Attributing signups to a launch covers this: a save rate this high is the number to follow into the product. For the next one, read giving people something to reply to: the conversation is what carried this one.
Why posts from large accounts under-reach is the guide for it: a post seen by fewer people than follow the account was held back by the ranking model. This launch sits in the Robotics and Frontier Lab directories.
