THE WONDER OF YOUTUBE MATH - AKA CUTTING MORE PEOPLE OFF THE PAYROLL




So here are 3 different places Google tells me how many subscribers I have on YouTube - what is the correct one? or, are none of them correct? Makes a good case for paying Google to keep statistics for you now don't it?

As well there is this bizarre bug in the Studio app on my phone. I have 3 accounts on all my Android devices. Now and then when I reply to a comment or comment on a video, it will come up with the wrong account for some reason. I mean, I'm logged into the AxeMoose account and it popps up with my TheBrokenMoose account on the comment or reply for some reason.

I've also been talking with people and it seems that most people have had a sharp drop in view count and minutes watched this last while. I'm wondering if they are trying to weed out some more of the small YouTubers from the payed end of things.

I mean most of the people I talked about are down literally 60% on view time and like 40% on view count. How does that even work? Should then not be about the same? Not like I would put ads on even if I qualified - I did qualify for years and NEVER put ads on. I do toss a link for donations though as many people do these days.

    I think it is funny how when you go to your sub list by far the most are invisible like they dont really exist.

      You can turn that off in settings. Default is to be hidden I think.

HOW TO FIX BLOGGER FROM DOUBLE SPACING LINES OF TEXT

Image
When you click on the editor to type text, it changes to "Paragraph" instead of "Normal". This causes there to be a double space between lines. If your trying to do a list, this is a serious piss off. So you have to click where it now says "Paragraph" and set it back to "Normal". I've had it a couple times not stay, and had to select all then set it to Normal again. As well it puts in a leading space (indentation of 1 space) you may want to delete as well, or your list won't look quite right at the top. It used to stay where you put it, but now it just up and changes it to Paragraph for literally no reason - even if you first set it to Normal - you click and POOF it changes.

Matilde Vicenzi Cookies Are Great

Image
Was sent these by a good friend for a birthday gift. They are really very good. Quite possibly the best cookies I've had in years. I tried them all, and I like the white one you see in the bottom picture, as it had a lemon taste to it. Some had a bit of liquid chocolate in them and where very good as well. Like normal, the ones with the bit of jam in them where a bit too sticky and chewie. But I seriously enjoyed all of them. These are great. I'm going to look them up on Amazon and if they are not too much money, I'm getting more for Christmas. OK just looked it up and NOPE, it's $28 a can. They are very good, but that is a bit out of my price range. But the usual Christmas Danish Butter Cookies are also kind of a lot of money now as well. They are also a bit moist, and not super dry like usual. Also not powdery like a lot of them do. I'd give these an 8/10 and would recommend highly.

Had a Great Birthday Lunch

Image
Went out on the 14th for my birthday lunch with friends. It was very enjoyable. I got the Jambalaya pasta and a Doctor Pepper (free refills so I had 3). Because I was celebrating my birthday, I got an ice cream sandwich for free and the "birthday song" sang to me. In the photo you see what my friends got me - Kicking Horse 454 Coffee and Double Chocolate TimTams, and a card. Earlier I posted a review of cookies I was sent by another friend. I also got some silverware. This is literally the first time in my life I have new silverware. I had been using very old ones for many years - at home with my parents, they had an even older set. I also never owned a salad fork LOL. There was no tea spoons with it, so I have older tea spoons still. I tried to look for just tea spoons, but they came in large numbers and I don't need 60 of them, I just want 4. I also got a total of $140 gifted to me by several nice people. I got some stuff I need and a toy I wanted (personal kind of toy)
