Truth is stranger than fiction and this story is still ongoing. If you are currently following on Instagram or in the CO Fans Facebook Group you’ve seen what’s still going on as I type this. Short version, I have been on a YouTube hitlist for years and it came to a head over this last weekend. My channel is DONE. All videos prior to May 2022 are up on Rumble (link below). UPDATE 5/4: I have hired someone to update all past embedded videos from YouTube to Rumble so the website will be back to normal soon

All new videos going forward are here and linked on every new post:

As of right now, Instagram is by far the most trafficked platform for views and participation. If you want to engage with people in comments, that’s going to be your place to do it for now at least. YOU DO NOT NEED AN ACCOUNT JUST TO VIEW. You only need one if you want to participate. Every post here going forward has direct links to the video, and it just plays for you, just like YouTube used to.

This turned out to be a blessing in disguise! My channel had been under so many restrictions for years (demonetized, shadow banned, no internal promotion, subscribers being unsubscribed, no notifications going out etc.), the numbers were suppressed beyond belief. Now that I’m free and posting on platforms with no restrictions, engagement is through the roof! As good or better views and hundreds of new followers a day, without any promotion up to now!

As of right now my ban is SUPPOSED TO end Saturday morning (it’s Wed morning right now). If they don’t outright delete me before then, I hope to get out one last simple video, informing everyone of what this post says. I have little faith I’ll be able to though.

As you can see, I am still posting to the site, new vids have still gone up, and you can get a feel for how things will be. I am still working through workflows, tweaking how everything is going to be, so there will be little changes here and there going forward, short term. But thanks for watching and here’s to VIDEO FREEDOM!
