Peak year 2023, three years ago. 18 of the 100 best posts X exposes came from 2023. 2025 produced 17. Holding, not climbing.
GitHub peaked in 2018. X caught up 5 years later, in 2023.
Above the X median for their size, on GitHub a quarter of days or more.

Positive: X caught up after the work.
X peak year minus GitHub peak year.
Sample: 100 top posts from 2015 to 2025, plus 47 from 2026 shown but not counted. X exposes about 100 public posts per handle and leans to the best ones, so this is a portrait of when the account did its most-rewarded work, not a log of what it posted last month.

Each series is scaled to its own best completed year, so the shapes line up and the units do not. Red: how many of the account’s hundred most-liked posts came from that year. Ink: days with at least one GitHub contribution, private days included. ▲ marks the peak of each record.
Counted from the same 100 posts as the card: a quote, a reply, or a mention each count one post for that account. Not followers, not likes received, only what @wesbos wrote into the best posts.
Among the 108 accounts we have read. Same numbers as the card, nothing weighted, nothing for sale.
