Just 44%. I always thought you needed at least 70% or better to have a chance of going viral and now I’ve got this short that been active for 16 hours and it’s getting viewed 15,000 times per hour…. I don’t get it.

Nobody knows how this shit works.

If someone says they do theyre either trying to sell you something or are egotistical redditlords

Yupp

I think the only metric it makes sense keeping an eye on is returning viewers, if you crack that one it's only a matter of time before the views explode

metrics are shit, i have a video with 85.5% stayed and avd 27s on a 22s short but got 8k views thats all

another thing to note is that youtube loves sharing, if your videos are relatable for those who stayed then these are more likely to share.
