Appreciation post: My cousin's cat video got 10 views, then 50,000 after one comment from a local news anchor.
It sat dead for a week, then the algorithm picked it up and pushed it to the whole city's 'For You' page overnight. Has anyone else seen a single interaction trigger that kind of sudden, specific geographic boost?
Ever try just not using the app for a few days? I had to do that once... it felt like it reset what it showed me. The feed got a lot less weird after that. It's like the algorithm needs to forget your old habits to stop pushing the same annoying stuff.
