Engagement
A typical post picks up 336 interactions against 212K followers, an engagement rate of 0.158%. Measured over 28 original posts, its engagement rate beats 68% 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 31K times each, and 1.08% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 14.7% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.3 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 63% of days. Most posts go out around 18:00 UTC, and Saturday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 28 posts sampled, 43% carry an image or video and 54% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 49K interactions, about 151x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Jeet Heer's engagement rate beats 68% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 9 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 45% 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 0.158%, Jeet Heer sits above the 50th percentile of the 204,694 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the above the median band, which runs 0.143% to 0.677%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 18:00 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.

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 | 43% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 54% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | no effect | -2% to -1% | 42K |
- 43% 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.
- 54% 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 242 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.

Nearly every day toward the end of my tenure at The Washington Post, someone would complain to me about Jeff Bezos' changes. His decimation of the local news team. His abandonment of DC sports coverage. The shriveled Bezos opinion page, with the ideological diversity of a doorknob. Today, The Washington Sun launches. It has made enormous new investments: +110 newsroom staff; DC's legendary food columnist; truly the best DMV reporters; a beloved weather blog; a growing roster of columnists; tons of worldclass reporters across many national beats; and also me. The Washington Sun will not be perfect. We will write stories that you find annoying, dumb, or misinformed. I will make mistakes (& tell me if I do - [email protected]!). But at a time where investments in reporting are evaporating, I'm so excited The Sun is hiring real journalists doing real reporting. If you want to help, I would love if you signed up for our (free!) newsletters, which routinely get genuinely rave reviews: National coverage: https://t.co/l8cXNS6tEI Local coverage: https://t.co/PlhqRf5e01

oh you're a British novelist of the twentieth century and your writing satirises the cloying social conventions of the aristocracy while at once mourning its inevitable eclipse by a crude and grasping middle class? Wow. Tell me more about your repressed homosexuality

George Chuvalo has died. Born on this day in 1937, he was a five-time Canadian heavyweight champion and twice fought Muhammad Ali. In 93 fights, he was never knocked down. Ali called him the toughest man he ever fought. He had 73 wins, 64 by knockout. RIP Champ. 📸 Toronto Sun https://t.co/CETLtmTNhw

I think a lot of traditional media is struggling with its diminished role as narrative setter, and frustrated with a fractured information ecosystem that has empowered people like Hasan Piker That resentment has come through in coverage, where calls to condemn the streamer read to me like an attempt to resurrect the world where we were the sole referees of political discourse. That time is over On @studyhallxyz with @quepaso_daniel

I'm incredibly excited to announce the founding of the Mathematical AI safety Institute (MAISI) https://t.co/7h28dBocA6. AI safety needs more foundational theoretical development, and mathematicians have the skills and the mindset to help! MAISI is an independent institute with visiting positions ranging from 1 semester to 2 years. Our goal is to get mathematicians up to speed and working on research directions in AI safety as quickly as possible. There is important work to be done, and there is real progress to be made. YOU can help! Applications are open now! MAISI is aiming to hire 10-30 mathematicians to join us in the Bay Area by January, and scale up to 30-100 for September 2027. If you're a mathematician interested in channeling your skills toward the most important problem of our time, please apply today! https://t.co/PTWQh0MK3T

Reading these numbers
A typical post picks up 336 interactions against 212K followers, an engagement rate of 0.158%. Measured over 28 original posts, its engagement rate beats 68% 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 31K times each, and 1.08% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 14.7% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.3 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 63% of days. Most posts go out around 18:00 UTC, and Saturday is the busiest day of the week.

- What is Jeet Heer's engagement rate on X?
- Jeet Heer (@HeerJeet) has an engagement rate of 0.158%, based on the median interactions across 28 original posts from the last 30 days against 212,411 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.158%, Jeet Heer sits above the 50th 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 @HeerJeet have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 68% 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 @HeerJeet post?
- Most posts go out around 18:00 UTC, and Saturday is its busiest day, at roughly 3.33 posts per day across the measured window.
