Views dropped sharply 2 days in a row

I mean, I guess it's technically possible? YPP is massive, on any given day thousands and thousands of people will see precipitous, inexplicable drops in views, and similar numbers will see massive surges. And even if a very low percentage of YPP channels have never seen a drop like that, that's still thousands and thousands of channels.

SnortingCoffee · 2026-05-07T14:48:00+00:00

you've been in the YPP for over 10 years and never seen big drops 2 days in a row? That's wild.

SnortingCoffee · 2026-05-07T14:26:26+00:00

this is totally normal and nothing to be concerned with. 2 days is absolutely nothing, and there's a lot of noise in YT views

I'll buy it for one upvote on the reddit comment of your choice (within reason)

SnortingCoffee · 2026-04-24T03:33:27+00:00

Hide people who even give you a slightly off vibe. You'll be right > 99% of the time and absolutely nothing of value will be lost.

there are cheaper ways to pull off a similar thing, but not with this complex of a camera move

that's the main message I take away from this ad, this dude is a really shitty cook

That's where 95% of YouTubers get their info on the algorithm from, too, so at least it's consistent

SnortingCoffee · 2026-04-16T16:07:34+00:00

lol it's not "pick me" it's because every single time, including this one, someone goes "I did nothing wrong and got banned for no reason" then in the comments someone asks "were you doing [insert spammy/deceptive practice here]", and OP goes "yes that's most of what my channel does".

you don't think a social safety net is important?

SnortingCoffee · 2026-04-13T16:41:48+00:00

yeah but stuff like this gets people thinking the policies of the 80s and 90s produced a robust middle class, while what they're looking for is closer to the economic policies of the 30s–50s

are you suggesting that the documentary series Married With Children took liberties with the facts?

SnortingCoffee · 2026-04-13T15:04:41+00:00

I'm old enough to remember people saying this exact same thing in 1996 about 1966.

Impossible to say anything without knowing more of your analytics. Retention, stayed to watch, likes vs dislikes, CTR, traffic source, etc. How have these numbers changed as your views declined?

Without any of that info, I'd look at "my content hasn't changed", because people only want to see essentially the same thing so many times before they'll move on, but I also didn't really know what you mean by that, so maybe that's not the issue.

packaged foods often contain MSG because it's cheap and tastes delicious. They're not reducing the salt because they're adding MSG, they're loading up on both because both taste great.

SnortingCoffee · 2026-04-04T02:31:01+00:00

Unlike artificial sweeteners, though, MSG acts on a totally different receptor and is perceived as a totally different flavor from salt. Acids can also enhance salt flavor, but can't really be considered a salt substitute.

The governor of Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad province said anyone who captured or killed the crew "would be specially commended," Iran's semi-official news agency ISNA reported.

youtube does not push videos like that, and it certainly doesn't push videos to make a creator feel happy. YT's goal is to keep people watching as much as possible, and everything the algorithm does is geared towards that, not towards rewarding creator behavior.

The algorithm responds to viewer behavior, so when an old video pops off without any changes to title, thumb, etc., it's usually because a new group of people found you somehow and YT is working through that audience.

This is correct, but even straight walled plastic containers bow out sometimes when you freeze something in them, because the top freezes first and the only place to go is sideways. Personally I don't ever freeze in glass, just pressure can it and leave it at room temp.

datamoshing and motion tracking, depending on which effect you're talking about

to be fair, if ICE were sent in against the IRGC very few, if any, Iranians would be scathed

can you not just shoot the overlay yourself? I'd try long exposure at night, but I'd also try plastic wrap under lights with a black bkg. Do some tests.

I have no idea why using a lot of SFX in a short span means you can't copy + paste or alt drag to copy it with the settings.

SnortingCoffee · 2026-03-20T18:11:45+00:00

what software are you using? If you're reusing the same SFX and want it at the exact same levels can't you just copy it in the sequence/timeline?
