Welcome everyone to another amazing edition of the monthly Freedom Newsletter! A great community deserves a great summary of the past month’s events and happenings which help us all improve and grow!



ENCOURAGING FEEDBACK FROM YOUTUBE

First we’ll start with some encouraging words from the channel Creator Insider on the effective impact our feedback has inspired on the YouTube Creator Studio Beta.

“And just wanted to say thanks again for everybody who’s taken the time to submit it, I know you guys are all busy and you don’t know where it’s going and if it’s gonna, you know, be any use. It totally is useful! It’s totally valuable. It goes straight to our team. And we really value it because this studio beta as you’re probably noticing, we’re making improvements, you know, every month for sure. And those improvements, really are partly a reflection of the feedback we’ve been getting. So the more feedback we get, the more we can improve the product in a way that will be helpful to you. So, keep that coming and in the meantime, keep it real!” - Tom, Creator Insider.
