<b>Caption line 1 is a second hook, I was wasting mine</b>
My captions used to open with 'In this video...' — dead weight. Swapped to a contradiction line: 'This took me 4 months to figure out and it's stupid.'
Saves jumped. People stop to read the caption, which keeps them on the Reel longer, which feeds watch time.
Next 10 min: rewrite your last 3 captions so line 1 either contradicts the video, asks a sharp question, or drops a number. No 'in this video.'
