If eligible, you can give fans an easy-to-remember web address, called a custom URL, for your YouTube channel. This will look like youtube.com/yourcustomname or youtube.com/c/yourcustomname.

Hi. I would like to fix this one.
As I understand it correctly this link should be handled like https://www.youtube.com/c/DIMENSI0N.
