Good to know

• Facebook shows a limited number of posts per search, usually 20 to 100 per keyword. Use more specific keywords or Recent posts on a schedule to keep collecting new ones over time.
• Only public posts appear. Posts from private groups and friends-only posts are never included.
• Top posts follows Facebook's relevance ranking and can include older posts; Recent posts is newest first.
• Facebook rounds some very large totals for logged-out visitors, so a post with more than 10,000 reactions can show exactly 10000. Photo and video links expire after some hours.
