A typical post picks up 160 interactions against 74K followers, an engagement rate of 0.215%. Measured over 30 original posts, its engagement rate beats 62% 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 3.2K times each, and 4.99% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 4.31% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2.2 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 23% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Saturday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 30 posts sampled, 87% carry an image or video, 7% are part of a thread and 17% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 3.2K interactions, about 20x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #budapest, #fahnenmarsch, #orbán.

Compared with accounts its own size

Balázs Orbán's engagement rate beats 62% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 6 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 85% 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.

Where this sits in the catalog

At 0.215%, Balázs Orbán sits above the 50th percentile of the 205,261 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the above the median band, which runs 0.143% to 0.678%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 205,261 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,894 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

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.

    German AfD co-leader Tino Chrupalla: "Do you know why Viktor Orbán went to Moscow? Hungarians pay 2.53 cents per kilowatt-hour for gas" "Yes, that is what he achieved there for his own population. That is sovereignty. He secured a good gas supplier for Hungary" "We in Germany pay 10 or 12 cents per kilowatt-hour"

    🇵🇱 Poland's immigration numbers are changing FAST, and the scale may surprise people. According to figures attributed to Poland's official migration database, residents from a selected group of countries increased from just 3,554 in 2019 to 165,160 in 2026. That's more than a 46-FOLD increase. Among them are roughly 24,000 Indians, 15,000 Vietnamese, 13,000 Turks and 12,000 Colombians. For a country long known for its relatively restrictive approach to immigration, that's a significant demographic shift in just seven years. And much of the increase appears to have happened since 2022. Source: CIG on TG / Writer: Oliver

    This is just too funny. 😄 The Czech Prime Minister puts Péter Magyar in his place as Magyar tries to pretend that Hungary is safe from illegal migration thanks to him. @AndrejBabis reminds him of the obvious: Hungary owes that to @PM_ViktorOrban. https://t.co/2ohiAuJttG

    Hungary's PM Péter Magyar on the EU: There is a lack of political leadership, to be honest, in the European Union. I know that there is a fight among the institutions to have more and more powers. It’s time, I think it’s the right time, to go back to the founding fathers of the European Union and to concentrate on real issues, on economic cooperation, on competitiveness.

    😬 For weeks, Hungary’s new government boasted about its invitations to world leaders, building an entire communications campaign around the guest list for Hungary’s national holiday on October 23. Péter Magyar proudly advertised invitations to some 100–150 foreign politicians, promising a major international gathering in Budapest to mark the 70th anniversary of the 1956 revolution. Awkwardly the guest list tells a rather different story. Donald Trump isn’t coming. Neither are Emmanuel Macron, Giorgia Meloni, Robert Fico, Friedrich Merz, Donald Tusk or Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. Macron’s absence is particularly humiliating. Magyar publicly announced that the French president would attend, only for the French embassy to clarify that his visit had never even been confirmed by France. And Benjamin Netanyahu? Well, his absence is hardly surprising either. Magyar invited the Israeli prime minister to Budapest, then made it clear that Netanyahu would have to be arrested if he entered Hungary under an International Criminal Court warrant. An invitation to Budapest, with the prospect of arrest upon arrival. Quite an interesting way to welcome a guest. A truly unique approach to diplomacy. But of course, Ursula von der Leyen — the “Brussels handler” — is coming. Instead of the grand gathering of world leaders, Hungarian newspapers are now reporting on the diplomatic fiasco surrounding the event. What was supposed to showcase the new Hungarian government’s international influence has turned into an embarrassing contrast between its PR campaign and diplomatic reality.

    ❗️EVERYONE NEEDS TO READ THIS! This is Hungary today! An attempt to extract incriminating testimony through arbitrary detention and mistreatment. Just like the political show trials of the 1950s… Below is a message written from prison by Balázs Bús, a political prisoner, former Fidesz mayor of Budapest’s 3rd district, and former Vice President of Hungary’s National Cultural Fund. „I am not afraid! For four months now, I have been wrongfully and unlawfully held in Szeged’s Csillag Prison by the Bács-Kiskun County Prosecutor’s Office, which has been intimidated (abused) and placed under the direct control of Péter Magyar. Although I have fully cooperated with the prosecution and answered every question, the political masterminds behind this show-trial-style prosecution want me to give testimony that contradicts not only the truth and reality, but also my faith. Non possum! To achieve this, they have continuously restricted my ability to communicate with the outside world since the very beginning of the proceedings, seeking to sever and destroy my relationships with my family and loved ones. I am grateful to everyone who stands by them during these evil times and supports us through their prayers. I am especially grateful for the solidarity of our Polish friends! There are no legitimate grounds for my detention. There is no risk of flight, as my lawyer and I informed the investigative authorities even before my arrest that I was at their disposal. The alleged risk of reoffending is equally false and ridiculous, as is the claim that I might interfere with the proceedings. The prosecutor handling my case knows this perfectly well. The investigating judge at the Kecskemét District Court performs no meaningful judicial scrutiny, since it is common knowledge that judges in Kecskemét approve 100% of prosecutors’ requests (which, of course, raises the question of why these judges are needed at all). What is even more disturbing is that this has created an unchecked concentration of power in the hands of prosecutors, enabling abuses of authority, as my own case clearly demonstrates. But, to quote the words of András Visky: “Does it even make sense to question legality in an age when lawlessness itself has been enshrined in law?” In his speeches in Parliament and in Kisvárda, Péter Magyar made it absolutely clear to the authorities what verdict he expects them to deliver. It is beyond any doubt that I am the victim of a politically orchestrated show trial. In 1956, my father was 22 years old. As a soldier stationed in Esztergom, he stood on the side of the revolution. He never joined the Communist Party. In 1956, my mother was 20 years old. She survived the volley of gunfire unleashed by the ÁVO communist state security forces in Kossuth Square. She never joined the Communist Party. In 1988, at the age of 22, I joined Fidesz to help put an end to the one-party system, the tyranny that restricted our freedoms, and the communist party-state that had devastated my parents’ generation. In 1986, forty years ago, the political officer at the Cegléd military barracks and military counterintelligence tried to force me into giving false testimony. They failed. And now, in 2026, at the age of 60, I have become a political prisoner of resurgent Bolshevik hatred and power. After 1956, the ideological predecessors of Péter Magyar executed the martyr József Kováts here, in Szeged’s Csillag Prison. Within these very walls, I pray for him and for all the revolutionaries who were sentenced and imprisoned in Csillag as part of the reprisals following the 1956 Hungarian Revolution and War of Independence. Blessed be their memory. “We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed.” (2 Corinthians 4:8–9) “I give thanks for everything, even for being taken away, because through it I have drawn closer to God.” (János Esterházy) Csillag Prison, October 22, 2026 Memorial of Saint Pope John Paul II Balázs Bús I am not afraid!”

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 160 interactions against 74K followers, an engagement rate of 0.215%. Measured over 30 original posts, its engagement rate beats 62% 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 3.2K times each, and 4.99% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 4.31% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2.2 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 23% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Saturday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 30 posts sampled, 87% carry an image or video, 7% are part of a thread and 17% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 3.2K interactions, about 20x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #budapest, #fahnenmarsch, #orbán.

What is Balázs Orbán's engagement rate on X?
Balázs Orbán (@BalazsOrban_HU) has an engagement rate of 0.215%, based on the median interactions across 30 original posts from the last 30 days against 74,417 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.215%, Balázs Orbán sits above the 50th percentile of the 205,261 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 @BalazsOrban_HU have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 62% 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 @BalazsOrban_HU post?
Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Saturday is its busiest day, at roughly 2.23 posts per day across the measured window.

Keep going
