How much views a video needs in order to start getting money from youtube? Is it like an option to turn on in the youtube account for payed ads or something?

(Not changing professions just yet, I'm just curious ;) )

The current partner requirements are pretty much joke. Nowdays anyone can be a partner if the want to and it leads to the annoying "look at my channel / shoutout me" comments in the videos and PMs.

Anyways, you just need 1,300 subs, channel clean from copyrighted content and some views. After you have done that you get contacted, agreement and then you can add AdSense ads boxes to the video pages and earn tiny amount of money. If you get a lot of views, you get more.

Alternatively, if you are bad big boy, you could just become blackhat seo and build sites with just Ads on them, linkfarms and get 10x more as you can get way more views with less of a work ;)

Where are you getting your information? That's not true at all. They made it a lot harder to become a partner now days. They have no set requirement for the amount of subs you need to become a partner or anything.

Darn, need to have a clean youtube record / without copyright infringement? Guess my idea is out. I wanted to become internet-famous by doing covers of songs and voice acting for anime similar to that of LittleKuriboh and TeamFourStar.

Meh, I'll do it anyway.

I know many people who do covers to songs. Or, what you could do is do covers of songs that are popular that way you get a lot of views, and when you apply for partnership just private all the videos with copy written material.

Oh, I see. Didn't realize you'd still get a partner request. I don't plan on starting the project for a while, though. For now I just upload piano / instrumental covers/remixes like every half a year... :p

You don't get partner request, you have to apply. If a video of yours starts getting a lot of views very fast then they will automatically send you a request to put ad revenue on JUST that one video, but to get ads on all of your videos you have to apply.

I've been dancing in my underwear on YouTube for years, and I've only made $7.

And they said that youtube isn't making money... Yeah right.

Are you saying that Google is lying in their financial statements filed with the government, and in all their interaction with the media? Quite the conspiracy you're suggesting. I think there's a separate forum section for that. Reality is probably simpler. Google made $2bn overall in the first three months this year, so they can afford to spend money on things they believe are important to their long term strategies.

    • Zed 1.7.2 has landed with updated OpenCode models, bug fixes and other improvements

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Zed 1.7.2 has landed with updated OpenCode models, bug fixes and other improvements by David Uzondu Zed 1.7.2 recently landed on the stable release channel, bringing a host of AI-related features including automatic context compaction and settings-based skill management, along with other things like better Markdown preview rendering and custom git commands in the graph view. Starting with the AI stuff, the developers introduced "/compact", a command that basically summarizes your conversation history on demand. This tool prevents your active chat window from hitting token limits by compressing older parts of the dialogue into a brief overview. In addition to that, the team relocated skill management to the settings UI, improving how the application communicates errors regarding those skills, and updated the OpenCode model roster to support DeepSeek V4 Flash, MiniMax M3, Qwen 3.7 Plus, and Nemotron 3 Ultra Free. External agent users can also monitor context window cost metrics and delete individual sessions directly from their history. Right-clicking ref labels in the git graph now opens a context menu that runs different actions against selected targets, kind of how VS Code does it. Here are some of the bug fixes this new release brings: The active agent fails to auto-select when creating a new git worktree. A scrollbar unexpectedly appears on wrapped code blocks in the agent chat. Collapse indicators for project headers appear when performing sidebar searches. Bracketed ellipsis title prefixes fail to show the ellipsis icon properly. Project icons render incorrectly in the recent projects picker. Diff hunk controls appear inside non-editable commit view multibuffers. The software update button hangs indefinitely on the downloading stage. Restoring an agent terminal in a remote project triggers a sudden crash. Splitting a pane that contains an active commit view causes a crash. Linux Wayland freezes when trying to read the clipboard from laggy external apps. Zed is a "newish" code editor trying to break the massive stronghold VS Code has on the developer community. Funny enough, the editor was created by former GitHub employees who worked on the Atom text editor (which Microsoft killed in 2022, several years after it bought GitHub). The project officially hit version 1.0 back in April, introducing platform parity for Windows and Linux alongside deep support for DeepSeek-V4-Pro.

      26H2 absolutely will support ARM Windows just not on devices that came with 26H1. This is evident by the fact I am running 26H2, which on my MacBook Neo and Surface Pro 12 (inch), within a VM.

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2, urges IT admins to prepare for release

      By WrongHead™ · Posted

      It’s amusing how Microsoft is pushing IT admins as if this was a major, game-changing update. In reality, it’s just an enablement package that bumps the build number, which is disappointing compared to the more substantial 22H2 and 24H2 releases. Technically, 25H2, 26H1, and the upcoming 26H2 are essentially the same, differing only in support schedules. They could have included the Windows K2 improvements here, but chose not to. The era of Windows being in the backburner continues, and this 26H2 release feels like an afterthought. Shame, Nadella, shame.
