Well, quite a while ago I noticed a trend; a considerable drop in followers after every batch of messages I answered separately in succession. I came up with the thesis (because I’m not as dumb as everypony thinks I am) that the cause of those unfollowers wasn’t the content, but the method of its distribution.
After comparison, I found that taking a screenshot of the questions and answering them all in one text post takes up way less space on a follower’s dashboard than answering each message separately, even with the picture (the one containing the question) expanded. While I have no concurrent control group to compare my findings with, the results have been pretty groovy (though I have received one or two notable complaints, specifically regarding viewership through mobile devices).
This has all lead me to the conclusion that the majority of ponies would rather have all of their information from a single source condensed into a compact newsletter-style format that they are free to either read at their leisure in a centralized location, or bypass at once if they have more important business with which to attend.
