The YouTube support loop is a joke: Fake humans and dead links

Just to show exactly how broken and automated the YouTube support system is:

  1. An automated bot flagged my channel with two strikes.

  2. I immediately deleted both videos.

  3. I contacted support and received a reply from a bot pretending to be a human named “Csilla”.

  4. “Csilla” told me they can’t do anything about it, and instructed me to just click the “appeal” link in the original email.

  5. But here is the catch: you cannot appeal a deleted video!

So, a robot punishes my channel, another robot disguised as a human answers my email, and then sends me back to a form where appealing is technically impossible because the videos are already gone. The entire support process is a fake, endless loop.
