A typical post picks up 136 interactions against 4.8M followers, an engagement rate of 0.003%. Measured over 60 original posts, its engagement rate beats 20% of 20,182 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 15K times each, and 0.876% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.325% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline.

Measured over 60 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on October 24, 2026. Recurring tags: #houthis, #bahrain, #ethiopia.
