Top-performing posts
The three posts pulling the most engagement in the last 90 days.
reel 110.69% engagedIn 2018, a New Jersey woman named Kate McClure ran out of gas late at night on a highway. A homeless veteran, Johnny Bobbitt Jr., saw her stranded and used his last $20 to buy her fuel so she could get home safely. He didn't ask for anything in return-he just wanted to make sure she wasn't in danger. Deeply moved, Kate and her partner started a fundraiser to help Johnny rebuild his life. The story went viral, and thousands of people donated. Although later events around the fundraiser became complicated, Johnny's original act remains a genuine moment of selfless kindness-a man with almost nothing giving the little he had to help a stranger in need.

Strategy summary
What's working, what to fix, and what to ship next.
TL;DR
The 2018 veteran gas-buying story is pure gold, exploding to 17091 likes on post 1 and 15941 on post 3, with 8760 on post 16. This exact narrative crushes on Mondays and Sundays, proving emotional human-interest reels dominate here. Repetition fueled initial virals but crashed later, like post 11's 98 likes and post 28's low traction on Saturdays. Zero posts per week is the silent killer, stalling at 15684 followers amid proven potential. Scale by varying the formula slightly while hammering peak days, avoiding spam flags for steady climbs.
