The video of Nemo's performance started gaining views instantly as soon as it was posted on the official Eurovision channel. An hour after it was posted, the mark exceeded 600 thousand views and almost 10 thousand comments. It should be said that not all of them were good.

The most popular messages read: "I can't believe this song is about to win," "If you have a good song at Eurovision, you lose 100%," "It's just impossible that 90% of the jury thinks Switzerland deserves 12 points." However, most of the comments were positive.

The official Eurovision account on Instagram is still dominated by congratulations to the winner. A lot of attention was paid to the fact that Nemo did not bring their flag on stage, but focused on the freedom of gender self-identification.
