they're definitely inflated elsewhere.
It was wild to me to see people go "I need IG, I get the biggest reach there" when facebook was PUBLICLY KNOWN to have faked numbers, forcing pivot to video.
Like, threads/fb/ig numbers? Those are fake. You are not actually getting that engagement.

I truly am amazed by the organic and authentic reach here, so much that I feel like the numbers elsewhere have to be inflated somehow. How can bsky get such great results with what would otherwise be "mid level" performance??
I noticed this with the pizza zine too

I know a lot of artists get really weird/neurotic about numbers; it's some kind of culture thing, but like... the numbers are fake. Don't pay attention to them. They are part of an addiction mechanism.
but really? the artist had hashtags on their post, and the 'fake' account was like "look at this amazing art!"
no, you posted it in like, august, and iirc, august is a general bad month for sharing work for whatever reason. the important thing is to post consistently, not to expect everything to do crazy amazing numbers.
