Early reading. We have captured 1 original post for this account, below the 8 we require before treating a median as settled. The numbers above describe what we have seen so far, not a finished profile of the account.

A typical post picks up 62 interactions against 2.9M followers, an engagement rate of 0.002%. Measured over 1 original post, its engagement rate beats 17% of 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 8.3K times each, and 0.743% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.29% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.07 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 3% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Saturday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 1 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 3.0K interactions, about 48x its own typical post. Only 1 original post have been captured so far, fewer than the 8 posts we want behind a median before treating it as settled. Read the figures above as an early measurement of this account, not as a finished profile of it.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 36,521 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 107,166 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 15:00 UTC, and Saturday 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.

    Pay attention to what just happened in Texas. A lone state rep decided that the GOP’s demand that she sign a “permission slip” to allow police surveillance of her was a step too far. So she refused to leave the chamber. Her small act of defiance has lit up the state and the nation. My write-up in the replies.

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 62 interactions against 2.9M followers, an engagement rate of 0.002%. Measured over 1 original post, its engagement rate beats 17% of 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 8.3K times each, and 0.743% of those impressions turn into an interaction.

What is George Takei's engagement rate on X?
George Takei (@GeorgeTakei) has an engagement rate of 0.002%, based on the median interactions across 1 original posts from the last 30 days against 2,877,599 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.002%, George Takei sits above the 10th percentile of the 36,521 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 @GeorgeTakei have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 17% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count, 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 @GeorgeTakei post?
Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Saturday is its busiest day, at roughly 0.07 posts per day across the measured window.
