I feel like I've spent a lopsided amount of time complaining about the ongoing fight with YouTube over the past few months so I thought that I'd share some good news. In spite of the uphill struggle and literally having to make my case for every....single.....video, the channel has experienced some phenomenal growth recently.
Since January 15th, the channel has received over 100,000 views per day, which has been unheard of up to this point. I've had a few spikes here and there where the channel went about that mark for a few days but then settled back down. Seeing those numbers sustained over this period of time is definitely a new thing. Just yesterday, the channel had over 270,000 views, which is a new record.

The one video that is largely responsible for this uptick is the re-uploaded version of the Dachau video. I absolutely hated posted a sanitized version of that video (which has already been sanitized to begin with), but I guess it all works out in the wash. Aside from more people being exposed to the history, this video is also serving to bring about awareness to YouTube's ridiculous policies that are suppressing history videos like this one.
I don't say any of this to brag but rather to throw out something positive and to thank you all for your continued support and for helping to spread the word about this channel. Hopefully, it's doing some good in some small way. Thanks!
