'YouTube has decided our Arc A380 review is "18+ only" and "not suitable for ads." This hurts views and revenue. Please share the video around manually since YouTube is restricting who sees it! https://youtu.be/La-dcK4h4ZU There's not much that's more discouraging in this space than working almost 24 hours straight on a review, producing very high quality testing and video, and then getting told "you don't deserve to make money on this because reasons we won't explain instituted by people we won't put you in contact with." Despite having 1.6M+ subs, we no longer have a creator contact at YouTube because it's a revolving door position with a new employee every few months. Hoping this makes it back to them somehow and they fix the ad qualifications of the Arc review.'
Completely absurd. Same for Facebook too. You can spend thousands of dollars on the Facebook/Instagram Ad platform but apparently that's not good enough to get you a dedicated rep who you can call.
TIL Arc A380 is (1) an Intel product that (2) is a standone GPU card, and is (3) available only in China, and (4) performs worse than comparably priced things from AMD and NVidia.
some have have speculated that is was related to their critical video(s) on Artesian Builds (a now defunct boutique system builder) and the owner of such.

This single account generates >20K of pure profit to Google every single month, still too small to provide someone with a pulse.
This is the problem with building your business on someone else's property. They can screw you at any time.
Absolutely disrespectful.
But I also see the trend that they intend to rely a lot on upscaling. There's so much of the chip dedicated to AI/video stuff compared to good old 3D
Edit: My mistake. The video with the words was their most recent one - https://youtu.be/AN8ZAf15DrM?t=1083
Really? Who reviewed this so poorly?
