🚨WE ARE NOT GOING AWAY!
WE WILL CONTINUE TO SPREAD AWARENESS UNTIL @TeamYouTube NOTICES!!!!
There are now 48 confirmed demonetized channels, most of whom are animators.
OVER 4.7 MILLION COMBINED SUBSCRIBERS.
None of us are even acknowledged!
We are still waiting for answers.
How many more channels need to be demonetized?
How many more creators need to speak up before you acknowledge this problem?
You cannot keep ignoring an entire community of creators whose livelihoods are affected by the same issue.
We will continue speaking out!
We will continue spreading awareness!
And we will continue demanding back our monetization!
YouTube,
It's time to listen.
🚨 YOUTUBE IS DEMONETIZING AN ENTIRE COMMUNITY OF ANIMATORS. AND NOBODY IS TALKING ABOUT IT.
This is bigger than one channel. Bigger than one appeal. An alarming number of animation creators are losing their YouTube monetization under the same "Misleading Family Content" policy.
My channel, Pivot Master, has been demonetized for almost 3 MONTHS. And I'm far from the only one.
Here are just some of the affected creators:

More than 29 creators, probably way more that I am not aware of. Countless hours of animation. Years of hard work. And livelihoods being affected.
Animation does NOT automatically mean children's content.
Many of us create content for general audiences, yet our channels are being classified under a policy that we believe does not accurately reflect our work.
And what happens when we appeal?
Automated responses. Rejections. Copy-paste explanations. And creators left fighting to prove that their own content has been misunderstood.
We're want TRANSPARENCY, ACCOUNTABILITY, AND GENUINE HUMAN REVIEWS.
@TeamYouTube @YouTube, please stop treating these as isolated cases.
LOOK AT THE BIGGER PICTURE.
We want our channels reviewed fairly. We want clear explanations. And if these demonetizations are mistakes, we want our monetization restored.
To every animator affected: PLEASE SPEAK UP.

Let's make sure this issue cannot be ignored any longer.
OUR CHANNELS ARE OUR YEARS OF HARD WORK. THEY DESERVE A FAIR CHANCE.

My general thoughts on AI as an artist living with the realities of being Nigerian.
We might be the last generation of Nigerians with the opportunity to cement our identity in games and animation before this AI craze sweeps us all up.
We have a chance to build our own visual languages, tell our own stories, develop our own techniques, and establish what African creativity looks like on the global stage. But that requires us to actually CREATE. Not outsource the creative process to generative AI and call ourselves creators simply because we can prompt a machine. I'm not saying we should ignore HELPFUL technology. I'm saying we need to build a foundation before anything else.
If you're an artist, animator, or game developer, make things. Experiment. Get better. Develop your own visual identity. Build the skills and creative infrastructure that future generations can inherit. Because if we surrender this opportunity, we risk leaving behind an industry where our only contribution is prompting, curating, and consuming outputs from systems trained to reproduce everyone else's ideas of what creativity should look like.
We cannot afford to automate our way out of the very industries in which we are yet to establish ourselves.
I beg of you ...CREATE.
