Heard from a 220K photography channel. They stopped pinning promo links and instead pinned a specific, easy-to-answer question on every upload, 'which one would you have picked, A or B?'

The data, comment counts roughly doubled in the first 24 hours, from ~120 to ~250 average. And early comment velocity is a signal the system watches for the launch window.

The knock-on a source flagged, those videos pulled about 25% more first-day browse impressions than their link-pinned baseline.
