YouTube to prioritize original Shorts over clipper accounts

Original: YouTube takes aim at clipper accounts, will prioritize original Shorts But will it hurt creators clipping their own long

YouTube is changing how it ranks Shorts, moving to prioritize original uploads and crack down on accounts that repost clips from other creators' videos. The policy targets so-called clipper accounts that farm views from cut-down content. While the move is aimed at reposters, some creators who clip their own longform videos worry the changes could also reduce their reach and income.

Why now: Creators and viewers are weighing whether the crackdown on clippers will also penalize legitimate creators clipping their own content
