Wednesday	7 AM, 12 PM, 8 PM	Midweek peak. Beauty, fashion, and food carousels dominate.
Thursday	9 AM, 2 PM, 9 PM	Strongest day overall. Inspirational and aspirational content wins.
Friday	11 AM, 4 PM, 7 PM	Weekend prep mindset kicks in. Try going out and outfit posts.
Saturday	10 AM, 3 PM, 8 PM	Slow morning, long evening scrolls. Recipe and travel carousels shine.

Tighter browse window

Lemon8 users browse in two big bursts: morning routine and pre-bed scroll. Posting 30 minutes before each gets you onto the discover grid first.

Weekday vs weekend

Weekdays favor planning content: routines, productivity, outfits. Weekends favor lifestyle: travel, recipes, dates. Match content to the day.
