After the explosive post with 11.7k views, I seem to have flown into a shadow ban.
Yesterday's post gained a record 7 views😶🌫️
The first reaction — shock.
So, everything I write is not interesting to anyone?
Maybe it really is 'posts for kids', as one commentator wrote...
Disappointment in myself hit me instantly. I honestly wasn't ready for it.
And then I exhaled.
And I realized — it's just an algorithm. Not a person.
It doesn't think, it just analyzes.
And apparently, they considered my viral post as something unnatural — as if I manipulated it or 'made' it on purpose.
But I know that I didn't manipulate it.
And I can't explain this to the algorithm in any way.
It's unpleasant. It hits deep.
There was a feeling that this was my ceiling. That it wouldn't get higher.
What growth has stopped, and no one will be interested in what I do anymore.
I'm not whining. I'm not complaining. I'm just sharing.
It's also frustrating because I did this not for profit.
I can clearly see that almost no one has real payouts.

Your likes inspired me. Comments. Views.
Understanding that someone resonates with it. Let it not be everyone — but it’s really important to someone.
And what is especially valuable — these comments were written by real people, not acquaintances at my request.
It's bliss.
This is truly.
I would never have thought that for small happiness sometimes a simple 'thank you' is enough.
And you are already soaring. Because your thoughts, your reflections turned out to be important not just to you.
In general, I complained — and that's enough.
Maybe it's really whining. Well, so be it :)
Thank you to those who read my posts.
Thank you to those who liked it.
For you — it's a second of your life.
And for me — much more.
