Early reading. We have captured 4 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 42 interactions against 470K followers, an engagement rate of 0.009%. Posts are seen about 26K times each, and 0.166% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 5.44% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.27 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 23% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 4 posts sampled, 100% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 156K interactions, about 3722x its own typical post. Only 4 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 37,856 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 97,248 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 15:00 UTC, and Wednesday 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.

    Just now... sources in the White House as well as Congressional members tell me and @G_Knapp that the Presidential UFO file release will begin tomorrow. We are told it will be slow and steady at first. Nothing shocking initially. Let's see where this goes! This is VERY encouraging - that this administration is following through. More data means more leverage for those of us fighting for UAP transparency. SLEEPING DOG exists because our government chose silence over transparency - that might be changing. https://t.co/k6QZirwsVc

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 42 interactions against 470K followers, an engagement rate of 0.009%. Posts are seen about 26K times each, and 0.166% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 5.44% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.27 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 23% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 4 posts sampled, 100% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 156K interactions, about 3722x its own typical post. Only 4 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.
