Thoughts On My First "Viral" Tweet

Current count: 53 Retweets, 99 Likes.

I don't know if that's officially "viral" but it's probably my most successful Tweet (and it's a quote Retweet of someone else's article).

    1. Engagement From The Weirdest Account(s)

    0

    There was one, a self-professed porn slinger (who somehow wanted to combine AI into his efforts). His comments were surprisingly heartfelt and insightful, but the rest of the tweets I saw from the profile seemed borderline deranged - though still human, in my estimation.

    2. Very Few Accounts That I Wanted To Follow

    3. I Ended Up Responding to a Bot

    0

    In spite of knowing how many responses would be bots, and that I should leave well enough alone.

    4. But Then It Didn't Seem To Be A Bot

    0

    The user directed me to do some research that actually deepened my understanding of the matter at hand.

    5. Negative Comments...

    0

    Aren't upsetting because they are negative, but more because of how predictable they are.

    6. I think I understand 'Ratio' better now

    0

    While Likes and Retweets went into the double digits, I had only 8 comments. Since most comments are disputing or outright negative, I think the Tweet has a 'good' ratio.
