How I Fixed "Shadowban" in YouTube

If you follow me you maybe know that I started my live streamer’s journey at the begining of this year. At first I just did live coding sessions called “Rock. Code. (N)VIM.” on Twitch.. After a while I started to publish the sessions to YouTube. Since I mostly stream weekly my views count grew week to week until October, 14 when it fall down rapidly. 👇 What Happened? At this time I switched from publishing videos from Twitch to YouTube to streaming to both Twitch and YouTube at once. During setting up YouTube livestream configuration I decided that I do and tell nothing bad so they are good for children. I thought if I put “yes” for “video for kids” it will make video’s audience wider. As a result for the next month I had less than 10 daily viewers, sometimes even 0. I start to think it was a shadowban. On the Nov, 16 I’ve uploaded my first shorts video and shared it on my X (Twitter). I’ve got a couple of positive responses there but only 2 views. This was too strange and made me investigate. What I discovered that YouTube show my video only to 12 potential viewers. Seems too small to make it popular. I was shocked. Not sure why but I decided to change the “video for kids” to “no”. The results was and still is amazing. You can see them in the top post image. 👆 I changed this setting for my livestream and live recordings. My channel was reborn. That’s awesome.

Будда - мой психотерапевт

По данным ВОЗ, ежегодно от депрессии умирает около 800 тыс. человек, причем основная часть это молодые люди до 30 лет. Коварство этого недуга заключается в том, что больной депрессией, зачастую, даже не осознает, что у него проблемы и продолжает жить, как ни в чем не бывало. Часто, но далеко не всегда, депрессия связана с профессиональным выгоранием.  С конца 2018 года эта участь постигла и меня. За 2 года я сгорел настолько, что к середине 2021 поймал себя на мысли, что сожалею, что не умер от КОВИДа. В этот момент стало понятно, что само не пройдет и надо что-то делать.

How To: Build Docker Image for Phoenix Application

Deploying your project to a bare metal server or VPS like described in the previous article is fine at the very begining. But when it comes to thousands or even better millions of users it becomes necessary to scale the deployment. This is where docker comes into play. It has gained immense popularity in recent years due to its ability to simplify the deployment process and create isolated environments for applications. Allowing developers to package their applications along with all the necessary dependencies into a single container and making it easier to deploy and run the application on any platform docker has become an industry standard.
