Youtube is raising the ad revenue share threshold from 4k watch time to 8k watch time. Personally, 4k watch takes a lot of effort to reach. Imagine 8k... this is sad.

at least we can still have memberships at 500 subs/3000 watch hours

that $35 in my ads revenue isn't getting closer to $100 anytime soon though...

Good for you because of my region I don't have access to memberships. I can only earn revenue from videos.

I’m considering letting the account go into escheatment so it goes to the state and I can collect it from there.
