It should be easy to know when you’ve found the official YouTube channel of a creator, artist, brand, or public figure. So in late October, we’re updating what it means for channels to be “Verified” w/ new eligibility criteria & a new look. Details → https://yt.be/help/3QfB pic.twitter.com/JXOvMbkbns
"Is this a popular channel that has a very similar name to many other channels?" So...accounts that are parodied or anything similar will be affected by this. Yeah, no. Lucky me for knowing I'd never be verified, before the change, because I'm trash. XD

Kindve the mindset I’m sitting on with all this lol I’m not good enough to get verified so it doesn’t bother me as much as it ought to.

As a viewer you should still be bothered by it. It’s going to make it harder to distinguish the original sources and real content creators when searching for videos. It can be a helpful indicator that a channel is authentic while searching for stuff to watch.
