TikTok has entirely stopped working since the ownership switch. How did you make it work?

I am a content creator and have been for years outside of TikTok. Joining the platform several years ago was the greatest decision I ever made as it directly influenced my income and was able to push several customers to my Etsy storefront and I was able to make tens of thousands of impressions. Ever since the ownership change on January 22nd, the app has entirely ceased to do this for everything I make. With almost 40,000 followers, I get only a few hundred views per video. Each video upload takes upwards of 10-20 minutes (and this time has been INCREASING since January). My videos won't show up at all to many of my followers, and my FYP page has almost entirely broken. The only videos I see anymore with actual traction are videos that encourage negative interactions from emotions, such as news, discourse, ragebait, or otherwise.

My Etsy store has basically fallen off the map because of this and I no longer have any income from the platform, nor even an "audience" since they cannot see my stuff to begin with. How have other content creators adapted to this new horrible algorithm? What am I doing wrong?
