Creators who want to start earning on the platform will need at least 8,000 qualified watch hours over the past year or 20 million qualified Shorts views in the last 90 days.
I mentioned this in another thread on the subject, but I hit a perfect storm of subject and content once I guess, and have a video on my channel that just keeps racking up views despite having under 500 subs. And at the rate I’m going I’ll never see a dime from it. It’s actually kind of infuriating when I think about it, so I try not to. I made the video for me, not for money. But it still pisses me off.
Yeah, I’m planning on releasing some video soon, because I want to share some ideas I hope people find interesting, I don’t expect to make money from it, but it was a “it would be nice” kind of thing, but now that wouldn’t happen at all, but youtube will still probably make plenty of profit off of it if it does moderately well, which is extremely frustrating.
Gotta assume they’re trying to shore up revenue because more people are using ad blockers to not get blasted with the dumbest shit imaginable for a 10 second clip.
But I’m sure they’re more than happy to cram these people’s videos full of ads despite those people not seeing a cent of it.
Youtube honestly seems to be trying to do everything in their power to drive people off the platform and have it be bots and AI only.

Gotta assume they’re greedy pricks.
Well yeah that too.
