Imma be honest, some of the things you replace censored words with sound worse than the actual words T-T
Thank you for your service, censoring with words that definitely aren’t better, just not filtered.
Thanks, I appreciate that at least some people understand that I don't want to censor my videos. Unfortunately YouTube is ran by dumbasses, and some people might think it's unnecessary, but trust me it is. It's not just a matter of videos being monetizable either, I can confirm with 100% certainty that YouTube will "shadowban" videos with certain words/phrases, even if they are considered monetizable. It's to the point where I have posted videos with a word uncensored, then deleted and reposted the video censored like an hour later, and the censored video will have more views in less than 5 minutes than the uncensored video had in an hour. That is not an exaggeration btw, I can remember exact examples. In one video the only thing changed was censoring "virgin" in the phrase "virgin sacrifice". Also, these things are obviously all just an automated part of the algorithm, so they're applied mostly randomly and aren't consistent at all. Not only that, YouTube can also just decide to change their guidelines and/or algorithm and retroactively demonetize videos, so it's better to be safe than sorry. This is why I started censoring my videos in the first place, because they changed the monetization status of basically every video I ever uploaded up to that point. The majority of which were within guidelines, so I had to manually appeal all of those videos. Some of which still aren't monetized today even though they were within YouTube guidelines. TL;DR Fuck YouTube, fuck censorship, and fuck advertisers
