  Help with TikTok Throttling

  Posted by taooatmilk on December 23, 2025 at 3:16 am

  

  Hey ya’ll. About two weeks ago I decided to start a TikTok account. I posted once a day for around a week ish.

  My first few videos did between 5-20k, then somewhere around a week in I had. a video hit 4.4M with something like 700k like – sick. the following day I posted another and it did 3.5M. Next one was 40k or so.

  Here is where it gets interesting.. Following the 40k one I made a video that was basically my foot sticking out the bottom of a tea bag into a hot cup of water, sounds stupid I know, but it was pretty funny.

  That video got flagged and removed by the auto moderation for sexual misconduct. I quickly appealed and the video was reinstated within 20 minutes.

  Here I was thinking I’d been saved by a manual review, but it seems that even though I won the appeal, the strike still destroyed my account.

  I posted the next day in the morning and the video didn’t even hit the fyp. I privated in several hours later and posted another in the evening. When I woke up that video was also 0 views – so i privated it.

  I know this is a controversial practice (privating videos) but what’s done is done.

  Anyway I took a couple days off to let everything reset in my favour, and just dropped a strong video today but what do you know? same thing.

  Mind you, during all this each one of

  my previous videos have still been racking up views, likes, follows etc. I’m sitting around 1.5M likes, nearly 8 million views, 3,700 followers and am 2 weeks in, but now it looks like my reach with new content is literally zero.

  Has anyone experienced anything like this and is there any action I can take to remedy this, or is my account totally cooked.

  And all cause of sensitive and mistaken AI censorship.
