Youtube is again KILLING animation.

Описание: Youtube is again KILLING animation.

‪@YouTube‬ ‪@youtubecreators‬ ‪@YouTubeCreatorsDE‬ Hi everyone! Just yesterday, I received an email stating that my YouTube channel has been demonetized due to "Reused Content." This means I can no longer earn revenue from my channel.

Even worse, if my appeal is rejected, YouTube will withhold my earnings for February and March. The most frustrating part is the reason given: it implies I’m creating serial or repetitive content just to farm views without any educational or creative value.

First of all, I am an animator. I create all my animations from scratch using Moho. In recent months, I’ve been focusing on Shorts, and every single video has a unique script. Each video is a creative challenge featuring characters from video games, cartoons, and more—all of which have a clear plot and meaning.

I have the project source files for every single video I’ve made.

I don't understand why YouTube flagged this as "Reused Content." This is 100% original animated work that doesn’t exist anywhere else. It’s ironic because creators who simply record gameplay—something thousands of people do identically—often keep their monetization, while original animation is being targeted. If we follow YouTube’s current logic, gameplay should be banned entirely, yet it isn't.

I know many creators are suffering from these unfair strikes right now, but I also know that many have successfully appealed and had their monetization restored after YouTube admitted the mistake.

I really hope the YouTube team sees this and restores my monetization. Good luck to everyone, and I hope you never have to deal with this issue.
