Share your channel link, I wouldnt mind seeing myself what theyre considering as repetitive content. Seems like a cop out of not paying people once they reach the threshold. Theres plenty of channels that specialise in just one thing and do similar videos on a daily basis.

I would say its because of how theyre done on a computer, if they were hand coloured in surely they wouldnt have such an issue with it (never know though). I think anything that hints at automation they have problems with. I know there are countless other channels doing colouring in just like that making a fortune but thats the every day BS that goes on at YT, they are never fair and allow others to get away with all sorts. Really creators these days dont have a leg to stand on.

I aint really sure but anything done daily now seems to be questionable to them. Really goes against their old recommendation of making more content of what is working for you and also goes completely against the idea of niche channels providing content each day around the same subjects. No one can trust YouTube any more because they enforce these rules on new channels yet have thousands of channels making a fortune doing the same thing each day and have been for years. In the past two years they have ruined the experience of being a creator in my opinion, people once had hopes of making a channel and earning from the videos they love making. Now they need to work their backsides off for about a year without any kind of payment and HOPE that they will be able to monetise with barely any explanation when denied it. I really dont see much of a future at the moment for new creators because of this.

I put only 3 videos by week. I see thousand of asian channel wich spamming stupid videos with the same thumbnails, tags in title and description, etc. I reported those channels but they are still monetised. It's disgusting for me, I put a lot of effort to draw and they told me repetitious content. Search the "android gameplay" channel on youtube....

YouTube realised there were a lot of kids channels, tops 10s, compilations, music, etc etc so they decided to deny or remove monetisation from those channels by calling it Reused Content. Here's a better explanation from Longzijun:

2.3 Videos that have been done to death already. A good example of that would be ‘learn color’ and ‘baby shark song’ animations. There are tens of thousands of these videos on YouTube already. They do get a lot of views, but children really need to learn more than what the videos are offering. Channels specializing in these kinds of videos are not getting monetized. Another problem affecting these kinds of animated kids videos is that they are targeting toddlers while YouTube (and its advertisers) are targeting people 13 and over.

Yes I know, other channels are doing it! I guess big channels can keep doing this OR they will eventually be reviewed and YouTube will remove monetisation from their channels. They've done this with 100K+ and 1M+ subs channels so you can just wait and see.

I would say that all channels are repetitive to some extent?
Whether you draw in every video or play an istrument in every video or you turn wrenches on engines?
Can you appeal?
