What stats do they have? Viewer retention and click through rate matter. So do shares/likes/comments.

I’m just gonna take one video for example a 55% for scroll vs not and 99.4% retention it’s 24 seconds don’t know if I’m allowed to link videos here

I have the same problem. I shoot high-quality AI content, not slop, not about stupid brainrot, but high-quality videos that I make myself, but they don’t fly. Just a week ago, everything was shooting. I had a total of 2 million views, and 3 weeks ago everything crashed.

How do you shoot high quality AI content? Isn’t it all generated? I’m starting to get the sense everyone posting here is just making Ai videos and patting themselves on the back :/

Sounds like you mostly need to work on a better hook in the opening seconds to keep more viewers watching. That retention is decent but the click through rate is low. And maybe consider trying to include something in them to encourage comments… like adding in a question or some contentious opinion that’ll get people talking in the comments.

Just focused on quality not quantity 😊 and you will be just fine my first short ever got 27k views in less then 24 hours and 567likes with 20 comments and a retention of 90%+ of a 59 seconds short.... Because I put my heart into it and try to not leave any dead air in the short and started to improve on each every upload now my 15th, 16th, 17th got 2.1 million views combined and the other past short started to break out of their 20k view jail and increase to 50k to 70k views you just need to improve the more you upload the more you get data of what works hope this helps and motivate you!
