Organizing my social media

m_of_disguiseI have gotten my butt in gear and found an Instagram scheduling app that seems worth downloading. I'll do that after work today, and spend some time tonight setting up posts for theladyrebecca's Victorian February challenge.
I also discovered that you can schedule community posts on YouTube, so I'm going to try and set up twice-weekly posts for the next month or so. I was watching a video about how YouTube has heavily weighted their community interaction, so the more likes, comments, and poll answers you get on your community posts, the more your content is disseminated through the algorithm. The video was specifically about hacking the algorithm by including all the major search terms in the text of your posts, but I honestly have no reason at all to include pewdiepie or baby shark in my text, and just including a paragraph of gibberish in order to drive up visibility with random people on YouTube who probably have no interest in sewing seems squicky somehow.
Anyway, I posted a poll earlier today and already have quite a few votes, and two new subscribers, so hopefully that's an indication of things to come.
Here's the video on the community algorithm, for those interested.
