I feel like such an idiot - safari data clearing tip

The title says it all, I’ve struggled with safari taking up over 100gb of space on my phone and every time I “cleared history and website data” it made little to no difference. I was so frustrated and confused for years. Everyone just kept saying clear history and data…

but it wasn’t working because I was only clearing it for THAT DAY😭 it’s automatically on “today” for the clear timeframe. Yesterday I finally realized I needed to change it to “all history” not just today. Literally 100gb plus of space freed up on my phone! Finally

I also turned off my iCloud safari sync and deleted all data from that off my phone as well. Then turned it back on.

Patreon is offering discounts without my permission?

?? 😂
Okay so I have a completely separate patreon account I use to support other creators and my account AS the creator. I didn’t want to do the whole merged profile thing. So sometimes I’ll view my “creator account” with my “personal account” just to make sure it looks right to other people viewing my page.

I go on my creator page today (with the personal account) and it’s offering a 60% discount to join?? I never set up or authorized any discount? WTF?

I’m getting rid of my “free membership”

I have a YouTube channel and made patreon for exclusive content, but I think I’m going to get rid of my free membership option. I only offered it because I saw other YouTubers doing the same.

I follow a channel that has 80k patreons!! Yes 80k. I thought they were clearing almost 1 mil a month. It turns out they only have 10k paid members (which is still crazy money) and the rest are FREE😭 mind you they don’t offer free content. Why are 70,000 people just lurking on their patreon?

It feels pointless and like people get comfortable being free members instead of being enticed to actually join a paid tier. I feel like getting rid of free memberships would create some FOMO maybe?

I won’t be offering free content there either (because the free content is my YouTube)

Deleting your community posts every time?

So I follow a channel that deletes their community post every time before they post a new one. So on their page it’s just one post all the time.

Does this affect your posts reach? Is it better for your channel in any way? I’m just wondering why they do this. They’re a pretty big channel with 500k subs.

Any suggestions for removing background noise?

So I struggled for a while to find a free app to remove bg noise, it turns out YT offers one (YouTube create) BUT it removes too much noise, there’s no way to control how much it removes.

So it’ll remove my voice sometimes if I yell, laugh, or talk too loud in my video. I don’t have a good mic yet because a good one is too expensive for me right now, so I remove the background noise to improve audio quality.

TLDR: any free apps or websites I can use to remove BG noise that won’t cut out my voice if I yell, laugh or talk loudly at certain parts of the video?

So I have 2k subs, this channel has 60k subs, we both make the same type of content and they just copied my thumbnail!

We both make videos about movies, so the thumbnail is 2 characters from a movie in the exact same scene. There’s no way it’s a coincidence, because even the background is the same and I put the thumbnail together randomly, myself. They used the exact same photos in the exact same order.

I’ve commented on their channel before so I’m sure they know who I am, or even if they just found me through the algorithm (because we make the same content).

I would like them to change their thumbnail as I uploaded my video first. Can I copyright strike them for this? What’s the best way to go about this?

Is there something wrong with Qmee or did they just ban my account for no reason? I’ve been using it for 2 years, all of sudden since last Thursday it keeps saying this:

Snoooooore!
Oh dear - our survey providers seem to be taking a nap!
Unfortunately, our survey providers work in normal, weekday office hours. During these times is when the most amount of surveys are available.
Check back later, you'll get more surveys soon!

I emailed support 3 days ago and no response still. WTF?

So this is kind of weird, when I first started my channel and barely had any subscribers (like less than 100 subs), I would post polls frequently and they would get 100s to 1000s of votes. I make videos about movies, so polls help me gauge what people wanna see. Sometimes I would just ask fun questions (like who is your favorite character etc)

Now I’m a year in, I have 2k subs, and my polls only get 2-3 votes! No exaggeration. Literally only 2-3 votes for the last 5 polls. My videos are still averaging anywhere between 500-10k views.

So I’m just confused, are people not seeing my polls? Are they just not choosing to engage? How can I see the analytics for community posts? Why would I get so many votes as a new channel and barely get any as I grow?
