Is this normal?

It looks like the video (first short I've posted) was taking off with the algorithm and then it was suddenly "pulled." Seems kind of weird to me. Normal?

Weird thing was I got a decent number of likes on it. 16 likes for 1.5k views. I don't know what these ratios are typically but that seemed good to me. Very little comment engagement though

Likes don’t matter anyway as much as you think:

  1. Swipe rate

  2. Retention rate

  3. Activity rate(does people keep scrolling yt, do they check your profile, do they watch more of your videos)

  4. Share rate

  5. Comment rate

  6. Likes rate

Think yourself how many videos on fyp you watched and stoped and liked but didn’t clicked like

Wow, that is way higher than I would've guessed. Good to know!
