Engagement
Early reading. We have captured 7 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 326 interactions against 423K followers, an engagement rate of 0.077%. Posts are seen about 17K times each, and 1.96% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.92% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.37 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 17% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 7 posts sampled, 43% carry an image or video and 14% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 179K interactions, about 548x its own typical post. Only 7 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.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 13:00 UTC, and Tuesday 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.

As I have reported several times and now acknowledged by the Governor of California...Gavin and his wife are under federal investigation... what he failed to tell you... This began during the Biden Admin. Kind of a big detail.

Ever since USAID was defunded and thousands of NGO contracts were cancelled, left wing parties are losing in Central and South America.

This is grief. The very sight of Elmo and Cookie Monster on air today made me start crying. Elmo then wiping away my tears. I have no idea why that happened at that moment. The sudden sorrow and jarring sense of loss come out of nowhere. https://t.co/q0xDr3md5Z

One of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen: a standing ovation for the full Daraxonrasib results I feel inspired and energised, to put it mildly — we have a targeted therapy for pancreatic cancer now, and nothing is undruggable anymore https://t.co/D0qDtnMJb7
