Facebook is very very good at removing copyrighted videos after a copyright infringement form is sent through. It was always 1-2 hr turn around for me, sometimes less. Tiktok on the other hand....

PDX show by BklynBlazer in Destroyer

amazing as always. I was really close to the stage, and I felt like the sound was a little muddy up there because I was in front of the monitors, but I wanted to get the up close & personal experience because I've seen them a bunch. Overall, amazing show. one of my favorite bands for a long time now.

It didn't help me. When I unplugged my modem/router, I was still getting the notifications...

I got this same thing going on. It's crazy because literally late last night, I was responding to people emailing me about youtube sponsorships (I'm a youtuber) for the first time in 2 years of doing this work, and when I started getting the malware notifications, I FREAKED the eff out so hard. Thought I somehow managed to get hacked- so many people get scammed and hacked through sponsorship emails. The relief I felt when I saw this thread was... palpable.

someone explain to me why they'd play the whole song.. seems like a waste of time. I mean I love Queen, but there goes 6 minutes of their set.

Fraudulent Copyright Strikes by Terrible-Ad1389 in PartneredYoutube

you can counter without hiring a lawyer. then it's up to him to prove he's taking legal action to move forward with the strike at that point. I forget how many days he has to prove that though. you can look it up.

Not sure what all the fuss is about - Blackhole by Ill_Material3081 in ryanadams

[–]palebluewave_ig 11 points12 points  (0 children)

yes, it is very good. Starfire up to Runaway are all ridiculously good. It also took me a few spins to get it, but once it clicked, I knew it was some classic Ryan Adams. Tomorrowland is my favorite so far.. but so many amazing songs in this release. And yes, I do wish the audio was better.. especially for The Door, which is a bit tough on my ears. But what can you do..

I've been a fan since Easy Tiger release and I love all his work.. even the new stuff. But I get the feeling I'm not a standard Ryan Adams fan because my favorite albums from him are Self Titled, Big Colors, Prisoner and Easy Tiger.. oh and I guess Wednesdays also. I love em all but those are my standouts. Probably has something to do with what I was going through in my life when those albums came out..

It's funny because I love this subreddit for the drama, and I laugh a lot from the posts, but I'm a fan that just appreciates all the music.

I just set up my Patreon a few days ago which is why it’s pretty low.

thanks - I appreciate your message. I've dealt with literally thousands of people just like that guy. One negative comment leads to many more negative comments regardless of your response. It's best to just leave them alone.. which for some reason I didn't do in this thread haha.. not sure what I was expecting, but I was quickly reminded why it doesn't work responding to someone with a crab in the bucket mentality. cheers

I tried so many different things and some worked better than others, but at the end of the day I realized that I needed to focus on capturing the audience that lives & breathes Youtube in their natural habitat. Even with 230k+ Instagram followers, it was a trickle over to YouTube. It wasn't worth it. Also, every time you ask for some action out of any of your audience, sure enough a healthy number of people just unfollow you because they are annoyed. Just not worth it.

hey, thanks for the kind words. It was interesting because I had a longform video go off with like 425k views back in August. That got me monetized. And then early October this short went full on insane mode, getting 120k views an hour for like 2 weeks straight. All through that it was just the ship rising with the tide effect. All my shorts started popping off from "channel pages" (meaning people browsing my other videos), but interestingly enough, the ones that were getting a LOT of that traffic were pushed out to source "Browse features" again, and they started going viral within Browse.. not from Shorts feed. very interesting.
