Lemon8 Weighted Engagement Score Formula

Lemon8's algorithm values engagement signals differently, heavily prioritizing saves and shares over basic likes.

Total Interactions = Likes + Comments + Saves + Shares
Engagement Rate = (Total Interactions / Views) × 100
Algorithmic Engagement Score = Min(100, [(Likes × 1 + Comments × 5 + Saves × 10 + Shares × 15) / Views] × 100)

Saves and Shares indicate high content value and dwell time, signaling the recommendation engine to distribute the post to a wider audience on the For You page.
