YouTube Doesn't Care Anymore
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лют 2025
- Whether something is broken, creators are demonetized by the thousands, the platform is worsened, viewers are subject to constant changes to the platform that ruin their experience, UA-cam has shown that they don't care anymore. Maybe one day I'll get my 100K plaque and be given the gift of recommendations again.

I don't want you guys to feel sorry for me at all. That's not the point of this video. I just want you guys to know that it's not all great being a UA-camr 100% of the time. It's the opportunity of a lifetime that UA-cam constantly threatens just because.
Optimus I don't even have the option to join your channel
Seems that nobody is getting the option until I livestream.
It's crazy I get notified constantly from people that I'm not even subscribed to
Watch UA-cam destroy this site by accident or delete all videos and channels ever was
Hang in there man. You will get the recognition and the subscribers you deserve. Your content is good stuff, best shit on UA-cam. And it is going to happen one day, you will explode because you are a likeable guy who makes great content, and people as well as UA-cam will realize that.
They stopped caring in 2016
I want subs If they cared Logan Paul and his bro wouldn’t be on the website
When Google bought UA-cam it went to shit. People have no idea how much better it was before. People collaborated, helped one another out, the cream rose to the top. Total opposite now, pot luck u could make one of the best videos and it wont get 10 views lol
2014*
Yup.. Its all about money. And following the trends
Well, after the 2016 meeting in May, maybe.
Pretty sure they stopped caring once they became Google's puppet.
John Atria I doubt google as a company says anything about UA-cam
UA-cam is _owned_ by google, yet (what I believe)is rarely told what to do by google
Google probably appointed crappy people
I still remember the tim when the ad revenue crashed because of a article (swears at the distance) "God damn you media"
*Disney
Why do people forget that Google had UA-cam since they started
@@inesfr4071 wot mate?
UA-cam never cared ! They need more competition so UA-cam can step their game up !
Thanks for this video !
Investing Hustler Are you sure that the founders in 2005 weren't caring?
They cared back in the day , now its meh.
Forget it. We need a new platform
Lil HeartZ Who..?
@@dawson149 have fun looking for that.
Thanks, Google! [Also waiting for my 100k plaque, been processing *forever*]
Honestly, we have to hope that something hits Google hard with a free speech lawsuit or something, or that leadership of the UA-cam branch changes. Right now, it's run by sensitive people who think everything they disagree with should be banned from the platform.
they havent given a crap sese all the way back in 2012. ive been here sense 2010 and ive seen all the changes they have been doing on the following years
I don't think sensitive people is what they have working there at all.. I'm hearing it's not people.. just algorithms and Bots that look for words and phrases.. and that thing decides if it thinks you're doing something they do or don't want you showing.. but it's gotten ridiculous because people of shown some examples of how this bot or algorithm is eliminating things in a way that defies logic.
Also that is the same reason why sometimes when people upload a movie they deliberately screw up something on it so it won't be detected by the copyright Bots.. so they might deliberately make the movie a little too fast.. and I saw one where they put some weird Shadowy diagonal lines over it
UA-cam does care.
About money.
MarGon Doing this gets them less money I think.
Any video you post (please correct me if I am wrong) will make UA-cam money, and some percent of it will go to the creator. If the CREATOR gets demonitized, UA-cam will happily take all of the leftover pennies.
UA-cam is the Mr. Krabs of Video Sharing
You’re right, they’re so greedy about money and if all ads removed from this website, UA-cam even will never give a another full of spoon money to UA-camrs.
MarGon No if you look at UA-cam statistics it barely generates money for google, some years google even lost money from UA-cam
I couldn't do UA-cam for a living. As hard as it is, I prefer working a more tradition job, since it usually is more stable than UA-cam. But I admire those who can make money doing what they love
Respect
Anyone else miss the days where UA-cam wasn’t run by a multi-billion dollar tech company. Things were sooooo much better back then
yea, it sucks when you get literally 3 ads in a row
yea i started watching in 2012 and back then it was grate but now you just get jack Paul in your recommend
Anyone else get satisfied when he uploads?
Edit:damn thnx for the likes to me 87 is a lot
Penny Zufari ikr glad I can usually learn something that I was oblivious too in most of his vids
Yes. This is my daily dose of rant everyday
@@Xytoast345 factss

I hate it when Optimus has to suffer from UA-cam's evil tactics and shit. I feel bad for Optimus a lot
UA-cam gets paid by huge corporations to put their videos on tending the recommended feed. I can’t even go to my recommended feed because it’s full of fortnite. I don’t watch fortnite videos I don’t play fortnite
UA-cam has gotten too big. They dont care about the creators anymore.
my biggest problem with youtube is that all the videos that ever get reccomended to me are ones I've already seen
Craig Stephenson yeah it does an ass job of remembering what you’ve watched
Craig Stephenson i have the same problem ! I wonder why nobody is talking about this. Like it's not just that they don't give an f about their creators the also don't care about the overall user experience. I just updated the app and now no video I click on will play, while my internet connection is completely fine. (could be,something else but the app crashing alot and videos not playing after the update.... it just sucks man)
Every now and then I get notifications for a 3-ish day old video. I check, and I have the bell icon still activated. So I'm like ??? It's happened the most to me on MrRoflWaffles channel.
Jake I love Milo

Very popular UA-camrs makes really bad and dangerous content, no matter how many times got reported, it didn't get warned or terminated.
Well said. I just got demonetized
UA-cam is like a drunk uncle. Hes there, nobody likes him, but he’s part of the family so you gotta love him
I got a lot to say on this, and trust me when I say I feel you on this. There's something to be said about the emotional toll it takes on UA-camrs as well, when the algorithm randomly changes and stops recommending their stuff. In the first year of my channel I worked my ass off and saw steady growth on my channel. Around the year and a half mark my channel peaked and out of nowhere I was getting recommended to the point that I broke 900,000 views for the month. I know that isn't a lot for some UA-camrs, but it was a high point for me. Then, as UA-cam tends to do, they "made changes to the platform" because of channels getting demonetized, and it was like my channel hit a brick wall at 100 mph. I literally went from averaging 30,000 cumulative views a day to barely breaking 5,000 views in a day. Nothing on my end changed. I was uploading the same content, at the same frequencies my subscribers had been accustomed to. The views continued to drop and then I noticed the icing on the cake. Subs would comment on videos 5+ days after I uploaded them and say "I didn't get notified for this." Then the next thing I know, my videos started getting demonetized. It was like one thing after another, so I eventually just gave up. Thankfully I didn't quit my job, because at one point I was making enough from UA-cam to pay all my bills and was strongly considering going all in, but then everything I listed above happened and brought me crashing back to reality. It's a very emotionally exhausting thing to work hard to build a community around something you enjoy only to have the platform you're doing it on decide to break it into a million pieces for no reason other than laziness and apathy towards the very people that make the platform what it is.
Hmm, I'm subscribed and have the bell clicked. Why am I not getting notifs (except this one ironically)
Owais Khan your notifications are probably set to occasionally happen. If you want them all you can change the setting for his channel notifications
I clicked the bell twice tho... and it says I'll get all notifs... UA-cam is misleading lmao
They’ve forgotten that without the creators, they’re nothing
UA-cam should be investigated for:
Monopoly
Infringement of information
Pls let me know if I missed anything
Your video was the first in my recommended list. And this is the first video I have watched from you in months. I had completely forgot about your channel. And yes my notification didn’t go off for this video.
Is bowsette a trap
@1176 i was guetting worried like i was beating my meat to it and asked myself, is this sinful?
doesn't matter to me
bowsette is a trans
It's gay
Yes
youtube machine broke
Usually, I would respond with "Understandable, have a nice day," but this simply doesn't apply here.
in my opinion no one will be able to pass youtube simply because if a company like youtube is on the rise, youtube will just buy them out
Exactly, there won't be any competition
man I have had the problem for a year or so now. ever since the bell icon bs.
i found you yesterday. one of your vids got reccomended to me, and i immediately clicked due to my preference on content.
yt cares, then they dont care, then they care again. its a neverending cycle.
I clicked the bell about 2 months ago. And I just looked at your latest videos and I didn’t get notified about them. UA-cam plz I love this man help me help
Unfortunately, my ads got taken away for a false reason. It says i've been duplicating other's video EVEN THOUGH I HAVEN'T DONE SO! Please help me find a solution!
UA-cam is going be gone in ten 20 years they’re either going to ask Accidentally messed it up bad or delete every video and every channel it’s possible or this going to get a good competitor
I dont think, hell I know ive never had a video in a recommended section in over 7 years lol absolutely ridiculous. With my best videos even my friends ask me how does that not have 1mil views, how can I answer that. Its embarrassing and so demotivating. The amount of hours ive spent makes me feel the biggest idiot on the platform lol thanks UA-cam
WookiesYaUncle holy fuck mate, u have been uploading for 6 years and you don’t have any subs, I’m so sorry dude
WookiesYaUncle I’m gonna sub and recommend u to people
“When will UA-cam care about content creators?”
That’s the neat part, they don’t.
I hope for the best on your passion. I have been in the YT system for 5 years and barely got 200 subs on 9/21-9/23/18.
It is a bad system that this platform is hopeless for me to make a dream career. Don’t know what will happen next.
The first frame made me like in under a heartbeat
I can respect to you a lot. That UA-cam hasn’t been good in the pass 1 year. Back in 2007 (That was when I enter UA-cam) it was my first website and it was my childhood.
I quit watching UA-cam in 2013, then came back in 2015 when my sister showed me Five Nights At Freddy’s. Now I’m prepare to quit watching UA-cam this time for good. I’m going to move on to VRV so The SML Movie will be my official last UA-cam video as a viewer. It’s been pass 11 years and now it’s getting old here and there and there’s nothing good anymore.
I get random notifications for channels I don't subscribe to, but they don't notify me we your videos come out, even though I have notifications enabled.
What people don't understand about yt is that this is how it has to be. Sure they could have not impleneted ad block but if they did that in a few years all the ads would be pulled so basically no one would get money anymore. Tbh this is the best way
I see you on my front page, I click as fast as possible.
But sees a ad
Got recommended to you channel today. It is the type of content I watch constantly and I subscribed. Keep your head up!
You have such an amazing opinion on a such controversial topic where so many diversed oppinions are reflectrd upon us(the viewers). Good job and respect from the island of Cyprus!
Unfortunately, it's big company syndrome. In the unlikely event you can get hold of someone, they don't have the authority to act. They're stuck with a script.
I'd love to see an alternative to YT but I fear it's such a behemoth it isn't possible.
I was impressed by your Telltale video; you were the only one who put a jobs list out there.
This describes my current situation perfectly
What's worse is that on certain channels, I try to hit the notification bell and "an error occurs"
I know that the error is bullshit. I just tried turning on notifications for Optimus and that error message popped up, but when I do it to another channel (Example: Markiplier) it works just fine
Edit: I just noticed that Optimus uploaded this 4 days ago, and it's just now showing up on my homepage... wtf
UA-cam can't control their algorithm, their algorithm controls them.
I have recomendations open for you but I still son't get notified. BUT don't worry, I check your uploads everyday to watch you ma boi. I love your content. Keep it up.
I wish UA-cam could get it figured out. It's also extremely hard to get a channel like mine off the ground and get a subscriber base. I wish they would get their stuff together or have some competition come in.
I started watching your channel from the fortnite is dying video that showed up in my recommended I subscribed and you have become my favorite UA-camr by far and it is so sad to hear that, that can’t happen for others
UA-cam stopped caring about us, I stopped caring about it. I’ve been trying for a decent amount of time to get my name out there, and I am grateful for what I got but i mean, I’ve been trying for about a year in a half and barely grown. I’m happy for those people who get “lucky” or however people get subs really quickly. As soon as they stopped monetizing small youtubers I just stopped caring. Still loving the vids Optimus and I’m happy your growing pretty fast
Not mad that we work 40 hours a week, we worked hard to build references in the real world, while you sat at home thinking you could just coast through life playing video games and making videos, I dont feel the least bit bad for UA-camrs, y'all are lucky you get a dime
I agree, they shouldn't meddle in UA-camr's career and decide what we should or shouldn't watch. Keep the cite neutral and the algorithm normal. I don't understand why they don't use logic.
UA-cam: “UA-camr you say? Thats a strange word for puppet.”
Okay let me tell you guys something, today I went and got my citizenship and also my passport... First time ever.... and the lady said I'll get my papers in 4 weeks. So basically you can become an officially legal citizen in America more quickly than you can get a 100k play button when you get 100k subs.... And we said America is in deep shit. (From his situation they'll review it in 5 weeks)
UA-cam also blatantly refuses blockbuster-hit movies to be shown on this site because of their incredibly restrictive nature when it comes to copyright claims. Just my two cents, but I know not many people can afford to buy movies.
Idk why but EVERY single channel i follow that says theyre subs arent notified or recommended, are to me. Like you frequently pop up in my recommended until i watch ur video lol. Im subscribed btw.
I work a 40+ hour week and i have no problem work youtubers making their money like this.
unfortunately i dont think there will be a competitor to youtube anytime soon. the problem is youtube is to big. anything like youtube will be unnoticed and forgotten. watching videos like this really discourages me from starting my own channel
and even when a website like this does come, it wont have adds yet because it would be really new
exactly when the statics where updated when i reaced 100k my views exploded
This video is the reason why i wont start youtubing, i love gaming, and i love editing.. But i hear so much s*it about content creation so, i have the time and the money to actually make it work but it feels like such a risk that i wont even take it.. Good video, keep it up.
Bro when I saw you in the recommendations I clapped myself that night knowing I found a good channel
3:55 DAYUM YK THIS ONE YK 57 DAYUM YK.
At this point, using your memory to memorize your favorite channels schedule date for uploads is better than hitting the actual sub button for notifications, get your shit together youtube.
Good example of UA-cam being shit. I got 6 ads over the course of this video. 6!
To be honest. If this video doesn't hit at least 50k views. Something is wrong. I look for videos that are straight forward, something Im going to expect before I actually watch it.
"UA-cam doesn't care anymore" definitely is something like so. Why doesn't UA-cam care anymore? Click the video
this is how things go with big companies, they buy something big for big dollars and for some reason they just have a enjoyment to send it to the ground! Minecraft is a perfect example of this
They totally dehumanized the platform. Horrible business mistake for both viewers and creators. Yes, they will make more short term money, but in the long run creators will stop making videos and their followers will give up, leading to a toxic “family friendly” platform that will ultimately die out
Optimus is Optimus and youtube is Megatron
>Shits on UA-cam
>Monetizes video
You win the internet today sir.
On the topic of recommendations 90% of my recommendations are either videos I have already watched or have previously hit not interested on. Yes, UA-cam has constantly been recommending me videos I have already said I am not interested in for over 2 months now! The recommended section is absolutely garbage and I don't even bother going through it.
2:33, that's how I found this video and this channel and tbh, I wasn't let down by the content! I enjoyed the video bro and I can't imagine how u must feel, UA-cam has really gone down the shitter since about early 2016, maybe even late 2015! The CEO of UA-cam, Sarah whatever her second name is, doesn't know that she's slowly destroying UA-cam and she just doesn't know how to run a website in general😒
I mean, UA-cam isn't that careless, I reported a guy's comment that called me a Homo, and disliked every animation I made, also blocked him
*_Never saw a single comment, or dislike from him again in Future Videos_*
Yaboh RL I’ll get you banned from UA-cam
Victor Fernandez // Bigdestroyer you can't get someone banned for no absolute reason
I love youtube when their slogan was "Broadcast Yourself"
Now its: "GIVE ME YOUR FUCKING MONEY"
Holy crap I just realised that notifications has been turned off for your channel for me What the actual hell?!
I got six black ops 4 ads while I watched this video. Black ops 4 is getting really annoying to see.
We need a new platform where you can be yourself and make money.. They demonetized for duplication its so annoying
I hear you man,it's hard to get traction on this website.Doesn't matter how much you try to abide by the rules,you still get fucked hard.
Let's just hope youtube gets better for us creators in the future!
The unsubscribe thing happens the most with Hunter Avallone, at least for me
whats up with the CONSTANT ads interrupting the videos now? like as of yesterday? is anyone else getting this?
Hey dude I’ve been watching since 18k and I even have a screenshot of it. I hope you get through this bullshit
also the notification thing doesn't work at all and i only get notifications of comments, likes, but not uploads from youtubers i want to be notified of
I suggest doing one live stream on twitch (use youtube to promote it), I am not a streamer or content creator but I have heard a big streamer & content creator say they make more from one twitch 3hr stream then from 5 youtube videos.
People with a ‘real job’ work a horrible job but get paid reliably.
You say they’re salty.
You then complain about, well, pretty much your boss. Nothing’s gonna change. You’re salty just like the people with other jobs are. This video is very hypocritical.
I love UA-cam and I honestly could imagine another site but it sounds like they need to get their shit together! Really feel bad for you.
We should have a UA-cam Big Bang where The entire website gets their subscribers reset to 0 and he get an entire new team working at UA-cam
*UA-cam.exe has stopped working*
I'm glad you popped up in my recommendations a month or two ago
The join button doesn’t even appear for me. UA-cam “really smart”. Best of luck man
Edit:Just noticed notification button randomly turned of👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
This makes progressing youtubers fall back and have doubt that they can achieve there dream of being a big youtuber
Before the bell, Subscribing did not mean you got notifications. If you wanted to receive notifications, that was buried in settings. If anything, the bell has made it easier for people to receive notifications
I subscribed and am notified a long time ago. I love watching your videos. Keep your videos going!
Remember the good old days of UA-cam 2011-2014
I remember one bad thing that they did to me and that was removing all of the subscriptions of all the channels I follow
I’ve been supporting you since you were at like 20k subs
You got a new sub dude. You create some amazing content here.
about a year ago i was doing youtube and i wanted to make a career out of it, and then i got a copyright strike. and no, it wasn't music, or a movie, it was gameplay and my own fucking voice. after that i deleted all my videos and i left youtube for a long time. now i started doing videos again but like once a month as youtube in 2018 has completely disappointed me. also when i was younger i always saw people saying "#notification squad!" and now thats completely gone. it's honestly sad what they have done with a platform that i grew up with and got inspired by....
Claims it's a job
Makes 16 minute video.
Puts 1 ad.
He put 3
*4 ads
@pleasewait that's called ad-block
UA-cam puts 4, he gets paid for 1
PEOPLE USED TO MAKE VIDEOS AND NOT EXPECT ANYTHING.... lmao smh
I saw your last few videos in my recommended tab, I didn't watch them because I wasn't interested. I'm not sure if other subs have done the same thing. No hate to you whatsoever, I just wanted to watch other stuff. :)
PS: UA-cam stopped caring a long time ago lmao
It's a shame no site is out there that runs like UA-cam so they can put UA-cam out of business
Btw I know this may sound rich coming from me but it's kinda fucked how UA-cam can change your profile pic without you knowing and without consent. They don't send you an email or anything
