I'm pretty good at beginner's method now, what do I learn next? :O

I can solve with beginners method pretty well and am looking to learn better techniques, where do I start?
 
no offence but your not very fast with the beginners method just keep practising the beginners method until you average between 1:30-1:00. But if you are really eager to learn a new method there are four which are the most widely used: Fridrich, Roux, ZZ, Petrus. I would suggest Fridrich because it is the most similar to the beginners method. Fridrich is also the most common so there is lots of material for you to learn from.

Ignore everyone else. If you want to learn "better" techniques, you could start with corner-edge pairing ("F2L"). Otherwise look into other methods and see if something intrigues you.
 
How to clean and lubricate??

I have a mini zhanchi 50mm cube and I disassembled it once to clean.But after that the cube has become slow and tight.How can I increase the speed of the cube???
 
not really related to cubing but has anyone else had trouble with monetizing videos on youtube? I uploaded 2 videos (one 2 days ago and one yesterday) and they're getting lots of views (compared to my other videos) but they still say "under review" :(
one is a megaminx scramble notation with a solve and one is a mirror blocks last layer tutorial/walkthrough. As far as I know, there's nothing copyrighted in those 2 videos and all my other (94) videos were monetized within an hour of me posting the video and monetizing it.
 
My videos get monetized instantly, however you barely get any money from it, and you need to have 70$ per month or more to actually receive the money.

I know you barely make any money from it. I still can't cash out after 2 years. It's just every little bit helps and it's frustrating that my videos aren't getting monetized even after 2 days.


EDIT: nevermind.... videos just got monetized 2 mins ago....

Stickerless Zhanchi Problem

Hello,

I got a stickerless Dayan Zhanchi a few months ago and it is a great cube. However, lately I have had a problem where one side (the red side for me) gets looser with use. Lately I have had to tighten this side everyday just to stop it from popping so much. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there anything I can do to fix it?

Thanks

Sounds like a problem with the core. It might be stripped. Swapping in a new core should fix the problem.

Thanks for the answer and I will probably be ordering a new core from icubemart, but out of curiosity what does it mean that the core is stripped?
