One comment about my phone screen tripled my views overnight

I run a small DIY channel, about 40k subs. For months I used big bold text with crazy arrows. Views were flat around 2k per video. Then last Tuesday someone commented that my thumbnail was unreadable on a phone. I checked on my own phone and yeah, the text took up half the screen and the object was tiny. So I shrank the text to like 20% of the frame and zoomed in on the actual tool. Next video hit 18k views. That one comment did more than any course. Has anyone else had a single viewer note that changed their whole approach?

Take that one video with a grain of salt, could just be the algorithm finally waking up. One comment is still just one opinion, but shrinking text is a solid fix regardless of the spike.
