I Am Very Disappointed, How Can a Viral Story Get ZERO Views

Does Medium know what they are doing?

A few days ago, one of my stories went viral. It started gaining so many views for almost a week. All my story views went from 100 to more than 300 views a day. The story itself used to achieve more than 200 views a day. But yesterday, it got no views, not even a single person read the story.

This is the story that went viral and got no views;

I am not disappointed to get zero views Because many of my other stories have got zero views. But I am disappointed because it was a viral story. A story that got 172 views and 1hr and 29mins of read-time the day before this day.

I know viral stories have some high peaks then it starts getting down and down. But it’s not the way it happens.

I had another viral story that I wrote back in September 2020. This story got so many views when it became viral. And after some weeks, it started getting down and down when its time was completed. But it’s still getting almost 10 views a day. This is the real way how a viral story performs.

I know some viral stories don’t get even a single view as time passes. But it also doesn’t go from 170 views a day to 0 views a day.

If it had 170 views with no read-time then it could have made some sense. But with a read-time of 1hr and 29mins, it doesn’t make any sense.

I am very disappointed with this thing.

This is the story, read it and tell me is there any wrong with this?

And also tell me what do you think about my situation? —Is Medium right for getting down a story that got 172 views with a read-time of one and a half hours?
