Surprised to see the Gemini app hit 650M monthly active users, thanks to Nano Banana I guess. ChatGPT has 800M weekly users (so likely ~1B monthly). Google’s catching up fast on the consumer app side. Gemini’s already generating 7B tokens/min vs. OpenAI’s 6B tokens/min?

Why it worked

Leads with a specific number, which is concrete enough to be worth a second of attention.
Uses concrete numbers instead of vague claims, which makes it credible and quotable.
Points at real customers, users or results as evidence rather than assertion.
Follows a clear Hook → Context → Invitation shape, so the reader always knows where they are.
Ends on a question, which is the most reliable way to turn readers into repliers.
Written from experience rather than as advice, which is harder to argue with.
