Saves led. 2K people bookmarked it, 10.2 per 10,000 views against a directory median of 11.7. A bookmark is a plan to come back, and it tracks signups and demo requests more closely than a like does.
The rest: 264 replies, 99 quotes, 278 reposts. One bookmark for every 1.2 likes is a high ratio and usually means a product people intend to try.
It starts “WTF is a SOTA Wife”. It carries a 1:12 video against a directory median of 65 seconds.
Videos between 30 and 90 seconds have a median of 603K views in the directory. The copy runs 51 words, about the usual length for 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 Sunday. Launches posted on a Sunday have a median of 526K views in the directory, and Friday is the strongest day at 880K.
