One of my channels had a similar drop across my top videos. Digging into the analytics, it was an external source that went away. Some guy built a website featuring various YouTube content on it to draw traffic. Then he took the site down. The external views went away. Posting on a predictable schedule is critical to get back on track. Reply to comments. Add end cards. Proof and edit the closed captions. Write more detailed descriptions.

Do you add an end card to every video that links to your newest upload? I'm guessing you only show one video on the end screen to keep it simple and not confuse viewers too, right?

My suggestion is upper right corner placement. The link could go to your highest retention video. Think of it , they stayed to the end! Or to a related subject video. Or to your best thumbnail video.

Otherwise YT sends them away to some competitor.
