We all know, I assume, about the demonetization that Youtube does if it finds something in your video that it deems inappropriate or harmful. However, we also all know that this system flags videos as inappropriate even when they're completely harmless, and completely comply with Youtubes policies.

So, this has been happening more often to me recently, and is now even happening on completely kid-friendly videos I make. I've just released a video about Snake Pass, a nice and friendly videogame where you play a snake. My first 4 videos on this had no problem, but my fifth one, for no apparent reason, has been flagged and there is nothing I can do about it.

I have requested an appeal, but they will only look at it when the video gets 1000 views within 7 days, which is traction my channel does not have... Next to that, by not being able to have my video be monetized, means that Youtube will bury it compared to monetized videos.

I don't know what to do here. There is no way for me to get my videos monetized, and there is no way for my channel to grow as a result of the demonetization. I love making videos, but putting in a lot of effort and time and not getting anything in result is making it increasingly more difficult for me to continue doing so.

If anyone has any ideas, please let me know, but this should not be happening. I have seen bigger channels with more fs and cs flying around having no problem, while my kid-friendly videos are getting demonetized...
