Hey, what's up guys, Joker here!

Today I'm excited to be joining the Steemit & D-Tube community. I run a full-time Youtube channel by the same name, Joker Productions where I've amassed 117K subscribers and counting. The main focus of my channel is PC Gaming and the hardware we use to power it. This includes reviews, news updates on hardware, computer builds and tutorials. I've also recently started a cooking channel as its a big passion of mine so chances are that content may show up here as well.

Why am I joining this community? As many people know back in early 2017 the adpocalypse hit content creators pretty hard. Initially this did not seem to effect my content as its not particularly edgy apart from the occasional angry rant about the industry. However, as the months went by I began to see almost every single one of my videos being demonetized with zero explanation as to why it was happening. This caused a lot of financial strain on me and that has continued into 2018.

So, I'm done sitting around and waiting for Youtube to straighten their shit out. I feel that many content creators including myself have been disenfranchised by the platform and rather than recommending good content to the viewers, they've opted to favor any one of the daily late night tv shows. Everyone deserves a fair chance to make it on any platform and the fact that they show clear and documented bias to "big Hollywood" is demoralizing to say the very least.

Moving forward I'll be uploading content here as well as Youtube as its still my main stream of revenue, but as time goes on who knows what will change. If things continue the way they are, I see Youtube becoming a dead platform which greatly saddens me. Because while I love my community on Youtube and the job freedom I've had for these past few years has been nothing short of life changing for me, I just can't predict how long that will be feasible.

So I hope you join me along on this journey for my videos and written content that will be posted here. Thank you very much for allowing me to join this community and taking the time to read my introduction.

Sincerely,

Craig aka "Joker"
