People are irrationally mad that Twitch just announced day one monetization through subs and bits. They also unlocked badges and emotes day one too.
Why be mad about that?
I don't much care for the platform due to predatory advertising practices and poor revenue splits. But even with that I am able to admit that this is a good change for them and the creators. It's a solid business move.
I want all platforms to win and Twitch currently operates at a loss. They need to innovate and this is a step in the right direction. Anyone who says otherwise has zero business sense.

Honestly, I've had a similar experience. But once you understand how Rumble works, what you're experiencing makes perfect sense. It all comes down to understanding how people come to see your content.
When it comes to your LIVE videos, the primary driver of views are people that follow your channel. Anything else is just icing on the cake, in the form of discoverability on the home page, which historically was driven by Editor's Picks, but it appears they are transitioning to a algorithm-based feed. So you getting a lot more views on non-short videos, especially LIVES, makes perfect sense. Your subscribers get a push notification when you go live, so that triggers real views from your community.
When it comes to your Shorts, from what I can tell, it is almost exclusively dictated by algorithms. So whether someone follows you actually has very little bearing on whether they see your shorts. So Rumble Shorts are driven by the algorithm showing all Rumble viewers your account, based upon their parameters as to what gets shown to what people.
@chrispavlovski explained their algorithm for discoverability: "Rumble's recommendation algorithm will be better described as an audience algo. If people click and watch, you'll get recommended. Editor Picks will soon be replaced by what the viewer wants, not what anyone picks. If content isn't recommended, the audience didn't like it."
The problem with this is that, by definition, this is skewed towards large creators and works against smaller creators. It's MUCH easier for a well-known creator to get people to click and watch their videos, and much harder for a smaller creator. That's just the reality.
So with Rumble Shorts being run algorithmically, we're going to see it become far more difficult to get organic views of your content... which is going to lead to far more clickbait content from smaller creators and IMO send the results down the same clickbait cesspool of X.
The one recommendation that I have is to get your audience over to Pickax and promote your Rumble Shorts on Pickax... as you know, it's the only social media platform that's not going to penalize you for promoting your Rumble content.
I tested this out by just seeing what my organic views on Shorts were for several weeks (I have almost 9k followers on my Rumble channel). I was getting single and double digit views. I then started posting the shorts to Pickax, and IMMEDIATELY, my view counts went up to the hundreds, sometimes thousands, of views. And it wasn't just raw views, which are easily manipulated, but unique views (real views)... so my theory is that I'd post to Pickax, which allowed my shorts to get some views quickly, the Rumble algorithm sees that the video is getting views right away, and then boosts it to be seen by others.
I've attached a screenshot below of my Shorts with the view counts at the moment I made the switch from just organic views on shorts to using Pickax to promote the Shorts.
I was hoping that Rumble wouldn't go down the algorithm route, but it was predictable because of the complaints of lack of discoverability. The problem they're going to face is that you're going to see less and less community, and more and more clickbait content trying to game the system... it's inevitable, and happens on every single platform that goes down this route.
The important thing is to understand what is going on, why it's happening, and what you can do to fix it.
Hope this helps!

I’ve been posting Rumble Shorts since they launched. The first month, I had one video get thousands of views. Great. The second month, I had another hit a few thousand views as well.
But lately, I’ve noticed something strange: my LIVE videos consistently perform better than my short-form content, which honestly doesn’t make much sense to me.
I’ll have a LIVE break 100+ views, while a Short struggles to hit even 8–24 views, despite that same Short getting 1K+ views on IG/YT.
Now granted, I understand this isn’t an apples-to-apples comparison. Subscriber counts obviously play a role. But I see no reason a Short should only get 8 views when LIVEs consistently break 100+.
Shoot, I just checked and found one Short with 2 views. I genuinely don’t even know how that’s possible lol. I’m not claiming to be a master content creator, but even a bad video should probably exceed 2 views.
Something seems off with the visibility/discovery of Rumble Shorts.
Just to be clear, this isn’t me crying about views. I’m totally at peace with low view counts if the content simply isn’t good enough. This is honestly just feedback because it feels like the Shorts algorithm may need some tweaking.
It doesn’t make much sense to me that a LIVE stream would consistently outperform Shorts in discoverability.
Rumble gang, how are your Shorts performing?
