The post was enjoyed more than it was kept. One bookmark for every 4.2 likes is a low ratio for a launch, and reads as entertainment more than intent.
It starts “Hermes Agent v0.17.0 - The Reach Release”. It carries a 2:07 video against a directory median of 65 seconds.
Videos over 90 seconds have a median of 651K views in the directory. The copy runs 10 words, shorter than a launch post here, where the median is 41.
There is a link in the body, which costs a post some reach and buys it a place to send people. It went out on a Friday. Launches posted on a Friday have a median of 880K views in the directory, which makes it the strongest day.
Developer marketing strategy covers this: developers try before they read, so the post has to let them. For the next one, read X analytics explained: what each of these numbers means, with benchmarks by account size. Every launch we track in Developer Tool is on that vertical's directory page.
