I released a video that did quite well today, but the hourly views are going back right to what they were during the big dip.

My 48 hour view count is still down quite a bit too. Normally I'd be at 70k, but it's at 48k now.

Socialblade's view count for yesterday and today is average though. So... no clue?
I am hoping it is a bug. Maybe North American servers are reporting stats properly due to some problems

It's interesting that this is coinciding with YouTube making youtube studio the default analytics view... I'm hoping that's it.

mine is still showing low on real time as well. real time says iv only had 2600 views in the last 48 hours but 28 day says I got nearly 2000 just yesterday.

im sure its just a glitch in the real time. gap keeps growing between what real time on my new video says and what is shown on the watch page and video tab. and what real time shows. normally real time will out pace the watch page. hopefully they fix it soon, its un nerving seeing views so low on the real time page

Same here in the Uk. I lost about two thirds suddenly about the same time you guys report. It’s not recovered yet. I’ve not checked beta to see if if reports the same.

So far, only half of the views seem to have appeared back (the ones from Tuesday), but it's still wonky, and the actual views for yesterday is showing 19,000, when it's supposed to be around 38,000. But my earnings for Tuesday were great and on par with my regular view count... so, no one should worry over this, it's just a reporting issue.

i hate it when they leave us guessing instead of just putting up a card or something in beta to say there's a problem and not to worry. Is it just me or did they not even acknowledge /mention when pretty much the entire Youtube crashed 5-6 weeks back on the weekend? remember?
