@demiclauds: To qualify for the Youtube Partnership Program, creators will need 8,000 qualified watch hours (formally 4,000) in 12 months or 20 million qualified shorts views (formally 10 million) in the last 90 days. This change goes live starting February 2027. If you’re looking for a sign to start grinding, now is the time! Best of luck to everyone. What do you think about these new changes? #youtube #youtubenews #youtuber

They’re doing it to combat the ai slop channels that get monetized in less than 3 days

I just made it to monetization and I'm most likely not going to have that watch time doubled by February, easy come easy go I guess 😅

Jokes on them the ai slop will match the requirements before real world creators can and will drive away fresh new creators

I know it’s supposed to combat the AI channels but can they NOT do that while using AI to demonetize other people‘s channels 😭??

Honestly I love it. Too many people are focused on the making money aspect of content creation instead of the love of creativity. It’s resulted in worse and worse content over the years.

"its to combat ai slop" they already meet the requirements, thats WHY theyre a problem. how is doubling that gonna solve anything? maybe hire more REAL WORKERS to monitor/filter those channels than making it harder for content creators to compete with ai.

it's because they're losing money to ai videos I really wish they would just get rid of the AI channels that way they will get their money back and the people that actually make content will get more money

There’s gotta be somewhere else folks can go, or at least someone should build something kinder to small creators

I mean it won’t be that much harder cus social media growth is exponential just focus on making better videos everytime essentially the gap between 4k-8k is a lot less than 0-4k cus you’ll have momentum
