Hey everyone, it’s Leaflit! Today I’m reacting to Hero Hei’s video “The YouTube VTuber purge has begun,” focusing on how YouTube's new content policy led to the removal of a beloved VTuber clipper, flippinFilian, even though she had full permission from the VTuber herself.

I call out YouTube for abusing its reused-content guidelines—declaring any clip as "promotional" and banning creators regardless of permissions. flippinFilian added value by archiving entertaining moments and bringing fans together. This policy not only undermines creators like her but also damages VTuber communities at large. Join me as I defend flippinFilian, challenge YouTube’s hypocrisy, and push for real reform in how they handle clip content.

flippinFilian was removed from YouTube under the “reused content” policy—despite explicit permission from the VTuber herself.

Hero Hei brands this move as a “VTuber purge”, where even helpful, community-driven archivers are penalized .

Reddit users and clippers report that YouTube treats all clips as unoriginal, even when transformative—only benefiting the platform’s ad revenue, not creators .

Community Impact – clippers like flippinFilian are vital to spreading VTuber culture, especially internationally.

Policy Critique – YouTube is enforcing copy-paste rules over actual value and permission, hurting creators not infringing.

Call for Reform – We're pushing for YouTube to recognize transformative clipping and creator-approved content.

Fan Engagement – Viewers want accountability—not algorithmic enforcement that silences beloved creators.
