Just out of curiosity, I decided to just give it a shot. Rather than changing multiple criteria of different kinds, on November 20, I simply changed my gender to male and identified as non-trans.

I noticed that my reach flattened again, so I just changed it back to female for a while, then decided to change it again to male in early December. I saw another boost from 189 to 894, although I havenโt really been posting there much, so that could be one of the contributors. But stillโฆ
I want to scream this article out loud to my female network. Many many thanks for the deep insights!

That's why I created @Codelikeagirl. To bring together thousands of voices of women in tech and amplify them.
