Bookmarks came in at 3K, reposts at 411. One bookmark for every 1.2 likes is a high ratio and usually means a product people intend to try.

The first line is “We raised $136M to kill Slack”. It carries a 2:46 video against a directory median of 65 seconds.

Videos over 90 seconds have a median of 651K views in the directory. The copy runs 19 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 Wednesday. Launches posted on a Wednesday have a median of 721K views in the directory, and Friday is the strongest day at 880K.
