Strategy summary

What's working, what to fix, and what to ship next.

TL;DR

**@techie007.dev sits on 452k followers but throttles growth at 2.3 posts/week. Post 17 exploded to 32k likes with a simple phone server hack proving hands-on builds dominate. Post 13's 7k likes on Rust migration and post 0's 11k on interviews confirm career and explainer pillars pull strongest engagement from devs hungry for real value. Lean harder into these for consistent virality. Cadence is the leak. Benchmark jumps to 5 posts/week on Tuesday-Thursday-Saturday windows to reclaim algorithm favor and scale those 32k peaks weekly. Tool launch hooks keep the feed fresh while hacks convert lurkers to superfans.
