A typical post picks up 382 interactions against 641K followers, an engagement rate of 0.06%. Measured over 31 original posts, its engagement rate beats 62% 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 20K times each, and 1.95% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.06% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 50% of days. Most posts go out around 07:00 UTC, and Saturday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 31 posts sampled, 71% carry an image or video, 6% are part of a thread and 26% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 60K interactions, about 158x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #rsavnzl, #rugbysgreatestrivalry, #ssrugby.

Compared with accounts its own size

VT's engagement rate beats 62% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 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 66% 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 0.06%, VT sits above the 25th percentile of the 205,676 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 205,676 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,897 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 07:00 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.

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: 07:00 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

  • 71% 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.
  • 26% 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 260 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.

    i've been watching my brother teach himself electrical and mechanical engineering so he can build a device that automatically detects deer and sprays them with water when they are in his yard. He has no engineering or math background at all. It's just driven by the hatred

    Matlhomola Moshoeu was a 16 year old black boy killed after being accused of stealing sunflowers worth R80, about five U.S. dollars. Two white farmers, Pieter Doorewaard and Phillip Schutte, pushed him from a moving van, causing fatal neck injuries. He died on 20 April 2017. They claimed he jumped. The court rejected that. Both were convicted of murder, kidnapping, intimidation, theft and pointing a firearm. The judge called their actions towards Moshoeu DISGRACEFUL and said his death had a DEVASTATING EFFECT on his family and polarised the Coligny community. That is the story being erased when crosses representing fake "White Genocide" are planted in Washington.

    2026 was the year we realised: There are many people, political agendas, and interests that are desperately invested in South Africa failing. In fact, some are actively working to try and bring it about. South Africans must be careful that our internal issues are not exploited by lemigodoyi.

    NEW: The US is pushing legislation that would force the Netherlands to ban all remaining ASML lithography machine sales and servicing to China, with a 150-day compliance deadline backed by the threat of extraterritorial sanctions. The MATCH Act targets older DUV machines still permitted under Dutch rules. China was 33% of ASML's sales in 2025. The bill has bipartisan support and is being attached to the must-pass defense budget. The Dutch trade minister called forced cooperation "undesirable" and has lobbied Washington against the measure, but Dutch sources assess chances of blocking it as slim. ASML is Europe's most valuable listed company and relies heavily on US suppliers, limiting its room to push back. Source: NL Times

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 382 interactions against 641K followers, an engagement rate of 0.06%. Measured over 31 original posts, its engagement rate beats 62% 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 20K times each, and 1.95% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.06% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 50% of days. Most posts go out around 07:00 UTC, and Saturday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 31 posts sampled, 71% carry an image or video, 6% are part of a thread and 26% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 60K interactions, about 158x its own typical post.

What is VT's engagement rate on X?
VT (@VusiThembekwayo) has an engagement rate of 0.06%, based on the median interactions across 31 original posts from the last 30 days against 640,576 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.06%, VT sits above the 25th percentile of the 205,676 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 @VusiThembekwayo have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 62% 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 @VusiThembekwayo post?
Most posts go out around 07:00 UTC, and Saturday is its busiest day, at roughly 3 posts per day across the measured window.
