Does Google's YouTube group host a line of communication between its product managers and content producers? Is there a service agreement between Google and its content producers around features and site behavior that will impact viewers and paychecks?
If not, then content producers are simply in a bad long-term position and they need to start looking for leverage against it, whether it's taking their subscribers elsewhere or getting a seat at Google's table so website and mobile app updates don't start mucking with subscribers getting their content to users.
OTOH, as a user, I don't want to be inundated with notifications and especially begging notifications if I unsubscribe to someone.
- fgandiya 10y agoYouTube has a lot of flack for not communicating well with creators. Things only get done if lots of pans are run when the creator makes a video on how limited the channels of communication are with YouTube. I remember Eli the Computer guy talking about how he got two community strikes on some really old videos and couldn't really appeal (I don't think they supported it at the time) it. It wasn't until he made enough noise that he was finally able to get a rep from YouTube. YouTube is a good platform and I can't think of any competitors as good as YT, but they really need to improve communication with the creators.
