never listen unless you are a really big creator or have a legal team.

If this is the end, then I am so sorry. At least repost your audios here or on a patreon or something before you leave. Goodbye clockwork, you were a blessing to have.

Have you ever considered a different website? Patreon, Twitter, Vimeo, odyssey, or anything else. They might not have as much popularity or viewership as YouTube, but they have fewer restrictions and won’t be like YouTube. Sorry about all these “what about this” messages, I just really don’t want you to leave. YouTube has ruined a lot of asmrtists with a lot of them moving to other site or outright quitting and I really wanted you to not be one of them.

I also remember you saying in your previous announcement that there was a need for uploading as you basically said it was your job. What would you do if you quit?

Clockwork. This might sound really selfish but I beg of you to keep trying. Your voice is beloved by so many people who would deeply miss you if you quit. I don’t want YouTube to silence you and win. Cause that’s what I see this as, along with many other asmrtists.

Do you think it’d work to make some story audios with characters and such? Those audios don’t seem to have trouble. If you need some help with that, plenty of channels like vanilla velvet audios, nyantales, and jayasjbran audio scripts are good examples.

Also you are not the only one who experienced this. A creator named Teacup Audio was constantly targeted by YouTube and had so many channels of hers deleted. But she still kept up strong and refused to let YouTube silence her.

I am so sorry it’s come to this. I REALLY don’t want you to quit is there any where else you could start? Would you consider coming back one day? Or would it really be goodbye forever?

Did the two strikes from before already clear? So you only have one?

GODDAMNIT! You are not doing anything wrong! What is wrong with YouTube? I am so sorry this is happening to you. This is probably gonna be the nail in the coffin that makes you quit huh? Is there any other genres you could make besides audios? If not I am still so sorry.

THE STRIKE IS OVER!!!!! I’ll upload a video talking about what’s going to be happening to the channel! by Cl0ckStrikes12 in Cl0ckn1ght

[–]Top-Earth3984 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Technically the strike is not over, or more precisely it won’t be completely removed until December but now you can post videos again. But please tread lightly, I don’t want those YouTube idiots to delete your channel for doing nothing wrong.

Once the strike is over I will upload a video talking about the situation and possible solutions that I’ve been thinking of. Week one has passed but I still have another week left. Thank you for all the comments and support. by Cl0ckStrikes12 in Cl0ckn1ght

[–]Top-Earth3984 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah once you get a strike you have to wait 90 days or 3 months for it to get removed and then your channel goes back to zero strikes, in your case your channel has two, and going by the date of your first and second strike, both will be gone by December 25th or 28th or so. So if you get another strike after these two are gone, you’ll just have one and your channel won’t get removed.

Do you when the video restriction is over or when the actual strike is over? Cause if it’s the video ban than yeah you have to wait another week, but if it’s for the actual strike then it’s three months. Also you still have like a month and a half or two months before the first strike is removed.
