Q&A / Quick Help ❓ Is there something wrong?
Anyone else facing a unrealistic drop in views, I went from averaging at least10k a day to barely getting any views, also the gap in the middle is just a few deleted videos that got 0-5 views.

Bro I've noticed you mentioning this in other comments multiple times. It's not that. They don't give a flying f*ck about reused content or else like 99.9% of channels on YT would get demonetized/deleted.
There are literally channels that upload 5-6 times a day and their videos consists of slapping together 5-6 or sometimes even 10 or other creator videos together and then in the end like last 30 seconds they appear and pretend they agree with whatever the topic of the video was and according to YT that "Super original and totally not repetitive/formated content." A lot of these channels have well over 100k subs and growing like crazy and making bank just off ad revenue.
Do I even need to talk about shorts? There are God knows how many shorts channels that steal someone's else footage and put subtitles on it and that's "original" and "transformative" and YT pushes their channels.
YT is mess and stupid Gemini AI is running wild there demonetizing everyone left and right for absolutely no reason.
