I do think “shadowbanning” is real, more so to the extent of they won’t push your content for a bit while you’re under heavier moderation. I’ve had it a few times where after a strike or two, even if the strike is over turned my videos won’t go public for hours or days in some cases. I’ve even had older loop videos flop with 200% watch time, 150% engagement and they wouldn’t break 150 views, after a strike that was overturned

Unfortunately Jack was Defo shadowbanned on TikTok and on KZread too. Look at the views of this video. It really seems like KZread does not like content pertaining to TikTok at all as a platform especially comparing it to KZread. This is the third channel I’ve noticed that’s been shadowbanned. Others are Tuv, and Moon, I can’t drop links because this comment will be deleted for spam. Both vids tho, were both talking negatively about TikTok, and were highly edited and optimized for watch time. Thumbnails were on point to and catered to the niche of each channel. No reason they should not have gone viral with Tuv having 1m+ and moon (at the time) having 200k

As a masked cosplayer, I 100% agree to this. There some pretty weird reasons why this happens (like spam liking /srs).

You did all this in such a short time mate, it's insane. I remember when you had under 2k subs but your vids were very professional and high quality from the get go. With the dedication you have you more than deserve this growth, I wish you the best in the future!

This is all very achievable on TikTok, just not going to happen in a week. You don't need trends.

this is super valuable for people trying to make a career making content. Tiktok can be very discouraging due to the power trends have on what gets pushed out. The secret is to take these trends and twist them into original content, or simply ride the wave

Dude i love your videos and you are slowly gaining more subscribers you tell a good story every time. As a KZreadr, i am always inspired.

I constantly think about that short you posted about how only a few people knew Tic Toc-ers, but KZread with long-form videos created a greater personal connection with people so more people knew KZreadrs. It's interesting that so many people use Tic Toc but it won't matter. As long as people keep dancing and lipsyncing and not having any personal connection, people will always have a hard time naming Tic Toc-ers.

I love the energy and effort he puts into all of his videos, quality stuff!! Great job Jack!

Absolutely lovedthis new format! I was so engaged the entire time and you even snuck in 2 storylines! Wow!

Ive watched about two of your videos so far and I really think you provided some cool information about the algorithm all while keeping my eyes glued to the screen. Thanks for inspiring me man. Much love ❤️

I think the element you added of the reality of the journey of the video really adds to it. Really good mate.

Even gaining new followers in a week is a high achievement for me. That's a lot of effort there, hope you got some rest after making those tiktoks

You consistently have great content with fun topics and amazing editing keep up the great work man.

You stories are too captivating. This is definitely gonna blow up

Love this video. It must be so hard to create content for a TikTok experiment whilst ALSO making videos about it for KZread. Kudos for all the effort! I just followed your TikTok account to see what you get up to on there in the future!

The video reminded me a lot of Ryan Traham metaverse video! You both have really fire content

To be honest, the effort deserves a thumbs up. Most people would have stopped making the video if they noticed it wont work.

I barley ever comment on videos but I'm definitely going to start commenting on yours because you seriously don't get enough recognition. Love your videos, keep going!

You are great Jack, you’re videos are so well done I wanna cry. Seriously 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻good job

Bro you made me famous in both insta and KZread by learning your algorithm datas💯 Thank you so much teacher✔️

Thanks for revealing how wonky the algorithm is and how bizarre TikTok’s preference for content creators is

Never seen this kid before, genuinely good content. This kid got it all, editing, animations, pacing, humor, charismatic, its just a matter of time before he blows up.

This is how i discovered your channel, these tiktok videos!

Great stuff as always man, one of the best storytellers period. Keep it going. Just glad to be here before 1 million.

Jack you’re a legend, loving these experiments

I think that new accounts tend to pop off more than established accounts on TikTok because the algorithm needs to test them with a wide variety of audiences to see where they fit. In contrast, TikTok serves content from established creators to their established fanbases, and if the content is different, it won't get the same reaction (i.e People that followed for tech content don't want to see interviews). On KZread, ParkerGames was struggling to grow his own channel because his established fans didn't watch him anymore. When he created the channel Craftee, he started uploading really high quality videos from the get-go, and it popped off

Your video quality is one of the best that we’ve ever seen 💯

Amazing video, your rhythm and editing is hypnotic. While you may not have cracked the Tiktok algorithm this run, you've cracked the human mind... Good job!

One of the best ways to gauge if your tiktok has long or high market success is to identify a related metric for content strength, and relevancy and its engagement rate. It is easily appraised using tools such as *phlanx's tiktok engagement rate calculator* or you can do it manually

amazing work on the video and congrats on 300k!! You're growing so quickly and I wish you the best of luck!

That was such a compelling story to watch! Great job 😊

The editing and scripting/story is on point as usual. Awesome stuff jack keep it up and you'll hit 1m subs in no time :)

Jack i appreciate your hard work and dedication you put into this experiment, you have earnt a sub from me. Although i've seen other comments saying that KZread does not like to promote videos which speak positively of tiktok. for this reason maybe change your title to something which the KZread agrees with, for example "Why Does the Tiktok Algorithm Punish Hard Work?"

You give me so much second coming of captain disillusion vibes I love it

I like how you took some style from Ryan Trahan videos and mixed it with your style. Very entertaining.

dude your content is so entertaing and your editing is crazy you should make a tutorial on how you edit!

"The algorithm is the audience." Frightfully insightful ngl

Bruh you deserve a million subscribers. Love your videos man! Above and beyond!

I suppose if you work this hard for the next 7 weeks you'll be at 1Million

This video and all your content really is brilliant Keep up the great work Jack

Absolutely love your work Jack! Keep it up!!

Criminally underrated video, really good!

OMG my video about the cat shows up at: 4:31 haha I've been a huge fan and this makes me happy haha keep up the amazing work! Always golden content

Till the 8.5 minutes mark, it felt like a 5 minutes video 🔥🔥 really nicely donr

YT is quite simple for, I hop on YT I see a James Jani video I click, I see a Jack Gordon video I put away all my distractions and watch till the end twice.

Okay listen, you are the most underrated KZreadr ever. Never stop what you‘re doing because the people who watch you, really enjoy your content!

This is top tier content my guy. You are underrated as hell haha

i remember couple years back you had 30k subs on yt now ur on almost 500k and its still not enough. your video quality is still just wayyyy too good to be only seen by this amount of people

This man is like the modern day V-Sauce, keep up the content!!

You are my favourite youtuber right now...man how do you edit?its dope.

YES HE HIT 300K! cg jack!

From what I know, TikTok suppresses your views if you upload too many times within a window because it seems like spam. Although, my videos take a ton of time to make so I haven't had that issue.

this is hands down the most underrated yt channel out there

You're a beast at social media

This man always makes the best videos ever

You should do more of commentating video. For example, your best video has to do with you talking about another person. Not your shorts, but your video. And it was about the mr beast commentator. That was super interesting and something that no one would even think about. You should do more videos like that. Talking about other people, either good or bad, either way, you’d get the views merely by your editing. You should do a video on other KZreadrs or anyone.

Thought I was watching a whole movie...Incredible work, Jack!

It makes no sense why this is only sitting on 25k views. Huge quality.

Really quality video, I hope to see more long-form videos from you

TikTok is a lottery, I use it as a tool to grow channels and then never touch it again, otherwise I get frustrated with how inconsistent the platform is

"Dont forget to ring my like button, and subscribe to my bell!" 😂

Honestly tiktok feels like it’s dieing already. People tend to spend less time on the app, because quality content just won’t get shown anymore. And well when people spend less time on an app, creators will soon follow. Just a thesis but this seems likely. Average session times and app openings seem to have been decreasing too. Epic video tho! cheers, Gabriel
