Even just recently I was reminded of the ripples that come with increased engagement. A couples of weeks ago I took advantage of some free time and blew up my interacting in a thoughtful manner.
I began to notice an uptick in comments, followers, and yes, even upvotes over time. I also learned some things from some of the very smart people we have here on Hive.
I can also confirm what you've pointed out when it comes to commenting at different times of day when I experimented at posting during different times of day. You get a varied crowd as the world goes round. So you're right, step on that gas and keep going!

Making good use of your extra time I see.
Ever since I've focused on engagement my posts have had way more interaction. I can't say that always results in the highest payout, but I really enjoy it when people actually choose to consume the things that I take the time to create.
Some people may be asleep if you always post in the morning. Then by the time they wake up, their feed is full of other new content and they may miss what you posted. Varying when you post can be quite a tactical move.
