New Algorithm on Chaturbate

[hidden_evelina]

Last week I wrote support asking about what happened on the site since the beginning of March 2025, but there's still no reply from them. But someone just told me that they inquired about it and they (CB support) told her that they changed what a 'viewer' is. Example: a user has 7 tabs open. They only count the 'engaged' tab now as a viewer in the rooms. The other 6 do not count.

Me:
Time slot: Around midnight EST
Number of followers: 800.000
Number of viewers at peak before: 1.000
Number of viewers at peak now: 500
Average rank for females before: 30
Average rank for females now: 60

My viewer count fluctuates a lot since they changed the algo and overall I noticed an instant 50% drop in the number of viewers in comparison to the number I had in the past couple of years and a sudden 50% drop in earnings because of that.

Now the placement on CB pages depends on the very luck. One day you can be ranked #5 and on another #150.

I wish everyone good luck. Work hard and don't give up.

I'm like 95% sure I've seen that discussed like 4-5 years ago.

Just entered my password protected room with two gray names in one window in two tabs. User count is 3, as it should be. So...

They mean viewers that count towards position. So the colored name sitting in 6 different rooms only count towards the position of the models tab that's active but I think that's an old change.

Sounds like something they would have done in response to room raids. Artificially boosting models with 50 of the same people in each of their rooms.

Still we all know active tipping is the heaviest weight on rank.
