I promote my developer courses on Youtube with external links and this doesn't really change anything.
It just means anyone in this position has to join the partnership program, but they can continue to NOT show ads on their channel (I don't like ads, so I don't show them on my channel).
10,000 views is honestly not a lot. If you follow any reasonable Youtube strategy for creating content, you'll reach that in no time. It's a minor inconvenience at best.
It does worry me tho, because in the future they may do other things to deter third party links.
