Age-Gated Content
Added 2022-08-28 00:43:13 +0000 UTCHey there everyone,
I hope you're having a great weekend! So, as a lot of you know, my YouTube videos haven't been getting the same recommendations or views lately as they used to. Started around January when a lot of my videos, old ones and new ones, started getting hit with the dreaded 18+.
I've been informed by someone who actually has a manager who works with YouTube that when you have multiple 18+ videos on your channel, the algorithm stops recommending your channel to people under 18, and even stops recommending them to people over 18 who don't usually watch 18+ content. But it can possibly be fixed by deleting your 18+ stuff (unlisted and private isn't good enough). So I'm going to do that tonight.
Some of my videos that have been hit are so random, like Part 2 of the Camp video series (even though the full series as one video is perfectly fine), and yet my video about the history of gay porn (which talks about porn, underage porn, and murder) is also perfectly fine.
Anyway!
I don't want you guys going without access to the videos. They wouldn't exist without you. Hell, my channel as a whole wouldn't exist without you! So I've put them up on Vimeo and you can find the links below. Hopefully this will clear up the mess and my channel will go back to normal with the next video? Hopefully? Fingers Crossed.
