Surely it changes nothing. If you weren't getting that much watch time wouldn't it take like 25 years to get your first paycheck through adsense?

Never earned much at all anyways, Its still a killing blow

If you never earned much from it it's hardly a killing blow. Don't be a victim and use this as an excuse to be lazy. Earn the subs and you can maybe make a little from it. But tbh, even channels with 1000 subs would only get around $20 a month. Depending on how many uploads/month

You’re missing the biggest issue. Forget the money, us small creators hardly made that anyway. It’s losing access to necessary features that is most upsetting. I need end screens and custom thumbnails to even have the tiniest chance

This is a knee jerk reaction from the community assuming that thumbnails will be removed from channels between 0 and 999 subs. @BrizzyVoices is having a massive discussion with her fans on twitter about it. Somebody has said they have a small non-partnered channel with thumbnails

Actually you may be right about thumbnails. I really hope so
