===Black Midi Era/FL Studio=== | ===Black Midi Era/FL Studio=== | ||
One of the main reasons I was even aware of the piano visualizing program I used to make my videos (Sythesia) was because of the "Black Midi" community. | |||
A primary player in that scene is an account known as Gingeas. | |||
I had been subscribed to Gingeas for a while before he had hit 10k and decided to try my luck at a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UA7MB6Yvk3s giveaway video] for FL Studio he had posted. | |||
Somehow I ended up being chosen and because of that video I was able to move to a legit copy of FL studio and could update to the latest version. | |||

On October 15th, 2019 I received several emails - one for each channel I owned - stating that they had been terminated. | |||
The text of the email was as follows: | |||
We'd like to inform you that your channel ArduinoPlays has been terminated because we concluded that it was linked to a channel that is in violation of YouTube's Terms of Service (<nowiki>https://www.youtube.com/t/terms</nowiki>). You can find more information by checking the email inbox of your linked account. | |||
Please be aware that you are prohibited from accessing, possessing or creating any other YouTube accounts unless the linked channel is reinstated. For more information about account terminations and how our Community Guidelines are enforced, please visit our Help Center. | |||
If you would like to appeal the suspension, please submit this form. | |||
While I had received a number of emails about terminations for each account, none of them actually explained why I had been terminated. | |||

I filled out the linked form in an attempt to get to the bottom of what I assumed was an accidental mixup. | |||
==Post-YouTube== | ==Post-YouTube== | ||
Recently talk of so-called "alternative media" has been heating up with accusations of censorship for political reasons. | |||
Unfortunately, I was an early adopter of attempting to find an alternative platform to host my content due to my suspension from YouTube. | |||
Initially, BitChute was poised to become the YouTube alternative, followed by LBRY (now called Odysee). | |||
