STEEMIT Just Kicked YOUTUBE In The SHINS! OUCH! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F20EsNs6oKY Hey All! We are an off grid family that live in the American Ozarks! My wife and I have 2 kids and we live together with her parents on 56 acres. We are only tied to the grid here via a DSL line that we power with solar power. We've been doing this for 5 years now and LOVE living this way. Recently our Youtube channel was flagged with Youtube's new algorithm that pulls what it believes is non-advertiser friendly content. It was a video showing how we process our own grass fed non-commercially raised animals. We appealed their ruling and they replied with, "After further review, we've determined that while your video does not violate our Community Guidelines, it may not be appropriate for a general audience." What is the point of having rules if you're still going to punish the people who obey them? It was clear we didn't violate any rules but someone sitting behind a Youtube computer (who obviously buys their burgers from a drivethru) didn't like our video. We've had lots of videos flagged before but this was the first appeal we've lost and it was a video that was going viral. So I started looking for alternatives. It seems that lots of content creators were jumping the Youtube ship convinced it had struck an iceberg. THEN I FOUND STEEMIT! So here we are. We're loving it so far and look forward to putting up lots of original content only found on this platform. I'm glad to be getting in on the ground floor. I'm loving what you are doing! BE SURE TO FOLLOW ME!! THANKS! ![resteem.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmdAkKY2xg6JwkgEkAbdkDtSnnBNNELBAoHBkWmBGXdQ4V/resteem.jpg)
