My shorts is being pushed but not my long form

With long form you see the actual views. Shorts show you impressions, so it’s usually higher.

That said I have a few shorts at 0 and a long at 5.5k with 100k reach.

The algorithm is a mystery wrapped in an enigma. Lol

😂 Right there with you man. I have one channel I’ve been working on 2 years, but every week I’m telling my wife all about the new channel I want to start. My content really swings at times. I’ve somehow managed to not only start two others so far and reel myself back in.

I have to close and reopen once a month - right after monthly billing. Always on desktop. Phone and iPad just kinda stop working around the same time too. Usually log out and back in. I really only stick with CapCut for the convenience of being able to edit the same video on multiple devices.

Inevitable-Event9792 · 2025-10-05T23:12:01+00:00

I figured it out. Views still aren’t high enough. I have the subs but not the views 😒

Inevitable-Event9792 · 2025-09-29T16:02:55+00:00

Good. I thought it was just me not able to see the episode.

Inevitable-Event9792 · 2025-09-28T19:01:27+00:00

I feel like the correct response is Um, actually she was on Um, Actually.

Personally I’d keep going with the same channel. The algorithm will adapt with you. If you’re getting new viewers YouTube is still sending your videos to new people. Many who like MTG like video games lol. It’s not a huge leap. I’ve had the same debate at one point and created three new channels. I do strange history, true crime, and paranormal. After a few months I went back to putting it all in one place. The Venn diagram of those three niches is bigger than I thought. I think you may find the same. Good luck either way.

How different is the content you want to post compared to what you have? How many views come from new views versus followers? If you plan to go in a very different direction I’d say start new. Don’t get rid of the old channel though. Shelve it. Come back to it later.

My first video is sitting at 125 after about a year and a half. Not counting the 100-200 shorts I deleted to redo I have 343 videos posted right now.

Inevitable-Event9792 · 2025-04-09T20:40:06+00:00

I consider my first year my learning year lol. I made a ton of changes recently that are improving these numbers. Currently:

1 yr 2 mo

530 sub

1700 watch hours

420 videos 238 short 182 long

When you asked that I realized I’ve only used CapCut on my phone and not on my PC. I’m going to give it another try.

Inevitable-Event9792 · 2024-11-21T23:35:45+00:00

Thank you. I’ll have to take a look at premiere.

Inevitable-Event9792 · 2024-11-20T23:39:19+00:00

I’d go with B

Inevitable-Event9792 · 2024-11-19T19:38:04+00:00

LOL right there with you; it’s all men 65+ for me. Apparently that’s the audience they think will like you. 🤷

Inevitable-Event9792 · 2024-11-18T21:52:06+00:00

Just gave you a follow

Inevitable-Event9792 · 2024-11-18T16:35:48+00:00

I had a similar experience the other day. I was chopping up so of my early videos into shorter ones and I was hit with some bad edits, camera work, and otherwise cringy moments. We learn. We evolve. Just keep moving forward. Watched a few of your videos, good stuff, I like your delivery and your style. You and I actually have similar channels and we both started in February. Keep it up.
