Hit exactly 10,000 YouTube subscribers and the algorithm just ghosted me
I run a small channel about restoring old power tools from the 80s and 90s. Last Tuesday I finally crossed 10,000 subscribers after grinding for three years. I was pumped thinking the algorithm would give me a boost or something. But instead my views dropped by half and my new videos barely got 200 views for the next week. It's like hitting that milestone flipped a switch that hurt me more than helped. I checked other small creators and a few said the same thing happened to them around that number. Has anyone else noticed a weird slowdown after hitting a subscriber milestone like that?

300 views is the new normal until you break 20k.

So is that just luck of the algorithm or consistent posting doing the work?
