A typical post picks up 198 interactions against 198K followers, an engagement rate of 0.1%. Measured over 58 original posts, its engagement rate beats 59% 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 11K times each, and 1.82% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 5.49% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.8 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 43% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 11:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 58 posts sampled, 88% carry an image or video, 7% are part of a thread and 17% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 9.8K interactions, about 49x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #rsf, #sudan, #السودان.

Compared with accounts its own size

Thomas van Linge's engagement rate beats 59% 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 60% 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 0.1%, Thomas van Linge sits above the 25th percentile of the 204,798 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.024% to 0.143%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 204,798 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,879 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 11:00 UTC, and Thursday 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.

Engagement by hour posted, UTCTwenty-four bars, one per UTC hour. Each bar shows how posts published in that hour compare with their own authors' median engagement. Bars above the centre line ran higher than the median, bars below ran lower. A marker flags Busiest hour: 11:00 UTC.

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 video88% of posts+111%+108% to +115%34K

  • 88% 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.
  • 17% 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 269 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.

    In my meeting with @DinorahFiguera, I reaffirmed our unwavering support for her and her team at the highest levels of our government. The Venezuelan people have the opportunity for a peaceful transition to a stable, prosperous, and enduring democracy that will secure freedom for generations to come.

    IK KIES VOOR VREDE. Keer op keer horen we dat er te weinig geld is voor zorg, sociale zekerheid en betaalbare woningen. Tegelijk gaan er miljarden extra naar oorlog, militarisering en de NAVO. Generaties werkende mensen hebben onze zorg, sociale zekerheid en volkshuisvesting opgebouwd. Laten we die welvaartsstaat niet inruilen voor een oorlogseconomie. Wij kunnen een andere keuze maken. Voor zorg. Voor zekerheid. Voor betaalbaar wonen. Voor vrede. Daarom komen we zondag 27 september in actie tijdens het Nationaal Vredesprotest op de Dam in Amsterdam. Kom ook. Kies voor vrede.

    Al-Qaeda apologism in the west in the name of anti-imperialism is funny because the most amount of victims from Islamic terrorism is not people from the west, it's people from the middle east, north africa, south and east asia, espcially poor countries prone to sectarian violence

    Serbia 🇷🇸: major protest in front of the Electoral Commission in Belgrade tonight, after it decided that all voting (including abroad) has to be done in accordance with Serbian local time. Many people consider this a suppression of diaspora votes as it makes it very inconvenient in places such as the US or Australia to vote on time.

What is Thomas van Linge's engagement rate on X?
Thomas van Linge (@ThomasVLinge) has an engagement rate of 0.1%, based on the median interactions across 58 original posts from the last 30 days against 197,876 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.1%, Thomas van Linge sits above the 25th percentile of the 204,798 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 @ThomasVLinge have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 59% 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 @ThomasVLinge post?
Most posts go out around 11:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day, at roughly 3.8 posts per day across the measured window.
