Yes, unfortunately it's a bit like trying to run a hotel and not being able to take Visa or Mastercard- just Discover Card. Alternatives in this case don't really help, it's marketshare that produces the income.
Not sure the analogy holds when Visa and Mastercard repeatedly warn the hotel they’re violating their ToS, but the hotel dgaf
If the complaint is "your hotel is made of brick" and it's not in the ToS that's a problem. YouTube can't actually cite which of their rules I'm violating- in fact according to their rules I'm fine, and the thing they do have a problem with- my physical shape, would require surgery to bring into compliance with their demands. I'm not doing that.

She replied by posting long, detailed videos of her making stuff. An hour of cutting aluminum extrusions with a chop saw and putting together a frame. Soldering PC boards. Eventually, the guy apologized. One of the useful things she's done is to put up lo…

For any Westerners here who seem to have a hard time understanding why this is wrong: Look at an even more women-oppressing culture such as that of Afghanistan under the Taliban. Women are required to cover their faces in public. Why? For "modesty." What it boils down to is that if women show their faces it could have a negative effect on men (sexual attraction). A lot of people where are shaming her for being essent…
I totally support being able to express yourself. All power to Wu, but I could not care less about this channel. It feels very misplaced and fake. Feels like going half naked to a childrens party.
Didnt this happen before?
Regularly, not sure why this time made HN.
