This is horrble. Lots of videos will be lost forever.

maybe can we try quickly hitting requests to each videos' page without actually getting the video file so that they get marked as active?

Make a site that views a random low-view video each refresh

follow up question, when did you receive the email?

[–]Abc123Abc123102030[S] 4 points5 points  (1 child)

3 days ago. After some research, I found out that their inactive content policy started in September.

One of the youtuber I watch actually said about this. He uploads his videos in dailymotion to as a backup

[–]MjLovenJolly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is really weird. Storage costs are lower than ever before, but they still decide to delete videos? The onus is on Dailymotion for failing to show these videos to people. Unless it’s private, they’re free to use algorithms to show it to potentially interested viewers.
