Comment on It's quite strange that I can just go online and say a thing and probably atleast a thousand people are going to read it.

Helps to keep in mind Pareto distributions. You usually have to calculate them for individual social media systems, but a common rule of thumb on reddit was between 100-1000 between steps.

If 1 person commented, 10-100 people may have upvoted, and 1000-10000 may have clicked and not engaged further.

For every one post, there are 10-100 commenters, 100-1000 upvoters, and 1000-100k+ viewers.
