CASE: 15 minutes of replies before every post
An account added a fixed pre-post routine: 15 minutes of genuine replies in their niche, then publish.
— Posts launched after the warm-up averaged 40% higher first-hour engagement than cold posts from the same account.
Label: Rumored (account-level, plausible audience-priming effect).
What it means for your reach: early velocity is the gate, and warming up your own audience right before posting seeds that critical first hour with people already in-app and primed to see you. It's not a hidden algo trick — it's making your initial distribution land on awake humans. Cheap, repeatable, and re-confirmable on your own account.
