Since Summer 2020 my pins are not getting almost any impressions - did anyone solve this?

Hi,
around July 2020 there was a huge discussion across the internet (and here as well), millions of people suddenly stopped getting impressions (0-50 max - this is ZERO in the real world, and it stays at 0-50 even year after),  My account usually was getting 30-300k impressions on each pin regularly, and worst pins had 1500-5000, I had like 3,5-5 Million v monthly views, but since that 2020 incident, I am getting 0-100, yep even 0 is normal now for me 300k monthly views s is my normal. I post mostly my own, original, high-quality content (interior photos + art) On IG I am getting 5-40k likes on these photos, and reels get 50-1m views regularly.

Content is not a problem in my case, and I am absolutely sure something like this is not a "normal ebb and flow" It is 2 years and nothing changed. I tried some idea pins and some got 160-300k impressions so this applies only to my regular pins (linking to my website shop!)  Idea pins are of course useless as they are not clickable. I am sure there is some shadowban / blacklist connected to pins with links to my website. There is just no possibility that such a drop for 2 years would be natural - it is not.  Now, suddenly my stats are up since last weekend, but again only because posts from 2020/2019!! these are still getting traction, and someone probably repined some, but anything posted after Summer 2020 is invisible.  My best pins each month are those from 2019/2020  - this just makes no sense.  Did anyone here have this same problem? There was a huge thread in 2020 but got locked up...

It's all the opposite for me. I get 0 views on Instagram and tiktok. Did you use Tailwind? I got a huge drop in 2020 everywhere too, but I overcome it here on Pinterest - compared to Instagram and tiktok. I get 4m monthly views on Pinterest, which is still pretty bad but at least it's something.

I used tailwind but it was for no use, Pinterest is 100000% shadowbanned me or my website URL,  its impossible for me to get even lousy 1000 impressions on my BEST photos anymore, 50-60 is my number, this is shadowban/blacklist, nothing else. Weird thing is the old posts, before July 2020 are still getting tons of impressions, anything posted after, close to zero.
