God damn, I hate Perplexity. There is a huge difference between "sharing a link to a story with a quote" and "wholesale ripping off multiple articles and then presenting their findings as your own in a way that deprives the publisher of any real traffic, credit or revenue"

Viral score

Based on absolute engagement — the platform doesn’t expose follower counts here, so large accounts score higher.

From likes, comments.

Why it worked

Opens with a short, self-contained line that is easy to take in at a glance.
The opening line stands alone, so it reads completely before the post is expanded.
Written from experience rather than as advice, which is harder to argue with.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.
Quotes someone directly, which makes the moment concrete rather than summarised.

The mechanics

Hook: Plain observation
Structure: Hook
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
Tone: personal, blunt
Written for: Growth and marketing teams
