Why timing matters for travel on Bluesky

Bluesky defaults to a chronological feed, meaning your post's visibility is directly tied to when you publish. Posts during peak hours receive 4-5x more engagement than those in off-hours. Custom algorithmic feeds exist but chronological is dominant.

Lunch-hour daydreaming (12-2 PM) and evening trip planning (6-9 PM) drive weekday engagement. Weekend late mornings (11 AM-1 PM) capture the wanderlust browsing window. Monday 'escape' content also performs well.
