Vent: I spent 3 days on a detailed piece, then posted it at 2 PM and got zero likes

I finished a big digital painting of a fantasy cityscape, working on it for about 3 hours each evening. I was really proud of it and posted it to my usual art accounts on a Tuesday afternoon. By the next morning, it had maybe 5 views and no interaction at all. I usually get at least some comments. It makes me wonder if posting time matters way more than the art itself, or if my work just didn't connect this time. Has anyone else had a piece they loved totally flop, and what did you do next?

My Tuesday posts always get buried in the feed.

Have you tried posting at a different time? My stuff did way better when I switched from mornings to after lunch.
