yup got hit by this too, been trying to post jobs for a week now but nothing's showing up, anyone think it's a bug or an intentional change by upwork to make it harder for new freelancers to get jobs?

yeah same here been getting 0 impressions for the past week or so, I've tried varying my job titles and descriptions but nothing seems to be working. Has anyone else noticed a mass drop in UpWork's ad quality? I've been seeing a lot more scams and low-ball offers than usual

yeah same here, i've been active on upwork for a while now and i'm seeing like 90% of my profile hidden from clients, even with a decent portfolio and decent ratings. seems like their algorithm is really favoring freelancers who are willing to offer crazy low rates. anyone think it's just a seasonal thing?

yeah same here, my proposal views and impressions have tanked over the past week, definitely seems like something's off with their algo. I've tried tweaking my profile and bids but nothing's working. anyone find a workaround or is it just a waiting game at this point?

Yeah, my profile is basically a ghost town right now. Feels like they tweaked the algo with zero warning and broke visibility for everyone. Just gotta wait it out until they fix the mess.

Same here, my connects are burning but impressions are totally flatlining. Feels like I got shadowbanned after the last update. Hope they fix this mess soon.

Yeah, it's totally dead for me too, haven't seen a single view in days. They definitely tweaked the algo again without any notice. Feels like they shadowbanned half the platform or something.
