I've barely sold anything in a week....very low views, no watchers, plain weird. Feels deliberate.

Join the club.  This is not new.  Happening to everybody.

Same here. My 2020 fourth quarter sales were super high and now I've sold a handful of things since October began. This new update is wreaking havoc.

Record 2021 here.  2020 was a pandemic year in which everyone was held in their house with free $1200 government checks and free cash to sit on the couch to get paid more than working (and buy super majority on-line only with the kids at home).  Q4 of 2021 doesn't have that free stuff anymore, but does have near record spikes in inflation and stagflation due to the policies of the current administration.  Given that, the cash is there inside the largest economy in the world with port disruptions.  This was a no brainer to figure out in Q1 of 2021----hope you prepared for super sales.

You mean it's not ebay "deliberately" slowing sales so they can make LESS money?    😉

And of course it has nothing to do with the pandemic bringing seismic change in world commerce. This myth that suddenly everything snaps back to 'the way it was' after a cataclysmic event (which has still not stabilised) is a little naive.  The drop in ecommerce is following a pretty predictable pattern.

Hi, i see you have 30 items listed currently, and checking Completed’s, your sales appear both steady and consistent. I know sellers who would be pleased with such, tho that may be small comfort if your sell-thru has fallen off. But with so few listings, just looking in from the outside, you are doing well compared to many others. By “deliberate,” are you saying you believe you are being throttled?
