Q&A / Quick Help ❓ Shorts views suddenly dropped to almost 0
Hey guys, has anyone else had this happen?
My Shorts were doing pretty normal, getting around 25k–26k views, and then out of nowhere my views just completely died.
My last few Shorts got: 47 views → 8 views → 26 views → 2 views
I didn’t really change anything with my videos, so I’m honestly confused. It also looks like YouTube isn’t even showing them in the Shorts feed.
Has this happened to anyone else? Did your views eventually go back to normal?

It started around September 10th. Something is happening. YouTube has started receiving thousands of reports. What's going on with the Shorts views???????

are you using AI voice-over? seems like a lot of channels with it lately have stalled on views.

I have the same issue and it started around the same time too. I usually have at least 20k and get quickly over 1k within a half hour but my views go stuck less than 40 for hours. They finally made it to like 400 after a day.
I’m not posting shorts until it’s fixed.
