My YouTube Channel is Dying, I need suggestions for non pirate content [that you won't hate] to disguise our beloved pirate tutorials in it...

How about a sims 4 let's play legacy?

Hello again,

I am not (and never was) a YouTuber. But the issue is usually the same in all these cases. Google and these other "tech giants" that offer some kind of service for free, rely to a great deal on advertising revenue.

Now, since practically everybody these days uses adblockers, things get tricky. And YouTube has been cracking down everywhere. One of the things I heard of was that the general focus will be more on "family-friendly content", and YouTubers swearing a lot in their videos got caught by the algorithm, and some, or all, won't be able to monetize their videos. I apologize for the vagueness here, and if I don't know all details. I am just replicating from my memory. But yes, there have been numerous algorithm changes. 

I'm also sure that piracy-content will be placed very low, in the algorithm. Either way, one thing you could maybe try is do more streaming, maybe even use Twitch for that, instead of YouTube. Or, maybe try new games.   

Various pundits have also (rightly, in my opinion) pointed out that low-quality/sensationalist content of any kind gets preferred by the algorithm because of its tendency to get viral very quickly. Take those prank or clickbait videos for example. Or to use a more contemporary example, these "fake news" and/or conspiracy-themed videos after some violent/terrorist incidence.

I don't know, this entire streamer/let's player-thing seems to me, that it is only doable if you have the time and resources to do so.
