I can't change my YouTube family for 12 months,what should I do ?
YouTube limits the number of family changes you can make. You can only join a new family with the same account 12 months after leaving your first family.
There are solutions to bypass this restriction:
You can use a new Google account to join your YouTube subscription.
Create a new Youtube account using your email address by creating an alias. This will allow you to have just one email inbox.
Most email providers (Gmail, Outlook, Hotmail) support aliases. For example, if your email is [email protected], you can add a “+” to your email like this: [email protected] when creating a new account.
The “+” symbol defines the alias. Emails sent to the address [email protected] will still arrive in your [email protected] inbox.
If you want to keep your playlists, make sure to migrate them before switching accounts.
