Key Insights
- 1Meaning splits into two high-engagement clusters: (a) CG/animation character rigging and (b) political “rigging” claims. On X, the political cluster typically drives higher raw reach but lower sustained engagement quality (more replies/quote-posts, higher toxicity, faster decay); on Bluesky/Mastodon, the CG cluster is more discoverable and produces higher bookmark/save-like behavior (longer-tail clicks to portfolios/GitHub/YouTube).
- 2Best-performing content formats are highly demonstrative: 10–30s before/after clips (deformation tests, facial rig, IK/FK switch), 2–6 image carousels (wireframe → weights → final pose), and short “rig breakdown” threads with a single clear metric (e.g., ‘3-bone IK + stretch + volume preservation’). Posts that include a tool tag (#Blender/#Maya) and a concrete outcome (download, tutorial, rig file) typically see better conversion than general “WIP” updates.
- 3Platform nuance: X favors velocity—front-load the hook in the first 120 characters, add 1 native clip, and reply to your own post with technical details to keep the main post clean (helps retweets). Bluesky benefits from tighter topical tagging (2–4 tags) and concise alt-text that doubles as keywords; early replies by peers increase visibility in custom feeds. Mastodon is federation-driven—post with a descriptive first line (for timeline scanning), use 3–5 tags max, and consider reposting a refined version 12–24h later for other time zones without looking spammy.
Pro Tip: Disambiguate the meaning to win the algorithmAI
Because #rigging is ambiguous, pair it with a clarifier in the first line and in your tag set (e.g., “Character rigging test in #Blender” + #animation/#3d). On X, avoid political cross-traffic by excluding loaded terms and focusing on a single native clip; on Bluesky/Mastodon, add a short breakdown + link to the rig/tutor in a follow-up reply to capture saves and long-tail clicks.
