I have good news for you. you havent lost your ability to make fun, creative, dynamic and appealing art. just stay on the lookout for fun ideas that come to you, write what you think of or maybe open up a file and just doodle a bunch of art ideas that you can go to whenever you feel stuck or undedicated to making something you feel will be boring.
we often get caught up in trying to get every single detail in place once we start to learn construction and form and end up drawing slower, safer things. I think that might be what you're doing. try to draw faster than you think and only be critical in the end stages of your piece. this will help you bring your mind back from the technical aspects to self-expression.

also, its very important not to let social media dictate the value of your art. if you think your art is well-made, it is well-made. its just not resonating with the audience (and maybe possibly not with you) but that just doesn't matter. since you are learning, just learn at your own pace, and draw what you love. eventually those people will go like "nice" at your stuff again.

remember that its not about you as an artist. there is nothing wrong with you. don't beat yourself up. its about the art pieces you are making, which might be a little bit boring right now but its because you're excited to try out the new tricks you've been learning. you are not a shitty advanced artist. you are making shitty advanced artwork.
