Gergely Orosz (@GergelyOrosz) has 128 posts in the library. Between them they drew 208,900 likes; the typical one reaches 938, and the biggest reached 14,643. Most of that work is about AI and Revenue. This is what the posts themselves say about how they write — not a profile, a pattern.

What they write about

  • AI — 79 of 128 posts (62%)
  • Revenue — 30 of 128 posts (23%)

Two or three subjects rather than one: a reader who follows for the first gets the others, which is how a niche account becomes a general one.

How they open

  • 85% of posts open with an observation
  • 10% of posts open with a number
  • 2% of posts open with a question

This is either brilliant or scary:
