On YouTube, now you need 10000 views to even ask for monetization. 10k! If you have separate projects, that's 10k views again and again and again for every new channel. I started a new one a while ago, got the views finally and I got a simple refusal after like a week of waiting for whatever reason. They weren't specific. No guidance or anything, I just need to upload more videos and get more views and they might change it and they give some money.
I'm no musician and uploaded videos that could go viral, and luckily it did but for them, 10000 is a lot! And they could earn a good sum of $ here with that view count while they might end up with 0 on YT even after hundreds of thousands of views.
that why use dtube for videos
Yup, I stopped uploading there a few weeks ago. DTube is a better choice from now if anyone wants monetized videos.
Yes! YouTube is becoming irrelevant. They are even making it harder for their superstars to make money. Pewdiepie has been complaining for a while and he is a huge asset to YouTube.
