After months of stonewalled appeals, impossible demands, and zero human reviews, YouTuber are abandoning that platform in droves. In this raw episode, I break down exactly how YouTube’s broken AI system is destroying independent creators, why I no longer believe human reviewers exist, my $10,000 challenge to meet one, and the abusive “ex-spouse” behavior that finally made me walk away. If you’re a creator who’s been demonetized, gaslit, or stuck in the endless appeal loop — this is for you. Real stories, hard truths, and what’s next for those of us leaving YouTube behind.
