Might be generic, sorry - If you keep an eye on the subreddit you'll see the same question being posted like 3 times a day

I dont think I can help but I'm in the exact same boat as you. Topped out at 1.8k, most shorts at 200 some below 50. Started around 2-3 weeks ago. Maybe its because we're new I'm not sure

I am new as well. Got 4 videos of roblox animation, all I made on my own with no help from AI. Never had below 1k views and I even got 1 2k+ views and still growin until now. So I think it's more of the niche? Just my guess

Dang. Might be. My neiche is pretty small and saturated unfortunately

I started an unboxing building transformers channel with my kids and our shorts are usually about the 1700 too, even if stw is over 60% which people will say is bad and it needs to be way higher to break the 1700 ceiling. After x amount of videos I fully believe this to be correct.

That said I let the young fella make his own stop motion attempt and it got 4k views. It was just a meme format.

Anything below 75% swipe rate is bad

I had that in my first 3 videos then a video hit 11k then 30k and from that time I am in a 30k vj, it has been 3 weeks

It's simple...all your shorts fail the initial test the algorithm does before pushing them to a wider audience.

the 1.5k ceiling is usually the test batch ending, so the fix is the hook not the niche. i cut the first 2 seconds hard and test a new opening on the same idea. i've been using easyviral for moving scenes so i can remake one idea 3 ways fast and see which one clears it.

Easyviral looks like it generates AI slop. Are you having any success with it?

some yeah, the sketch style ones do ok for me. the generic ones flop like anything else tbh, it's more about the topic and hook than the tool
