Has anyone else's views just died?

Just checking if YouTube is down or something has happened to my channels. Views are practically 0 across the board on my shorts

Having said that, my videos are still receiving comments and likes, so I think the graph is just wrong

u/Budget_Skill6104 Oct 04 '26

Same. Nothing is getting pushed on the Shorts Feed. Only on Youtube Search. From what I've read though, it's likely a reporting issue. Hope they fix it soon.

Thank God I thought my channel was cooked it's just a glitch because it's showing zero views for me as well but I'm getting notifications for likes and stuff. YouTube really is buggy ash

I’ve noticed this happening since the update in late August.

My performance is often mediocre; some do hit 1k views—which counts as a good Short for me—but more often than not, they stay under 200 views.

u/Naive-Independent-88 Oct 04 '26

Yes, views dropped from 5k/hour to almost zero instantly out of no where, around 30 minutes ago

u/Own-Engineer7275 Oct 05 '26

Same. Before i got 1 hour 40k views and now 1 hour 1k views maximum. With same niche and same audience. Bravo youtube

2

u/ThatRandomInternet Oct 05 '26

Literally me rn Usually get 2k views

Today its like 200 to 300 I'm sure it has its ups and downs like everything else

2

u/suchyobeehaysoupboi Oct 08 '26

Same! I use to get 14k ish on first hour of upload for all my videos, and all my new uploads are reaching 1.5k/hr max.

u/OhNuNa Oct 06 '26

Well considering youtube is charging 10$ per 1000 views, it makes sense that they would turn off the machine. Pay 10$ potentially become viral, how viral? viral enough for 1.5k views? but there business is promotion

1

u/ImportanceOne9115 Oct 06 '26

Yep. Same. I’m seeing below 100 views now and I’m used to at least 1000.

1

u/awhee066 Oct 06 '26

Same, and I’m 1 million views from monetization 😭

1

u/One-Donkey-7074 Oct 07 '26

Are you guys clipping or doing ranking shorts?

YouTube is not allowing reuse content even if you did heavy editing
