As for my own consequences, to give you an idea of the impact on my listings, I have basically had as many bookings as I can manage since I started listing the rooms in my home in 2016, with the exception of some lock down periods during the pandemic, when Airbnb blocked the calendars of home shares in the UK.
By late 2021, things had picked up again and got back pretty much to pre-pandemic levels. Then, in early May, Airbnb rolled out their Summer Release and, for me (and many other hosts) it was an overnight disaster.
To give you an example, one of my rooms received approx. 2,300 views in the month directly proceeding the Summer Release. It received approx 230 views in the month directly after. Yes, the views dropped by 90%. The views continued to go down until they were only a handful a month. I mean literally a handful. At some points, I was getting zero views for the entire month for some of my listings.
Naturally, with so little views and my listings very hard to find in searches, not appearing on the map unless I zoomed over my own home etc. the bookings and enquiries stopped. Things eventually seemed to improve later in 2022, and then, in November, Airbnb introduced the Winter Release, and my enquires/booking requests have stopped again although, bizarrely, the number of views looks okay... Now I have no idea what is going on.
