Early reading. We have captured 2 original posts 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 382 interactions against 358K followers, an engagement rate of 0.106%. Posts are seen about 85K times each, and 0.45% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 23.7% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.13 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 13% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 2 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 34K interactions, about 89x its own typical post. Only 2 original posts 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 41,569 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 89,905 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.
