Right now it's scary, I've been slowly building my channel back, not for monetizingreason but because I've used it as promotional side channel for more a than a decade, I have the videos hosted and deeplinked in my sites, and more. But I got the notifications and each day the notes are more ambiguous , any family friendly COULD BE for kids, like "music" or "fantasy" or very AMBIGUOUS terms. I do not make my songs and music FOR KIDS and some are even not SUITABLE due to the complicated language to be understood by them. I set my channel to "no" and I'm waiting for any kind of issue happening to anyone to make a decision. They should have a system that tracks like they track the copyright, long time ago they should have spend to hire on some curators instead of ai algorithms to promote some high quality underrated content, but seems if you're not family friendly no ads, we can close your channel, if you're for kids, no ads, no "interactions" and we can fine you... should we just all go? I hope not! :/ but that just might be it.
I've perceiving a great exodus especially form younger youtubers,and we are all trying to gather more bits about this.
