Garand Thumb engagement report
@GarandThumb1 - 570K followers on X
Measured over 43 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on August 26, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 3.0K interactions against 570K followers, an engagement rate of 0.525%. Measured over 43 original posts, its engagement rate beats 92% of 3,882 tracked accounts of a similar size. Comparing inside a size band matters here: engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly just re-measure the follower count. Posts are seen about 82K times each, and 3.66% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 14.3% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.6 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on almost every day in the window. Most posts go out around 16:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 43 posts sampled, 70% carry an image or video and 12% are part of a thread. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 21K interactions, about 6.9x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Garand Thumb's engagement rate beats 92% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,882 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 8 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 86% 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 16:00 UTC, and Sunday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked.
