      UA-cam has been going downhill for a long time especially since being acquired by Google. There are many videos by youtubers like Coffee Break or Memeology101 that show how youtube doesn't help individual creators anymore because it's too busy helping established corporations. In fact if you look up "youtube artificial growth" by Memeology you'll even see how youtube is planning to flood the site with planted fake youtubers. People who share opinions are hit the worst because there is a lot of censorship, demonetization, and shadow banning of anybody who has even mildly politically incorrect opinions.

      @@mikerosoft1009 Unfortunately there is no easy quick fix because youtube is pretty much a monopoly. The best you can do for now is to stay informed and talk to other people about what you see going on. Little by little as more people wake up you will see slow but steady continued migration to alternate sites like Bit Chute. It would help if more big creators also uploaded to Bit Chute, but for now support creators who are honest and don't support the ones who are clearly schilling for youtube or virtue signal constantly about how racist everybody else is. This is the long game unless somebody comes up with an alternative tomorrow. Lastly, it's a good idea to learn and stay up on politics because it helps you understand Big Tech's motivations for it's dumb decisions because there is so much going on that most people aren't aware of. For example, we live in a world where feminism is forced into our entertainment, and also where books that teach men how to seduce women are banned from major retailers like Amazon for political reasons, whereas hardcore graphic sex books are okay. Politics is everything nowadays unfortunately.

      @@maskedbadass6802 Okay, but it's still free to post videos on UA-cam. One doesn't need 'help' to do that. If you're talking about monetization - which means ad revenue - then in my opinion this taints anyone who earns money on UA-cam; whether you call them a 'corporation' or a 'popular UA-cam personality'....in both cases they're profiting from ads. If you argue that it's expensive to produce polished, quality content then I respond: 1) No, it doesn't have to be. 2) One could earn that revenue from Patreon/subscriptions rather than ads. I watch a lot of stuff on UA-cam that's created by people who aren't trying to make a living doing this, and that stuff is just fine.
      I'll admit that my comments don't cover shadow banning or censorship. Those things are bad, but from what I can tell they're mostly limited to certain political conversations and maybe a little bit of the virtue signaling stuff. Horrible, but I expect this stuff to calm down soon enough.

They spent a big pile of money doing it, and some guy put out a way better version using this type of tech for basically nothing.
