A typical post picks up 105 interactions against 4.8M followers, an engagement rate of 0.002%. Measured over 210 original posts, its engagement rate beats 17% of 20,444 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 26K times each, and 0.411% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.534% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline.

Measured over 210 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on October 26, 2026. Recurring tags: #sciencepodcast, #sciencereview, #scienceperspective.
