Update: YouTube Still Broken, but Not for Long (Patreon)

Mia Corruption, it can happen to you, and your family isn't safe.

Here's the inside info (they don't want you to know). I have contacted Google Support 4 separate times, to varying degrees of success. They tried resetting my video twice on the backend, and it didn't work. Now, I have finally gotten in contact with a YouTube partner manager (which is significant as I am not a partner) who can hopefully resolve this issue a lot quicker. I had been waiting on a partner manager's email for an entire week with no luck, until today when the 4th Google Support operator told me to check my email, which prompted me to look in my spam folder where I found it. (Apparently Gmail doesn't recognize its own kind ??). So, now we wait, but still, what I won't get back is the time this took, or perhaps more upsetting, a set of concrete answers.

The scary truth of the matter is, nobody has been able to provide an explanation as to why this happened. The video broke, and YouTube doesn't know why. This will now be an uncomfortable and definitely anxiety-inducing fear for me and, no doubt, a few other creator friends after this lol sorry. The good news (ironically) is YouTube has been seemingly pretty dumbfounded by this problem, which indicates to me, that this is not a common phenomenon, and hopefully won't occur again.

i wanna thank u for ur patience and also to a solid amount of you for signing up to the patreon / raising contributions as a result of this. i have a lot of patreon content ready to release, and will do so once the video is finally back up. i genuinely think it will be back up at some point before Friday, which, thank god, cause I know we're all gonna be busy watching the five nights at freddys movie on Friday October 27th so that would be a non-starter if it came out any later.

thanks for the support, I'll see u soon in less green form.
