No. Mine is still plummeting- 883 in September, 874 in October, 863 in November.

There is a theory that views are still happening in the background but the displayed count won’t change until the increase is more than 1% of your present number.
Ah I can understand now so far thanks for highlights this point Mr @tony_b ..good question ma’am @cuicani ..
So it’s like on connect toi when it’s end to counts ( times spend on connect, quantity of messages readed …)
Thanks for the update too Mr @AdamGT and the team as well.. don’t forget my gift

I can understand your feelings @cuicani and yes, it certainly is hard to get used to it!
That’s the general trend @tony_b. Shall we change the nature of the star photo leaderboards - a leaderboard ranked by smallest downward value?

@claude_richard black listed? Never in a million years. Let me investigate and find out what here. Stay tuned.
Hello everyone
The current lay of the land has got me thinking 
I asked myself, what’s the point of producing and posting leaderboards of values that are no different from the values in the previous month? Would it be more valuable and perhaps more interesting to only include those stars that have had an increase in star views over the previous month?

Zuerst einmal vielen Dank @AdamGT für die ganzen interessanten Übersichten.
Zu deinen Gedanken, die Reihen würden sich aber sehr lichten.
Was bleibt dann übrig?

No. That would be equivalent to the Movers & Shakers board, where I already know that I would NOT appear.

Perhaps we could wait a few more months. Chances are that Google might make another change to how views are counted and reported. Just hoping!!

I strongly agree @AdamGT . Perhaps a compromise by saying “… are no different from the values in the previous x months”? Just an instant intuition …
Unlike @tony_b, I am not so optimistic hoping Google’s policy to revert after 21 months … Of course, there always will be some other changes in the way Google is publishing the results of our contributions, we may or may not expect.

Bonjour @claude_richard
I’m happy to let you know that I have finally found the error and am pleased to see that you are not only back on the Average Star Views per day board but you are among the few that has an increased average value which resulted in your star climbing that board. Well done and I sincerely apologise for my error. Thank you for checking the leadeboards and I do think that others should do the same

Haha @Annaelisa
Well maybe a much clearer picture on what is happening to star photos
Because of the Movers & Shakers Readme FAQ# 2 this is not strictly correct @tony_b.

Happy to wait a few months @tony_b. Let’s see the year out with the status quo.

Yes that’s a fair compromise @WilfriedB

It is hard to assess the current situation, but while some of my photos are stuck, there are others where the rate of monthly increase has accelerated. I only monitor the top 10% of my photos, but something seems to be changing. I don’t know exactly what.
Gift @Laurent! Have you been a good boy all year round?
@AdamGT . For last three weeks i am unable to access the leaderboard panel. Hence unable to update data too. It shows 403- Forbidden access. Can you please help resolve this?
