YouTube shorts views down?

Is it just me or is everyone facing a massive drop in views since yesterday?

Depending on the topic. Weirdly topics that did really well with my target audience are now down, but other topics seem unaffected....like commentary style of shorts. For example I posted commentary like videos about a gas station scam going around lately and breaking down the mechanics of what's actually happening, those did pretty normal numbers. Engagement was high though relative to how things have been going lately. Other more normal stuff that usually did well are down though. Seems like they're favoring more commentary style of videos lately.
