Engagement

Engagement velocity: 0 in the first 24h, 0 across the first seven days

Engagement events (likes, comments, shares) per unit time over the recent window. The 24-hour figure is sensitive to a single hot day; the 7-day figure smooths it. Often diagnostic in the first week after publish; less so after a video stabilizes.
