@TheBrianMcManus It's purely for YouTube executives to brag about how they are far ahead of TikTok, Netflix etc to advertisers and shareholders. Nothing useful for YouTube itself or creators, just a corporate vanity move.
I don't want to call a @vidIQ scam and its not BUT their score sucks ASS. Every single low VidIQ score video goes incredibly well but high 97 score titles/description/thumb - video is a flop. They have to remove their scoring.
Now I definitely know what it might have triggered the inauthentic content wave back in April. My most viewed semi-viral short is about ancient humans hunting animals relentlessly. I unlisted it for a week and made it public again - boom! Got hit with inauthentic content.
Unsatisfying or off-putting content:
Think animal distress, fabricated disasters, disturbing themes, fake celebrity actions, or random AI clips designed to manipulate emotion.
The warning sign: viewers leave the channel, or YouTube itself, unhappy.
Youtube has confirmed to throttle videos deemed AI. Kurzgesagt is the top notch quality channel. I am having exactly the same issue on my 100% human channel. Please can you guys take a closer look? @TeamYouTube
@PhedEU How about when your channel gets hacked and the hacker livestreams scam crypto - briefly suspended but still you get your channel back in 4 hours BUT after every single video is a flop? Is it trust score problem? or coincidence of algorithm shift? I went from 200k average to 2k.
@alexejbkkr There is no appeal process, you just investigate and your channel will be reinstated BUT you have to wipe your computer clean first and change every single password you had. Completely reinstalling the windows is the best way.
@alexejbkkr When you get your session cookies stolen, you don’t get any prompt, the attacker mirrored your browser no-login needed. And because your channel has livestreamed a crypto scam and Youtube immediately flagged and YT took it down.
@wono_strategy Absolutely amazing, I just submitted my packaging, lets see how it plays out. Just a feedback, as a user, I can't find any dedicated button or rerouting page to my submitted packaging to see the process. I can only access it pressing "log in" in the upper corner. Maybe UI bug idk
@MuteeAutomation But you also have this, 12 min video. The more it got views the more CTR and AVD kept climbing up but Youtube stopped impressions at 100k for some reason even though likes and subs are astronomical and positive engagement. Absolutely gutted.
