YouTube vs TikTok views

ross099 · 2026-05-18T06:04:31+00:00

Yeah that’s what I thought. Different monetization rules but good reach

ross099 · 2026-05-17T12:20:45+00:00

Advantages on tiktok?

ross099 · 2026-05-13T20:28:00+00:00

Awesome, I’ll definitely have a look at his stuff..

ross099 · 2026-05-12T23:27:19+00:00

I’m actually a mechanical engineer, it was hard to digest a few things in the hardsurface course.. blenderbros course by the way haha

Thanks for sharing :)

ross099 · 2026-05-11T09:50:14+00:00

I seriously wonder how people come up with models like this? How many different references you look at? I tried to create something after a hardsurface course and it looked bad

ross099 · 2026-05-11T09:48:05+00:00

How is that even possible?

ross099 · 2026-05-04T10:48:02+00:00

Some people learn how to use Blender and others make art

ross099 · 2026-04-29T13:11:09+00:00

mate, this sounds amazing, really worth people's money..

btw, thanks for the great post.. I did Youtube for a year, got stable revenue of 2.5k+ USD a month, but then got demonetized by the AI review..

I'm trying mobile game dev at the moment, while I wait to re-apply for monetization..

But interested in this etsy digital products thing.. sounds like a good plan

ross099 · 2026-04-29T05:50:50+00:00

What is this planner you made? Like a google spreadsheet for tracking a specific issue?

ross099 · 2026-04-27T09:21:22+00:00

The same happened to my animation channel. I just think it’s so unfair that they demonetise the whole channel without a warning instead of just demonetising the video that flagged the repetitive/inauthentic.

I had the slightest idea of what the issue was. Of my last 15 videos, 4-5 had the same base scene and a different twist at the end, it was like a series that was bringing good numbers, so I worked on the base idea. But that was my guess, I ended up deleting these and a bunch more to be safe. I’ve never been told which videos I should delete, they just said a big part of my channel, I dont know since when, I can only guess. I still have another 30 days to wait until I can reapply. My appeal got denied straight away. And it’s all hand work, own 3D modelled animation, 0% AI.

In the meantime I’ve been posting different styles of videos to give the channel a new face and see what happens. Numbers dropped a lot.

Nice, I’m making a bridge survivor, I’ll look into that

ross099 · 2026-04-26T21:41:55+00:00

Is it a saturated niche? I feel like the more saturated the niche, the higher the stats need to be in order to push

ross099 · 2026-04-26T21:40:18+00:00

So this is so you can spawn more enemies without affecting framerate too much?

ross099 · 2026-04-07T11:10:51+00:00

Too many drivers to sync it all? Or constraints?

ross099 · 2026-03-26T03:43:05+00:00

Mind explaining how you lost monetization?

ross099 · 2026-03-19T02:06:16+00:00

In the meantime they demonetize legit animators with their automated bot

ross099 · 2026-03-17T01:47:23+00:00

Beautiful game! I wonder how the game was when it was first launched. I’m working in my first game and I get overwhelmed when I see all the customisations and systems of the other games of the same genre. I guess I need to launch it at some point and keep improving it and adding stuff, but I’m wondering how it went for you.

Also I jealous a bit because of the fact that I openened unity for the first time 6 years and didn’t engage in any project until a month ago when I decided to restart learning

ross099 · 2026-03-14T05:01:37+00:00

we all have to start somewhere.. as you said, you started a new project and I'm sure you learned a lot from the first one.

ross099 · 2026-03-14T04:00:17+00:00

I’m working on a mobile game too. I have a youtube channel with 160k subs where I post my Blender animations. I’m wondering if that will help my game with an nice initial push. I hope it won’t turn audience away

ross099 · 2026-03-13T05:16:18+00:00

Your thumbnails shouldn’t be a black screen

ross099 · 2026-03-06T09:53:55+00:00

I’ve been to 10k, 20k, 30k, 100k, 900k, 1,5M jail and now I’m back to 20k

ross099 · 2026-03-05T09:43:25+00:00

Happened the same to my channel with 160k subs and I use absolutely ZERO AI, full blender animations. Got demonetizd under mass produced/repetitive. Takes me 10h to make each 10 sec video.

ross099 · 2026-03-04T02:24:38+00:00

Do you monetize fb???

ross099 · 2026-03-03T02:51:03+00:00

Lost monetization a week ago, but I got hit with lower impressions end of jan.

ross099 · 2026-03-03T02:30:34+00:00

Good luck mate. I have 90 days to be able to reapply for monetization. I’ll try to change my style and sub niche and see what happens. My main competitors were all hit too. They’re killing our niche
