I’m looking forward to seeing how you affect change that helps those of us who create content, especially those of us who struggle to get through the issues of subscriptions and views.

I would like KZitem to represent the "audience". Seems their structure is to promote only the largest creators which is great for the old business model of broadcast networks but if I want something suggested to me I would appreciate both the brand new creator and the established creator represented equally leveling the playing field and offering the chance for exposure for everyone.

As an aspiring creator, I want to start a youtube channel but it seems so vast and overwhelming to start. Could you build a playlist or something with some other creators to help dumb down the "algorithm" garbage? I want to just be able to find my audience and provide value to them. Just this whole being forced to do certain things to reach people bc of "algorithms" is a bit overwhelming. Thanks!

Congratulations, and best of luck! It's great that they're doing this, but I wonder if there really needs to be a team, since there are many different kinds of content creators. For example, political channels, gun channels, etc. are more likely to have concerns that can be addressed than, say, tech channels.

On the TeamKZitem thing. I've seen a few instances where creators feel the need to tweet at KZitem or TeamKZitem on Twitter to get anything done. I'm not a creator but it seems very wrong that creators with 1M+ subs need to go to another platform to publicly call out KZitem just to get an issue looked at.

Wow, how bittersweet this is to hear. I've relied on this channel, your opinions, to be the reasonable amongst the unreasonable, to be objective, to look at both sides. It is important to have someone with intimate knowledge of the innerworkings of Apple to give us both sides of a topic. This channel has been my favorite, my go to, for Apple coverage, since before you went rogue (or indie; maybe rogue is too strong lol). It's unfortunate that that will mostly be ending. But as far as your advocating or being a liaison between creators and KZitem, I can think of no better candidate. So to that end, I could not be happier for you. It has been an honor being entertained by you, learning from you. Best of luck in your new position, Rene.

In the case of KZitem, the might also but also understand the need to keep a real channel to make your position legit (vs ivory tower). I'm sure all that was discussed in depth. Are there restrictions or topics you have agreed not to cover as part of your employment with KZitem?

I'll be honest, Rene isn't the first creator I'd want to be put in this position, definitely not the last either, but he feels closer to the corporate side of things as opposed to the pro-consumer side. While he is critical of KZitem, it feels like not enough to push for real execution and not have his views distorted once inside KZitem. But maybe I'm too cynical, just my cents

Congratulations on your new job René! I will only ask you, as liaison, please pay special attention to smaller creators at the fringes, and to awful situations regarding copyright content trolling (the recent debacles with Fran Blanche from FranLab come to mind, and judging from some of the reactions you’ve shown, you seem to be on the right track). I know you are picking well-known names and faces for this video because those are, well, famous and relatable, but the truth of the matter is that many of the people you’ve just featured never really *needed* a liaison to thrive in KZitem in the first place (not all of them are on Linus Sebastian’s level, but most have more than enough fans to do that pressure work on their behalf); on the other hand, for those who might need it for just barely scraping by, well… A liaison is probably not enough. Proper support is paramount, and Google really needs to stop focusing mainly on advertisers and up their game when it comes to creators and consumers. You can start by telling that to your higher-ups. 🤷♂️

Please tell KZitem to add password locks for videos I want unlisted? Making videos private involves me connecting people's gmails in order for them to see a vid, and not everyone has a gmail. And we all know how some videos leak when someone guesses the unlisted video's URL, or someone leaks the URL in general, or how an unlisted video is added to a playlist by mistake. I'd even be ok with this being a Premium feature.

Congratulations! I'm sure this new job will keep you busy! You might want to check in with the channel by Rick Beato. He'll also have plenty to say about copyright issues, and in fact testified before Congress about them. I'll add that you can replace the word "algorithm" with "audience", but in fact channel authors are dealing an algorithm. It's an algorithm which *intends* to help build success, but it's still an algorithm. Many programs are written with one intent in mind, but have unpleasant side-effects which were not part of their original goal. And the algorithm is meant for *KZitem's* success, not the individual audiences of a wide variety of channel creators.

So honesty stop listening to the rich man whine. He is reaping what he sowed and we all have to suffer his lack of character. He had one chance as an “industry leader” to testify against this system. Instead he got his buddies paid and got to fit in. Now this is what HE and his buddies created. This system is karma. Stop being his personal lapdog and let the grown man solve the issues he created.
