For those who don't know, YouTube has started to implement an "Advertiser Friendly" approach to content.
Meaning if ones content is too risky (i.e. swearing, vulgarity, violence, sexuality, and so on) it will be flagged "Not advertiser friendly" and thus can not be monetized by the creator. This has already affected a number of my videos and will probably affect a lot more. So a large portion of an income I relied on will quickly disappear. Sad to say, but after 15 years of posting content to the internet, this is one of the worst things I've seen happen to a large creative community. The effects will be far reaching and I fear a number of people will skew their content merely so they can monetize their work. With that being said SUPPORT YOUR FAVORITE CONTENT CREATORS. (Even if it's not me) Seriously. There will be so many people financially hurt by this move. Creators have made YouTube a place worth going to and denying them compensating outlets is a rather cruel show of appreciation. WIth that being said
JiMathers is creating Cartoons | Patreon*almost 4 years after this was posted, we can see the outcome....over half of Foamy the Squirrel episodes have been deleted from youtube and J.I.M.'s entire channel was demonetized*
