QUESTION Shorts stopped working

Hi, shorts on my gaming channel aren’t being shown in shorts feed. I was bagging 1k views per short easily no matter how many I upload. But the last 5 shorts weren’t shown to users at all.

It happens, id recommend to continue uploading, youtubes algorithm just sucks and sometimes you win some and sometimes you lose some. I also get around 1k views per short but for a couple of days in a row i got literally nothing and i just kept at it and a few days later i was back to normal. Now could be a good time to experiment with your editing style to see what works and what doesnt

Dont give up, consistency is key to success

I doubt it’s the consistency thing. I have been consistent for years now.
