Level 5271 and 5305 reduced moves
Options
Second time in a week I have fewer moves than what any on line video shows. This time it's level 5305 and I only have 16 moves. Apparently the level had 25 moves then it was reduced to 18 and now 16(!?). This is getting ridiculous and I'm about to say see you later.
anyone else experiencing the same problems?
Last week it was this level 5271 reduced to 15 moves

We warmly welcome you to the Friendly King Community's Candy Crush Saga forum.
The Game Studios are constantly working on improving our games by introducing new features, gameplay or concepts.They closely monitor a game's difficulty, listen to player feedback about levels or features and may tweak things to enhance the player experience.
This means that sometimes videos available online do not reflect the current in-game content.
The video you saw was recorded from an older version of the game.

I want to know if others are having the same issue. I'm checking with my friends to see if they are stuck on "easy" levels -- do they have fewer moves than what other CC players are experiencing? I suspect King is using an algorithm to try and get us to pay for more moves.

Welcome @eesamarie The level guides at https://candycrush.fandom.com/wiki/Level are kept reasonably up to date if you need to check.
Also when searching videos on youtube, always use the filters for the most recent upload date:

Thank you for the helpful suggestions. Check my screen shots, then go check the levels. I have fewer moves than my friends playing on the same day on the same platform -- it's not some tweak that King has made for the level itself, it seemsto be targeted specifically to see if I'll buy extra moves.
Still trying to find out if others are having the same issue.

@eesamarie The game releases contain the levels and the number of moves and AFAIK can't be tailored to individual players. The in-game events work in the same way as advertising so test groups can (and are) created. As yeayea and Sukanta have said the levels do get changed from time to time if it is evident that a level is too difficult or too easy. It's a bugbear of mine as these revised levels don't seem to get the same amount of pre-release testing as the original and most reported glitches here are from post release revisions.
All I can suggest is that you check with your friends that you are using exactly the same release as them.
I cannot be of much further help as I don't play on the PC but can confirm that for me on android the moves are the same as the Wiki.
