Basic rundown on what’s going on with YouTube atm from what I understand:

YouTube changed the algorithm for the site’s coding, resulting in big-time YouTubers like H3H3, PewDiePie, and even @therealjacksepticeye losing hundreds, if not THOUSANDS of subscribes at an alarming rate. Basically what they’re doing is dropping subscribers from these popular channels if you haven’t watched their videos on a daily basis and if their daily videos aren’t getting X amount of views.

However, as H3H3 pointed out, there are YouTube channels that are benefiting from this. And those are the channels that are putting money directly into YouTube’s pocket. These videos are showing up in the trending tag despite not even hitting 50,000 views, because they’re ‘Trending.’ What’s really going on is just they’re stuffing money into YouTube’s pockets, and YouTube’s current response when asked about this is literally

‘lol idk fam ;)’

So YouTube is shafting YouTubers and don’t have any answers for it, meanwhile channels that are run by big time corporations or big recording studios/teams are able to literally buy their way to the front page of YouTube and gain a lot of hits. It’s back to the early 00s again, with click-bait taking over YouTube instead of original content. So original content creators are getting the shit end of the stick shoved directly up their asshole.

What the fuck

Whatever branch of Google runs Youtube knows they hold a monopoly on easily accessible video sharing with a large audience so they just endlessly abuse it’s community.
