Posting timing
This account posts most often around 06:00 UTC, and Monday 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 | 100% of posts | +79% | +73% to +85% | 5.8K |
| Outbound link | 27% of posts | -49% | -50% to -47% | 6.1K |
| Typical length | - | +13% | +10% to +15% | 6.4K |
- 100% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 79% above the same accounts' other posts.
- 27% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 49% below the same accounts' other posts.
- Its average post runs 298 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 13% 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.

Humanitarians go the extra mile. Sometimes across mountains, into the most remote communities to ensure no one is left behind. When people cannot reach healthcare, mobile health teams in Afghanistan bring healthcare to them. Watch how they save lives every day. #ActForHumanity https://t.co/ENXC9o9lkV

Aid workers are being killed at record levels. "This is a stain. It's the normalization of violence against our community and we will not accept it." Concern is not enough. What we need is concrete action. @UNReliefChief's #WorldHumanitarianDay remarks: https://t.co/UNH0gGnd3c https://t.co/vbz48sFMXN

So far this year, at least 8 aid workers have been killed in #Gaza. 185 were killed in 2025. Statements of concern do not protect aid workers. All parties to conflict must uphold international humanitarian law. Those who break the rules must be held to account. #ActForHumanity https://t.co/BOydlKpkBt

15 emergency and humanitarian workers were killed by Israeli forces at Tal As Sultan, Gaza, in March 2025. Eight were Palestine Red Crescent paramedics. Ashraf remembers the colleagues he lost, not as numbers, but as brothers, and people who were deeply loved. #ActForHumanity https://t.co/PCZ5YgMNIS

A 7.4-magnitude earthquake and 29 significant aftershocks have triggered a large-scale humanitarian emergency in Colombia. Across affected areas, people are in urgent need of shelter, safe water, food, healthcare and protection. The response continues: https://t.co/WBLPTDkFlk https://t.co/5wxoVDqFZM

📍One week after the earthquake struck Chocó, Colombia, the humanitarian response remains in full force. Led by local authorities, UN and partners continue to mobilize resources to reach affected communities. Coordination is key to ensuring aid reaches those most in need. https://t.co/vq16I5PkBk

🚨 Another grim record for humanitarians. More than 1,100 aid workers were killed, wounded, kidnapped, detained or arrested in 2025. Breaking the rules of war must have real consequences. Those responsible must be held accountable. https://t.co/JWWBpkQ4yO #ActForHumanity https://t.co/5MEMnKkmuj

Flags flew at half-mast across UN offices worldwide for #WorldHumanitarianDay. We remember aid workers killed while helping others. And we stand with those who continue to serve despite the danger. Attacks on humanitarians must end. Those responsible must be held accountable. https://t.co/UCx4he3qfj

Isra Al-Habash was an aid worker with @SYRedCrescent. In May 2015, she was killed in an airstrike in #Syria while coordinating an aid delivery during a ceasefire. Helping others should never have cost her life. Respect the rules of war. Protect humanitarians. #ActForHumanity https://t.co/v1kGmdjqYC

Humanity is capable of extraordinary things. So why can’t we ensure humanitarians reach people in need safely? When aid workers are attacked or blocked, people in crisis pay the price. Protect humanitarians. Ensure safe access. Demand accountability. #ActForHumanity https://t.co/UrjZeZxW5Q
