I also keep track in a database of exactly what I am sending and where I am sending it from and to.
The usual reason for me seeing a drop (or increase) is Google screwing around. I can almost predict it at this point but the drops I see are no where near the drop you have there between the 19th and 17th.
Do you keep your own tracking of what you send at all?
Don't have any real ideas at present other than that something definitely changed, but you already knew that.

Mine is a little bit different, Sarettah. Currently, I send Tumblr traffic directly to Chaturbate (I know, it's not scalable and Tumblr could easily kill my account) but that's how it's setup. Do you think Tumblr ghosted my account? I signed up a new test account and followed one of my affiliate blogs, and all the posts showed up... so I'm actually not sure. As for tracking, I never installed tracking until last week... frankly they were all seedlings anyway and I wasn't concerned since it was early. My main source of growth hacking is via tumblr, getting people to reblog my image with the affiliate link built in... I wonder if that part got messed up? Perhaps there's an issue with AdBlockers shutting down the images...
ALSO... it could be Chaturbate's reporting as well... I wish I could get better feedback.
PS: I'm actually building my own custom API driven site. I think you'll be impresssed @sarettah. I am using Camfoxes as a gold standard.
