Pro tip: Post at 6:45 AM on Wednesdays got me 3x more views

I was stuck at 200 views per post for months on my art account. Then I noticed my biggest competitor always posted right before 7 AM and tried that slot. Has anyone else seen a weird time window that works better than the usual advice?

Tried that early morning slot for two weeks and saw almost no difference. My art account actually does better around 9 PM on weekends, which goes against everything the experts say. The time that works depends way more on your specific audience than any universal trick. What works for one person's followers might totally flop for yours because people scroll at different times.

Guess I'll just start posting at random times like a mad scientist until something sticks. Tried 3 AM once because I saw a tweet about it, ended up with two likes and both were from bots. Science says 9 PM works for river952 though, so maybe I need to scream into the void at different hours.

Used to think timing was ALL that mattered until I actually started tracking my own numbers across different days. Switching to a completely random hour that nobody recommends doubled my engagement while the "pro tips" did nothing for months. Point is, your audience has their own weird rhythm and you just gotta watch the data instead of following generic advice.
