As someone who makes videos I can give an example of how poor Xs view count is.

On the same video: YouTube - 3k views 143 likes Tiktok - 249 views 21 likes and 6 saves Twitter/X - 26 impressions - 4 views

Fr I it's almost not worth posting there

I'm all for Twitter bashing but there are factors like follower count differences than can account for what you experienced.

I strangely enough have less followers on tiktok than I do twitter. However my point being the impressions given to each video is much much smaller on twitter/X
