Gareth Cliff engagement report
@GarethCliff - 1.8M followers on X
Measured over 40 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on October 7, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 70 interactions against 1.8M followers, an engagement rate of 0.004%. Measured over 40 original posts, its engagement rate beats 24% of 15,519 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 13K times each, and 0.524% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.747% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.2 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on almost every day in the window. Most posts go out around 07:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 40 posts sampled, 40% carry an image or video and 60% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 103K interactions, about 1477x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #broadcasting, #gcs, #greenland.

Compared with accounts its own size
Gareth Cliff's engagement rate beats 24% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (15,519 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 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 33% 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 07:00 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 | 40% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 60% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | no effect | -2% to -1% | 42K |
- 40% 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.
- 60% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts, so a large share of this account's output sits in the weakest bucket we measure.
- Its average post runs 235 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.

Absolutely incredible… TRUMP: "It’s deeply ironic that the UN has an entire institution devoted to protecting cultural heritage, yet they promote mass migration and are actively destroying the greatest cultures and most extraordinary heritage." https://t.co/lcYCmELmtZ

This week, Anthropic delivered a master class in arrogance and betrayal as well as a textbook case of how not to do business with the United States Government or the Pentagon. Our position has never wavered and will never waver: the Department of War must have full, unrestricted access to Anthropic’s models for every LAWFUL purpose in defense of the Republic. Instead, @AnthropicAI and its CEO @DarioAmodei, have chosen duplicity. Cloaked in the sanctimonious rhetoric of “effective altruism,” they have attempted to strong-arm the United States military into submission - a cowardly act of corporate virtue-signaling that places Silicon Valley ideology above American lives. The Terms of Service of Anthropic’s defective altruism will never outweigh the safety, the readiness, or the lives of American troops on the battlefield. Their true objective is unmistakable: to seize veto power over the operational decisions of the United States military. That is unacceptable. As President Trump stated on Truth Social, the Commander-in-Chief and the American people alone will determine the destiny of our armed forces, not unelected tech executives. Anthropic’s stance is fundamentally incompatible with American principles. Their relationship with the United States Armed Forces and the Federal Government has therefore been permanently altered. In conjunction with the President's directive for the Federal Government to cease all use of Anthropic's technology, I am directing the Department of War to designate Anthropic a Supply-Chain Risk to National Security. Effective immediately, no contractor, supplier, or partner that does business with the United States military may conduct any commercial activity with Anthropic. Anthropic will continue to provide the Department of War its services for a period of no more than six months to allow for a seamless transition to a better and more patriotic service. America’s warfighters will never be held hostage by the ideological whims of Big Tech. This decision is final.

Woke reporter SHUTS DOWN my Interview when I expose her as a racist. She says it is not possible to be racist toward white people. When I show her that simple logic disproves everything she is saying, she is forced to get up & end the conversation. https://t.co/MC3CaCRhzf

Kelsey Grammer on reparations: I don’t have to apologize for my grandparents. “My grandparents were extraordinary people. They survived the Depression. They fought World War II. My grandfather was away from home for 28 months in the South Pacific. This is not a man who has to apologize for who he is.” “Do the people who have ancestors who were killed in the Civil War owe reparations? Do the Italians who came after the Civil War owe money? Do the Irish who came through Ellis Island owe money? I think it’s just a dodge.” @KelseyGrammer @piersmorgan

The most uplifting architectural revival happening today is in Budapest. Budapest is erasing the brutalist blight from its communist past. This building at Kossuth Square has been restored according to its original plans from the 1920s. Many such examples around the city. https://t.co/nbt2c9CMZz

Reading these numbers
A typical post picks up 70 interactions against 1.8M followers, an engagement rate of 0.004%. Measured over 40 original posts, its engagement rate beats 24% of 15,519 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 13K times each, and 0.524% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.747% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline.

- What is Gareth Cliff's engagement rate on X?
- Gareth Cliff (@GarethCliff) has an engagement rate of 0.004%, based on the median interactions across 40 original posts from the last 30 days against 1,801,596 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.004%, Gareth Cliff sits above the 10th percentile of the 156,027 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 @GarethCliff have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 24% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (15,519 accounts), which puts it in the bottom quarter for its size 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 @GarethCliff post?
- Most posts go out around 07:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day, at roughly 3.17 posts per day across the measured window.
