This is what happens when you promise ad revenue, and then slowly, without any information, begin shadow banning channels and videos, meanwhile YouTube still runs ads and gets the cut. You will get crazy people who depend on YouTube for income, and then without any warning your income is slashed. Did you break the terms? No. Did you get banned? No. You just get 1/8th the views because who knows why?
Well you say to yourself, just go somewhere else. Where? There is no video platform that offers the ability to advertise like YouTube that has even close the amount of eye balls. Well then just use Patreon! Yeah good luck getting people to sign up unless you're wildly popular and do this as your day job. You're basically squeezed into this hole where you were making money, enjoying what you were doing, and trying to build something with YouTube, and now you're trying to read between the lines of what is advertiser friendly and won't get your shadow banned. It's an abusive relationship that people who have money think you should just do something else.
