Engagement
A typical post picks up 4 interactions against 155K followers, an engagement rate of 0.003%. Measured over 58 original posts, its engagement rate beats 10% of 19,933 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 3.0K times each, and 0.151% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.91% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline.
Measured over 58 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on September 23, 2026.
