Youtube Ads..

So after thinking about it for a while, and probably even more later, I think I might have to stop producing content for Youtube all together. I know I don’t have a huge audience like a lot of other creators out there, but my time and energy still means something to me. Last night i uploaded a test video just to see if it would be demonetized, and all it was was me telling my viewers that it was a test video. Sure enough right as it was done processing to be made public, it was immediately found to be “not suitable for all advertisers”. How is me sitting in front of my camera and telling my viewers “hey this is a test video” not advertiser friendly? It seems to me that any video I go upload now is being flagged. And it’s not fair at all. Seems to me that a lot of channels are being blacklisted for some reason. If I uploaded videos that had hate speech or anything controversial in them I would understand, but I make content about computer hardware and games. I just don’t get it..
