What it's like talking to @TeamYouTube support in 2026. After 5 years of good behavior and no warnings, my account was terminated with no warning or opportunity to make things right. Then they sent me a customer satisfaction survey to see how much I enjoyed the experience. Very black mirror thank you @YouTube . Can I please have another look at my account? I don't promote sexual content or nudity on my channel. I make silly meme videos and react to things. In my linktree, I had a link to other types of content that I don't produce anymore that I forgot to remove. I tried to explain this, but it doesn't seem to matter. Regardless, I don't promote that content in my videos or descriptions, and never have. I believe I've seen some others having their accounts reinstated for the same ban wave linktree issue, but I was denied almost immediately. This is something I could have fixed in one minute with a warning or a strike. Throughout the whole experience I have barely been able to talk to anyone real, getting read from script messages even in the live chat. Ironically, my other channel got a singular warning for the same exact linktree and was not banned until they removed it due to ban evasion. Make it make sense. I don't want to make posts like this, I don't want to cause trouble. But genuinely, what else do I do at this point? I've exhausted all official routes I can and they won't even respond anymore. I feel as though because I'm not big enough, I really don't matter to them. After 5 years of no warnings or strikes, I'm left with nothing. I cannot make a new account or have an account for as long as I live. Is this not extremely harsh? How is that in any way fair when others received a reinstatement or a warning. I'm willing to take down videos, to remove all my descriptions. To adhere to whatever I have to adhere to, but I'm not even being given a chance. I'm willing to do whatever it takes, but even that isn't enough. This whole situation is just so depressing and crushing and I don't know what to do anymore.
