Myth: new accounts get a "newbie reach boost"

Spun up a fresh account to test the rumored honeymoon boost. First 10 Reels averaged 300 views. My established account did 15k on the same content.

There's no automatic boost for being new — if anything you start cold with zero audience model. The "boost" people felt was just early novelty content doing numbers, not the account age.

Reposting the same clip 2 days apart proved it.

Do this: stop account-hopping for a phantom boost. Build the signal on one account.
