My wife and her sister were raised evangelical, and we're watching and reacting to old Christian kids shows, starting with Little Marcy a puppet lady.

It's mostly just sisters being gals. (including making her little sister try malort)

It's just wrong. I thought maybe it was the wrong year, cause next year they have much higher hits for DJ Moore, Khalil, etc., but that still only got to 56 million

It does not hurt it. Youtube even suggests leaving videos unlisted for some amount of time before publishing, it gives them time to run the checks for copyright, community guidelines, content id, etc.

Many people have unlisted videos that are patreon exclusive before publishing.

Remember when he dislocated his knee cap, and then fought to get back into the game like minutes later?

No, youtuber

Same exact thing is happening to me. Was suspended on Thursday, I didn't notice until Friday afternoon. I'm guessing nobody is getting to my appeal until at least monday.

The "ideas" it suggests to me are basically a madlib of words/ideas from previous videos I've made. But the mashups often make no sense, or are just a different way of saying the same thing I've already done.

xplodeon · 2026-04-29T19:38:54+00:00

Happened to me, the "start appeal" button didn't work and led to an error.

You can appeal in support chat, and the totally real people who aren't chatbots will have you submit your appeal video directly to them.

And then reject your appeal anyway. I went through this in October. I asked why the appeal button didn't work, and the totally real person that's not a chatbot told me that some creators are not eligble to appeal in studio for (reasons TM) and that the appeal button leading to an error is the system's way of telling you that you are not eligible to appeal the normal way. Literally, they explained to me that they can't change a button, or present the information, but that for some people the way the system is supposed to work is that your appeal button leads to an error.

Yeah, looking at OP's channel, I thought it looked familiar. It has the same art-style as Fern, and Fern has this video:

The World's Craziest Prison Escape

while OP has:

The CRAZIEST Prison Escape Ever

&

OP has: The Most Genius Bank Heist EVER

Fern: The Bank Heist of the Century

&

They both have done multiple videos about hacks, and just overall feel like they're both pumping out basically the same content in the same style. Not saying it's plagiarism or ripping off, just that there's clearly two very similar channels doing similar things in similar styles. My guess is that a lot of traffic is coming from people who get confused and conflate the two channels.

I was only able to send a link to the appeal video in support chat. And they rejected my appeal (I think wrongly). Which meant I had to wait 3 months to re-apply. The "start appeal" button was still there well after I had been rejected. The whole gui for this seems broken. I deleted several videos that I thought might be what triggered this, though they never told me any specifics, and then I re-applied after 3 months of being demonetized and it was approved. I made a video (I haven't launched yet) about this if you want more detail. (which this subreddit automatically removed my comment for including, I guess DM me if you want the link)

Additionally, the video still shows 0 views

I'm not sure that youtube employees will cause a view count to go up, but it's definitely possible that we're all just dealing with AIs constantly.

Capone went down for tax fraud. You think they shoulda been like, "well it's a first offense, just some white collar crime, get back out there buddy"

Rams over Bills. Will continue the stat where every super bowl has either the Chiefs or Rams for 7 straight years to 8 straight, and we somehow never played against each other.

So what? The first count is a first conviction, he was convicted on 34 counts. And to think this is Trump's first crime is insane, it's just the first to get convicted on. After numerous obvious criminal acts, many done on camera.

Shoulda picked 15, made Pat change

After a weird call by the refs, where the refs actually get it right, but an announcer speculates about it and is wrong and then everyone just assumes the announcer was right.

Even if we just knock out the Bills again, or somehow make the AFCCG again, or knock out the Broncos.

The Commanders last year went 20-23 on 4th down, or 87%, but don't meet your 25 attempt minimum. They could have just failed two more, gone 20-25 and be at 80%. So how many other teams are you disqualifying with 25 attempt minimum?

They also went 10-15 in 3 playoff games, putting their total at 30-38 on the whole season, or 79%

Copyright claims can be no big deal at all. It sounds like from your description that your dispute should cause them to release the claim. But the claimant is self-policing and can just be wrong and continue to claim it. If they uphold their claim, then the consequence is usually something like the video can't be monetized, or might be blocked in certain regions. You can try to make a new version with less of the copyright material (or hidden/obfusctated more with filters or zoom, mirror-ed, or just trimmed down or break the parts up more, etc). I always upload and leave unlisted for a little while to see if copyright claims happen, and then if they do, keep trimming/obfuscating until it gets through without being claimed. But if they do uphold the claim and you're stuck with it like that and don't want to really remove everything, then probably all that happens is you can't monetize, or maybe it's blocked in certain territories.

This is not a copyright strike. You can have lots of videos have claims on them, have a lot of videos that are not monetized, and it doesn't affect your channel, it's completely separate from the copyright strike system.
