Against every launch in the directory it sits at 6.7 times the median of 575K views. Quote posts led, 2K of them at 5.2 per 10,000 views against a median of 1.4. People were adding their own take, which is how a launch gets argued about and carried into audiences the account does not have. Bookmarks: 4K. Reposts: 2K. One bookmark for every 4.9 likes is a low ratio for a launch, and reads as entertainment more than intent. The post opens with “Images, upgraded—introducing ChatGPT Images 2.6”. It carries a 35-second video against a directory median of 66 seconds. Videos between 30 and 90 seconds have a median of 499K views in the directory. The copy runs 26 words, about the usual length for a launch post here, where the median is 42. The body carries a link, so the post had somewhere to send the reader and paid a little reach for it. It went out on a Wednesday. Launches posted on a Wednesday have a median of 617K views in the directory, which makes it the strongest day.
