Thanks in part to the year-long run up and debut of “The Book of Boba Fett,” which just premiered two days ago, we’ve surpassed 150,000 followers this year counting our website’s memberships with our Facebook<\/a>, Instagram<\/a>, Twitter<\/a>, YouTube<\/a> and Tumblr<\/a>. Our global team has expanded to new volunteers as we continue to create, organize, and signal boost great content. Here’s a recap of our most popular content from January 1 to today, December 31.<\/p>\n

If all social platforms were awesome, we could compare all things on the same metric, but unfortunately some stats we can get with ease are based on reach\/impressions\/views and others are based on likes, the latter of which of course are harder to earn. We’ve noted that alongside each data set below.<\/p>\n

Facebook<\/h3>\n

Here are our top 10 posts based on total likes (on our page plus<\/u> shared posts) in 2020 Facebook<\/a>, where we currently have over 66k fans:<\/p>\n
