YouTube Killed My Passion Project (& I'm Heartbroken)

I don't know if people heard, but YouTube age-restricted my Sex in Star Trek video today. I've honestly been kind of devastated by the news.... so, I made this, and I would be curious if people think this is a fair and good response before, I post it tomorrow morning

Oh that SUCKS... I don't think I've ever watched her, maybe one video - but considering Abi, Mia Mulder, Kat Blaque and now Lily (among others I'm sure, I just remember my YT subs off the top of my head) I'm surprised a "creator-run" platform tolerates such a blatant bigot. Maybe she's already bought in, and unless she tried to post something transphobic on the platform they can't boot her. I don't know how it works, just that Nebula is supposedly owned by the creators.

Oh, just googled it. Did not know any of that.

What's wrong with Jill Bearup?

I do hope you continue with this series, despite the drenching of your enthusiasm. I don't know anything about how Youtube decides such things, but if I had to guess I would say that the images from Lower Decks were the reason. (TheSingularParent)

J, as content creators have you talked to Sexplanations Dr Doe? Her content is way more explict and nothing like your content. She may have advice on how to deal with the algorythm. The video was fantastic and I really want to see another like that.

So sorry, Jessie. I can hear the pain in your voice. And the timing with Christmas and you spending it alone. You did make a good decision for the longterm, financially and healthwise, but that does not make it an easy decision or lessen the pain of missing your family at this time. But you are not isolated and you have so many people (a whole comminity) who care and support you. I hope that gives some strength and comfort when you need it. I hope you got your gaming group plan for Christmas day together.

I hope you'll succeed in getting on Nebula. Unfortunately they do tolerate one Jill Bearup, but so does YT. OTOH Lily Alexandre is on there, and Abby Thorn too.

I finally became a patreon specifically because they age restricted your amazing video. ❤

2 weeks of preparation and approved. well, that appears to be youtube being up to it's old tricks. can we appeal to youtube on your behalf?

Wellington Marcus

Shared this and the original video to some discord servers I think would appreciate it.

I also raised my Patreon level to support this particular series and all the amazing work Jessie does!!

That's awful news. I'm upping my Patreon tier in response. It's not much, but I'm tired of these platforms having so much power to make or break the livelihoods of the content creators I love.

I shared it last Friday as I thought it was an important thing for people to see about Trek. I'd like to share this video as well. Is there anything else we can do on our end? Petitions? Can we make appeals on your behalf?

Your video was so well made, informative, fun and full of emotion. It's absolutely absurd that they did this. Given the circumstances I'd say this was a more than reasonable response and valid criticisim. It makes me so made to see the ignorant and and arrogant kind of abuse you recieve. I'm so sorry that you're feeling so down this Christmas. Best of luck with the upcoming surgery and know that you'll find a way through this and you have so much support from us. Happy Christmas.

It's absolutely absurd that they did this. Given tbe circumstances, I'd say that this was a more than reasonable and fair response. Your video was so well made, interesting , and full of emotion. It makes me so mad to see the sort of ignorancand arrogance
