I just made a new YouTube channel for having my animations be accessed easier, instead of having to rely on scratch to load it up. And I have a few questions. Mainly about YouTube side of things. Rest assured, I am well over the age limit of 13 on YouTube. What does Scratch doesn't mind me doing with my channel? For example, sharing the link to my YT channel in my about me page, or a video on my projects. Is Scratch ok with this? I am aware they don't like Livestreams or that kind of stuff. Please give me an honest explanation of what I can do and/or cannot do with connecting my YT account with my Scratch account. Thanks.

Livestreams aren't okay. Some other things that aren't okay:

• Putting inappropriate videos on your channel.
  
• Sharing personal information via your channel.
  
• Sharing social media links in the “About” tab of your YouTube channel.
  
• Sharing your email in the “About” tab of your YouTube channel “for business inquiries.”
  

A YouTube channel dedicated to sharing your Scratch projects sounds perfectly fine, as long as you follow the Scratch Community Guidelines with it.

Interesting. There's a particular user who links their YouTube channel, and that channel has links to Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Is there a source for the third bullet point? If so I may report it

I'm pretty sure this isn't allowed, cos we aren't allowed to post d!scord and other socials, so I'd reccomend reporting that user

I asked for a source, not just for you to repeat it

The source is that the person claiming that used to be an ST member, and that it's highly unlikely they changed the rules just after someone left.

Do you mean the user? Or me?

And I don't have any links on there, other than my scratch account. I do have other external accounts, but I don't plan to add them until I leave Scratch in maybe a few years.

It really depends on what content is on the account. FNAF gameplay videos are 100% gonna get you in hot water. Just don't post content that a young Scratcher would not be scared at, make sure you post non-inappropriate content, and just follow the Community Guidelines.

basically , griffpatch's youtube channel is allowed , just no links to other websites (except scratch) and inappropriate content

Ah ok. Make sense. I might think about it more, since those do limit a few things, but nothing big. Appreciate the help everyone!
