A typical post picks up 14 interactions against 84K followers, an engagement rate of 0.017%. Measured over 40 original posts, its engagement rate beats 24% 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 1.1K times each, and 1.36% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.26% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline.

Measured over 40 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on October 2, 2026.
