Kind of feels like yeah, I’m seeing it too, but I’m not convinced it’s some clean “site got punished” thing. A couple of my pages did the same dumb little dance this week — impressions mostly hanging in there, clicks just getting kneecapped. One query got shoved way down by a giant Reddit result and a couple of those junky SERP blocks, so the page looks dead even though it’s not really gone. Still, if the drop is across a bunch of pages and not just one affiliate page, I’d be checking GSC for query changes and device split before I start blaming the page itself. Google loves making it look like your site fell off a cliff when it’s really just rearranging the mess.
