After over a decade of creating content on YouTube — through demonetization, algorithm changes, and the occasional existential crisis — I’m starting to suspect that my channel might be trapped in some sort of digital purgatory.

This episode digs deep into the mystery of YouTube’s algorithm: Why do older channels seem to vanish from feeds? Can a creator ever recover from being demonetized? And what happens when your best videos get buried by the machine that used to lift you up?

I’m sharing my personal story — how I'm rebuilding after demonetization, embraced SEO tactics, and still saw my reach collapse. I’m also toying with my next move: a bold new experiment called Egotastic JP, maybe? Where I’ll test whether the problem is me... or the platform.

If you’ve ever felt like your channel stopped existing overnight, this one’s for you.
