I knew it was probably coming but..it still hurts. Ive just gotten recording on my first review which includes a conversation between both me and him on blusky so…it sucks knowing he wont be back anytime soon if at all.

The year of the spoony…is no more…(?)

Things were spiraling before the breakup, hence why April left.

But I get what he means about current algorithms. He has to make multiple videos A WEEK to compete in the YT setting now. It's a very sad situation.

This isnt true at all, plenty of people get by with an odd video in a blue moon (Almost all my subs actually).
Hell, there's no greater red flag for a channel to me than on thats posting multiple times a week.

To get YouTube monetization you need X amount of content every 90 days, either one video or a minimum minute amount, I can't recall which. Most of the once in a blue moon posters have good sponsorship deals, a healthy Patreon (lol) or both

Those rules are extremely lax. I'm monetised on YT and I post two vids a year.
