# Do Scheduled LinkedIn Posts Get Less Engagement Than Posts Published Manually?

I’ve noticed that some of my **scheduled LinkedIn posts** get fewer reactions and comments than posts I publish by hand, even when the topics and formats are similar. It’s a small sample, though, so I can’t tell whether scheduling is part of the reason or just coincidence.

Has anyone compared scheduled posts with manually published ones over a longer period? I’m curious whether timing, audience activity, or the type of content matters more than how the post was published.
