Okay, now, full disclaimer. I, for some reason, thought I didn't need to bring my camera to the cabin. Why? Because I'm some sort of genius, I don't know. So let's say that the photoshoot with a phone was an adventure. Most photos came out silly so... Sigh... Let's go
For those of you who sometimes post on #DogsOfMastodon and #DogsOfFediverse and think that maybe they shouldn't bother because you don't see many people interacting with it, think again! They might not interact with your posts but they definitely see them!
I'm missing good metrics for Mastodon so I get them however I can, which includes links. When I post an Amazon link, I can see how many of you clicked on it (click away, I get no money from clicks). 1/2
From my (very limited) data, for every 25 interactions on a post with a link, I get 1500 clicks on the link. That's a lot of people! So yes, perhaps you don't see many people interacting with your posts but keep posting! Post when you're happy! Post when you're sad! They might be quiet about it but somebody sees your dog and it makes their day!
Edit: actually appropriate for #Mondog as well 2/2
i need all the hits of happy feels i can get while getting treatment for this disease. i get those with cute pics of cats and dogs and the Sunday shenanigans while watching cheesy monster movies.
