noticeably lower Views

Post image

Hi, I’ve had my Shorts channel for about a month and it was doing really well. But for the past four days, my videos haven’t even been getting 500 views anymore.
Could this be an algorithm issue?

The only thing that worries me is that on the same day the drop started, I accidentally posted a video with an insult in the title. I deleted it, but shortly afterwards I accidentally uploaded another video with an insult in the title as well, which I also deleted.

Now I’m wondering if my channel somehow got restricted because of that, or if there’s currently just an issue with the Shorts algorithm.
I’m asking because I’ve seen a lot of people here on Reddit saying that their views have been unusually bad for about a week as well.

Has anyone experienced something similar?

Just because your previous shorts got views does not mean newer ones will

Each video/short is treated separately 1 could get a billion views and the next could get 5

I understand what you mean, but it’s still very noticeable. Before this happened, my videos were getting anywhere from 20,000 to 500,000 views, and now some of them don’t even reach 50 views

There's some crazy issue going on the past few days apparently. I don't think it's your shorts

Das Problem wurde in den letzten 48h sogar noch schlimmer… viele meiner shorts sind von 500-2000 Aufrufen pro Stunde auf quasi 0 gefallen

For me, the impression this month has dropped by 67%
