YouTube is expanding its Community feature, now allowing your subscribers to post their own text and photos alongside your posts. This means your audience can start discussions, share their thoughts, and engage with each other in a more interactive way, turning your Community tab into a true hub for conversation rather than just a place for you to post.

This update gives you new ways to connect with your fans. Instead of just posting updates and getting replies, your audience can now actively participate, making your Community tab more dynamic. More discussions, deeper connections, and fan-generated content can help strengthen the relationship between you and your subscribers.

A more engaged Community tab also means your audience has a reason to keep coming back, even when you’re not posting new videos. It’s a great opportunity to keep engagement high, gather feedback, and encourage discussions that build a stronger fan base.

Communities is now available globally for all channels with 'Posts' enabled. You'll have the option to opt-in via mobile. On mobile, go to your channel page in the YouTube mobile app and tap Create (the pencil icon), from there follow the directions to complete set-up.

If you have any questions on this feature or anything YouTube related, feel free to contact us.
