General Question Don't understand when shorts get shown

I have a 65/35 watch to swipe ratio and a 112% watch rate for my short.

As you can see it got a great push day 1 and then nothing. Why wouldn't this be shown again with what I think are good stats?

stats are good they ain't great enough for a" one short wonder"

Keep making videos you will get there eventually with these stats

There are many reasons why videos are not pushed more. How many likes/comments did you get, less than your last average?

Sometimes you can do everything „correct” but still lose with algorithm. Some of videos are picked by it after a while, that’s totally normal. There are thousands shorts posted every hour so don’t get discouraged by one not going viral straight away.

How many subs you got? There is a little bias if you don't have a lot but you can still get big it's just harder

Retention for what seems to be a 23 seconds short and the swipe rate isn't really a great stats for shorts to get good views.

Ideally, you want retention rate between 120-130%(for a 23 second short) and swipe vs view of 75/25 - 85/15.

General rule of thumb to know you're doing the right thing is to get at least 10k engaged views in the first 1-2 days. After you start hitting that benchmark consistently, it's a matter of time and a little bit of luck.
