This is the best summary I could come up with:
Rooster Teeth has moved some of its popular content, including most Red vs. Blue seasons, off the YouTube platform entirely and onto its own website.
Rooster Teeth senior writer and showrunner for RWBY Kerry Shawcross posted a video on Thursday announcing the change, explaining that “YouTube revenue is just not cutting it for us right now.”
Shawcross said Rooster Teeth also moved Camp Camp to the site, where episodes will continue to be ad-supported and free to watch.
He added Rooster Teeth gets “approximately 5 – 10 times more value” from ads it runs on its own website, adding that “animation’s hard and it’s expensive.”
He didn’t say specifically what was moved or when, but multiple threads on Reddit from the second half of September say that most of the Red vs. Blue series appeared to have disappeared from YouTube.

What?
Yeah the headline reads like a schizophrenic wrote it.
I understand they are english words but this makes no sense to me.
We need you to go to the store and get two quarts of elbow grease… and, uh, pick up some… headlight fluid for the Puma too.
They only had this flag…
… So they’re going back to what they started with. Good for them.
Well you don’t have to spend three hours downloading a 240p .mov file, so its a little different.
Bring back Rage Quit. It read the only RT show I enjoyed
They did a rage quit compilation thing for the recent 20 year anniversary.
So, rather than having some revenue coming in from YouTube, they’d rather force everyone to use their own website? Do they not understand that not everyone watches YouTube on a computer? Some exclusively use the YouTube app on their phones, TVs, or game consoles.
I dunno. It’s not as if it costs them anything to host the videos on YouTube. Seems odd to completely cut off a revenue source like that.
They have apps for phone, TV, and game consoles, though.
And, as far as I’ve always known, those apps are awful. I haven’t checked in awhile though.
YouTube ain’t much better, even if you pay for it.
They should post one last video to YouTube that is just Church saying “hhhhhhhnnnnnng… bleh”
