Hi everyone,
Has anyone noticed engagement changes after recent platform updates? Curious how others are adapting and what adjustments have helped stabilize reach.
Open to learning from different experiences.

It’s normal to see engagement tank after algorithm updates because platforms test new ranking signals all the time.

I have noticed engagement shifts after recent updates — reach seems more tied to early interaction signals (comments/saves) than just views or likes. What’s helped for me is tightening hooks, encouraging interaction (questions/polls), and focusing on retention rather than volume. Curious to hear how others are adapting too!

Yeah, I’ve noticed a change too but in a good way. My reach has actually been going up. I haven’t changed much, just been staying consistent with my posts.

Yes — many are seeing reach/engagement shifts after recent ranking updates, and the best adjustments have been stronger hooks, higher retention, more native-style content, and focusing on true audience value over spammy tactics.
