@AlanEyre1 - 95K followers on X
Measured over 26 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on September 17, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 106 interactions against 95K followers, an engagement rate of 0.112%. Measured over 26 original posts, its engagement rate beats 53% of 20,444 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 5.3K times each, and 2.00% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 5.58% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 4 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 23% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 17:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 26 posts sampled, 54% carry an image or video and 35% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 4.8K interactions, about 45x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #iranwar, #nothingburgeranyone, #bassackwards.

Compared with accounts its own size
Alan Eyre's engagement rate beats 53% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 7 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.
On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 61% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 17:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Formats this account uses
Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.
| Format | This account | Catalog effect | 95% interval | Accounts behind it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Image or video | 54% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 35% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | no effect | -2% to -1% | 42K |
- 54% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
- 35% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts.
- Its average post runs 269 characters, which falls in the 180 - 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts of 180 to 280 characters match the same accounts' other posts almost exactly.
These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

.@USTradeRep on talks with Canada: "We offered them the best access to the United States of any country in the world... I don't know if it was political for them. It certainly doesn't make economic sense... but they came in and they wanted more, and we weren't prepared to do that."

Trump’s treasury secretary Scott Bessent just gave the most unhinged speech about how the US is unleashing Operation Economic Outcast on Iran and sanctioning every country that does business with them. This will backfire and unleash more economic hardship on the American people. https://t.co/75bzozqaFY

I make it a rule never to disagree with @anneapplebaum because it simply serves to cause me embarrassment, and once this occasion is no exception. Diplomacy is now a ‘has been’ US interests are no longer aligned with the best interests of Americans, but rather to satisfy the greed of far right predators at the top of the economic food chain.

Over the past seven complete days, the Middle East region has exported nearly six million barrels of crude oil per day via the US Navy blockade line to global markets. During entire February 2026, the daily average stood over nineteen million barrels per day. #OOTT #IranWar #Tankers

More than 30% of the entire US Navy is enforcing the #Iran blockade today -- costing ~$1bn a month. The elite 82nd Airborne Division... is on track for a 12-month deployment in the #MiddleEast without seeing any action. @becca_wasser for @business: https://t.co/kMmUBqb9H7

Four questions about the so-called D-day sanctions, and an overriding point: devastating a country is a far cry from accomplishing a defined policy objective: 1. Do we (or the administration) know what comes next? Not really. The announcement was as belligerent as it was vague. Bessent’s most revealing admission was that immediately imposing the sanctions in full would blow up the global financial system. If the Trump administration is unwilling to do that now, why would it be willing to do it at any point? And if not, what will they do when third parties refuse to cooperate? 2. Can the plan work? Putting aside the small matter that the administration has not specified what it intends to achieve, whether it can succeed depends on what “work” means. Can more pressure devastate Iran’s economy and inflict enormous suffering on its people? Absolutely. Expect the administration to regularly trot out statistics documenting economic contraction and currency collapse. But can more pressure force Iran’s leadership to surrender positions they consider essential? Almost certainly not. In fact, the more convinced they are that Washington seeks their overthrow, the less willing they will be to give in. Of course, they know and openly admit the depth of the economic crisis. If offered a broadly acceptable deal, many among them would have every incentive to take it. But that deal would probably have to be akin to the earlier MOU, only with greater clarity about Iran’s control over the Strait of Hormuz. In other words, roughly the deal they might have accepted before and without D-Day… 3. What happens if the plan “works”? If the sanctions work in the sense of truly cratering Iran’s economy, Tehran is more likely to retaliate than capitulate, to ensure the US, the region, and the wider world also pay a heavy price for this economic warfare. That in turn would lead to the very military escalation the D-day sanctions are supposed to avert. 4. Finally, regardless of the outcome, can such draconian sanctions be justified? No doubt, elements of the Iranian leadership will pay a price. But, as @yarbatman points out, the principal victims will be ordinary Iranians whose suffering has become the chief measure of the policy’s success, targets of an unconscionable, indiscriminate, and almost certainly unlawful sanctions regime.

Dropping April 2027. My longest, most ambitious book, The Triumph of Normal is also a statement of deep optimism. It challenges doomers, Left and Right, by showing the resilience of religion, family, politics, and creativity under the most ferocious anti-normality attacks.

A typical post picks up 106 interactions against 95K followers, an engagement rate of 0.112%.

- What is Alan Eyre's engagement rate on X?
- Alan Eyre (@AlanEyre1) has an engagement rate of 0.112%, based on the median interactions across 26 original posts from the last 30 days against 95,391 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.112%, Alan Eyre sits above the 25th percentile of the 204,694 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
- Does @AlanEyre1 have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 53% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
- When does @AlanEyre1 post?
- Most posts go out around 17:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day, at roughly 3.97 posts per day across the measured window.
