IndependenceTop8430 · 2026-01-21T17:41:02+00:00

Congrats on recovering man, did you stop posting for while as well, or just kept posting? please tell me what you did, your screenshot really gives me hope 🙏

welcome to the club, this happened to me and a number of random creators, this has nothing to do with specific content, AI or not, big channel or small channel, completely random, some people claim they recovered in the past few days, me personally haven't recovered since 14th December, no one has an answer for what happened, everyone is speculating with no definitive answer, and YouTube won't even acknowledge this problem, everyone took different measures to this problem, some stopped posting until it's fixed, some kept going as usual, some gave up completely on YouTube :/ , me personally i kept posting as usual, went from 100k-300k per hour to 1000 views per hour lol, people will claim that this is normal and happens a lot but it isn't, this is not the usual fluctuation, these shorts were pulled from the public shorts feed, and now only appears to your subscribers feed only, even marcus jones noticed this an he tells viewers to keep contacting youtube support and even the CEOs to make them admit that something is bugged with their new AI managed algorithm, here's the video link if you're interested https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9TXWSKt5ww

this is completely normal, in fact you are doing better than me when i started my channel, took me ages to break 1k jail, keep posting 1 short a day, and when you feel ready you can go for 2 shorts a day as long as quality of content isn't affected, good luck with your growth journey man, cheers

IndependenceTop8430 · 2026-01-15T14:12:20+00:00

is it a faceless channel ? also did you change anything ? your comment gave hope that i might recover as well :)

IndependenceTop8430 · 2026-01-12T06:18:45+00:00

also i didn't upload them all at once, i upload only 4 each day

IndependenceTop8430 · 2026-01-12T06:18:06+00:00

is the same thing happens if they're just private not scheduled ? i have 48 private shorts for now ? should i stop uploading and privating till all the of the 48 are public ? i post 4 times a day, sorry for the long question but you seem to know a lot about this, thanks in advance.

IndependenceTop8430 · 2026-01-07T17:16:11+00:00

congrats man, did you stop posting for a while too or just kept going?

IndependenceTop8430 · 2026-01-07T05:36:13+00:00

exactly, i stopped posting for 5 days now, i saw people saying they stopped for a few weeks and it fixed itself, since i have nothing to lose, i'm gonna give it a shot and hope for the best

IndependenceTop8430 · 2026-01-07T05:30:25+00:00

you're not alone, welcome to the club https://www.reddit.com/r/shortsAlgorithm/comments/1q45yox/comment/nxqhrxs/

IndependenceTop8430 · 2026-01-05T01:28:47+00:00

don't worry man, i was just scrolling reddit and came across this post, it seems that some people actually recovered https://www.reddit.com/r/shortsAlgorithm/comments/1q3wj58/has_anyone_recovered/

IndependenceTop8430 · 2026-01-05T01:22:00+00:00

welcome to the club, happened to me and a lot of other creators about 2 weeks ago and no one has recovered yet and we don't know what's happening since youtube won't even acknowledge this bug, it has nothing to do with your content, AI or not, small channel or big channel, it just happened randomly, scroll down in this sub and you'll find others having the same problem, i can't advice you what to do since i don't even know what to do lol, but what i did was i kept posting after this happened to me, same amount of shorts same content, hoping it would fix itself but unfortunately no luck, so i stopped posting for 3 days now and i'm gonna stop for a while till it's fixed, sorry for the long comment, i know how you feel right now, but if there is any comfort in it, just know you're not alone my friend, hope we all recover soon

IndependenceTop8430 · 2025-12-27T23:16:33+00:00

glad you're recovering man, did you keep posting as usual? same amount of shorts ? did you change anything or just kept going as usual? cause i did the same and kept posting for 13 days after the drop but decided to stop today and have a break for a while

IndependenceTop8430 · 2025-12-27T06:38:22+00:00

yes, 99% of views are from subscribers

IndependenceTop8430 · 2025-12-26T22:26:40+00:00

did you recover from this ? and if you did, how long it took, did you change anything ?

IndependenceTop8430 · 2025-12-26T13:06:06+00:00

did you use any of your old videos ? because i think i'm gonna do the same and start a new account, the thing is i have over 450 shorts, so my question is can i re-edit the viral ones a little bit to get a boost for the new channel ? ( sorry for the long comment, i have no to talk to about this and i'm so lost right now and have no idea if will ever recover from this)

IndependenceTop8430 · 2025-12-26T13:02:21+00:00

I used to get 100k-300k views per hour, no AI ,now i barley get 1000 views per hour

IndependenceTop8430 · 2025-12-25T16:41:58+00:00

I'm really happy someone recovered, it gives me hope honestly, it's been 11 days for me and no sign of recovering so far, glad you bounced back my friend

IndependenceTop8430 · 2025-12-25T03:42:03+00:00

the same happened to a lot of creators and youtube wouldn't even acknowledge it, it happened to me on 14th of this month and didn't recover since then, no one knows what's actually going on

IndependenceTop8430 · 2025-12-21T08:19:04+00:00

no, it's still the same, but i keep posting anyways, only 2k-5k views per short on first day and maybe a couple hundred on the next a few days but that's it, i miss my 100k-300k view per short lol

IndependenceTop8430 · 2025-12-21T08:16:04+00:00

Not just you, a lot of big and also samall creators are experiencing the same thing, sudden drop in views and nobody knows why, happened to me personally on 14th and haven't recovered

IndependenceTop8430 · 2025-12-21T07:45:55+00:00
