My thoughts
In response to the July 1, 2022 #WANSHOW @LinusTech Topic #2 regarding YouTube moderation tools...
LTT is NOT ALONE when it comes to the need for YouTube to fix, update, and build better tools for content creators.
Echoing Linus's remarks, these problems are not mere complaints from large channels but are instead a more serious and widespread problem across the platform.
It should not require being a big enough channel to have a chat with a channel manager in order to be able to report these issues.
Fixing these issues would help creators of channels of all sizes and make the platform more accessible for users.
Ignoring these problems is not an acceptable solution.
Features like automatic ban of illicit/explicit chats should be available for all creators as part of the standard moderation toolset.
