Massive drop in views on kid channels

amazon video direct revenue dropped by 3 times compared to a previous month and 8 times compared to 2019. So these corps are just trying to change policies every year to pay less less and make the most profits. Has anyone noticed? Typical amazon move of reduction.
 
Hi, so in the new year i did a lot of umming and arring aand evenntualky decided i could justify most of my videos as Not For Kids. They are animations primarily aimed at an Adult Fan of LEGO audience (sometimes containing significant historical violence) . Sadly, my channel has flatlined since January.

I'm confused as I expected this to happen to "for kids" videos but it's the NFK videos that are suffering.

Revenue is nice but its not my primary concern - my concern was the disconnect from my community by losing comments etc. As it is, I'm not getting any comments anyway at the moment due to lack of traffic.

Is youtube blocking traffic to my channel because they think I'm cheating the system? Or is it that other LEGO videos that are marked as For Kids are not able to recommend me?

Feeling pretty fed up and demotivated to continue.

How’s everyone’s revenue doing?

Jan and Feb haven’t been completely awful, surprisingly. The past two weeks in particular have been better on average than August last year.

All my videos are marked for kids.
 
Hi!

My revenue is not much worse than a year go. But my channel was smaller a year ago, so this is not the best comparison. Looking at the statistics the biggest jump came in March. So I'm still waiting, but I don't think there is a chance it will grow significantly.
 
My CPM's are about 60% less, than a year ago. But it looks like YouTube is recommending my videos in a very effective way cause I have never had so many views per day. I guess they're trying to somehow compensate for the lower CPM's. Thanks to that my revenue dropped around 30%, not 80%, so it's not as terrible as they announced. We'll see how it goes...
