Section: Video platforms · rg
On the page, RedGifs behaves like a video platform: audience, publication count, total views, and typical video metrics.
A metric table, worked examples, and short platform-specific notes.
All numbers are illustrative. They are here to explain the formula, not to describe a specific account.

|---|---|---|---|

Count | A direct count without extra recalculation. |
| Posts | rg_posts |

For video platforms, posting frequency and typical per-video metrics are usually the most important. Below is a sample calculation.
21 / 28median([18, 24, 27.50, 31.20, 40.80])median([1.90, 2.20, 2.60, 3, 3.70])Sum of views across all videos included in the analysisIf there are no valid values for a median, dstat returns an empty field rather than a fake 0%.
rg_followers, rg_posts, and rg_VVCount are best read as scale indicators.rg_ppd describes publishing frequency, while video medians show relative content quality.
