Posting at 2pm on a Tuesday got me 10x the views I get at 7pm

I spent months posting my art at 7pm because that's when everyone said to post. Last Tuesday I had a doctor's appointment and accidentally posted my new piece at 2pm instead. Got 1,200 views in three hours compared to my usual 80. I think the algorithm likes when there's less competition for attention during off hours. Has anyone else tested different times and seen weird results like this?

Funny how breaking the rules sometimes works better.

4 out of 5 times my GPS takes me through some back alley that's clearly a shortcut for locals only. Guess I'm a rule breaker too, @jackson.sarah. Works better until you hit a dead end.
