How do you, as a platform, help with creators who get hate raids? I've gotten two this week, and it seems like my only hope is moderating half my chat. Any advice? @YouTube

@t_acegolf8 @TheFeatureman @YouTube You’re a terrible person. Those kids are still facing trauma and suffering from what Thomas did, you dont just get rid of a horrible thing like what he did. As long as this predator still has victims, he deserves zero sympathy

@YouTube, why does it lower my quality whenever I watch videos, it lowers it until it reaches its lowest maximum limit. Its annoying, I want my videos to be high quality and not a single setting allows me to do it. Can you please do something about this.

@drmikehart @goddeketal @YouTube account, so that you are a legal, formal, consumer. Then, policies that protects the consumers from being banned, blocked must be in place. The problem is that this should come from the government and they are really happy about banning all over the world.

@idtbh1 @YouTube Sometimes I think the Universe takes too long but I’m not in charge. They don’t let me poke eyes out anymore in this timeline and I work pointlessly just to get kicked in the face constantly so I have my issues but management (The Universe) it all right sometimes.

Very sad. You spend days making a video and posting it on YouTube, and after 5 to 10 days, that video still has 10 views. YouTube needs to fix its algorithm. None of their tutos really help creators. @YouTube @YouTubeCreators

@JeremyECrawford @ToddKenreck @YouTube invocation spells are also on the Arcane list, they have the option of simply taking them as a known spell and casting them regularly. Jump is pretty awful, and Alter Self at level 15? Eh! However Truesight is nice.

@RoyalBoyle78 @YouTube But you didn’t get cheated. You’re creating the issues for yourself. Have had no issues with Xbox or PS5. Gaming has been fantastic on both.
