Based on the feed back from many different YouTubers now @TeamYouTube!
YouTube is infact broken. Notifications are not working. And people are getting recommended videos that are two months to two years old.
Youtubers are experiencing a 20% to 30% loss in views.
That’s why they aren’t really noticed but I think it’s unfair to put all youtubers in the same box of clickbaiting, money hungry, scumbags if that makes sense. You’re right though, they’re not nearly as successful unfortunately
