A typical post picks up 252 interactions against 84K followers, an engagement rate of 0.302%. Measured over 47 original posts, its engagement rate beats 69% of 6,494 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 7.4K times each, and 3.39% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 8.90% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2.3 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 37% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 12:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 47 posts sampled, 51% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 2.5K interactions, about 9.8x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

MACHIAVELLIST's engagement rate beats 69% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (6,494 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 4 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 76% 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 0.302%, MACHIAVELLIST sits above the 50th percentile of the 65,864 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the above the median band, which runs 0.1% to 0.499%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 65,864 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 57,191 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 12:00 UTC, and Wednesday 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.

This account's posting mix compared with catalog-wide effects
FormatThis accountCatalog effect95% intervalAccounts behind it
Image or video51% of posts+111%+108% to +115%34K

  • 51% 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.
  • 4% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts.
  • Its average post runs 360 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 15% above the same accounts' other posts.

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.

    Уже понад 12 годин у Києві триває ЧЕРГОВЕ пряме бойове зіткнення між двома силовими відомствами. Знову співробітники ГУР і СБУ вступили у вогневий контакт. Наразі відомо про трьох поранених. Територію навколо місця події оточила поліція. Що взагалі відбувається з єдністю та координацією українських силових структур під час війни?

    В ситуації з Редкліффом дуже цікаві два моменти. Перший, що він цілу добу робив у Ризі. Другий, що після того, як він прилетів у США, на розмові були Трамп, Хегсет, сам Редкліфф та начальник Об’єднаного комітету начальників штабів Ден Кейн. От це дійсно дуже цікаво, що саме вони могли обговорювати. І ще цікавіше — навіщо Редкліфф перед цим цілий день провів у Ризі, що він там робив і з ким спілкувався. Точно не туристом прилітав.

    Не дуже розумію, чому Україна так зациклилася саме на Starlink у питанні використання на території росії, якщо є Eutelsat OneWeb найближчий реальний і дієвий аналог Starlink. Це європейська, франко-британська супутникова компанія, яка має близько 630 низькоорбітальних супутників. По суті, та сама архітектура, що й у SpaceX тільки менша кількість, але нас цікавить не така велика площа покриття і ціль у нас знищення СПУ в сусідніх областях. Тим більше, що OneWeb уже представлений в Україні, і навесні 2025 року називалася цифра в одну-дві тисячі терміналів, які вже є на території України й працюють. Чому не пропрацювати це питання з європейською компанією?

    Ми з вами живемо в тому самому таймлайні, де знищенням/ураження стратегічного бомбардувальника уже мало кого здивуєш. А раніше ми раділи, як радянський «Стриж» долітав до якоїсь нафтобази і щось там вражав. І потім ще тиждень бігали й раділи з цього. Ох, часи. Ох, нрави.

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 252 interactions against 84K followers, an engagement rate of 0.302%. Measured over 47 original posts, its engagement rate beats 69% of 6,494 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 7.4K times each, and 3.39% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 8.90% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2.3 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 37% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 12:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 47 posts sampled, 51% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 2.5K interactions, about 9.8x its own typical post.

What is MACHIAVELLIST's engagement rate on X?
MACHIAVELLIST (@PulseOfUkraine) has an engagement rate of 0.302%, based on the median interactions across 47 original posts from the last 30 days against 83,540 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.302%, MACHIAVELLIST sits above the 50th percentile of the 65,864 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 @PulseOfUkraine have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 69% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (6,494 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 @PulseOfUkraine post?
Most posts go out around 12:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day, at roughly 2.3 posts per day across the measured window.
