Engagement
A typical post picks up 214 interactions against 1.2M followers, an engagement rate of 0.018%. Measured over 54 original posts, its engagement rate beats 42% 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 17K times each, and 1.29% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.36% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 57% of days. Most posts go out around 08:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 54 posts sampled, 54% carry an image or video and 28% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 11K interactions, about 51x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #euco, #eplenary, #tourdescapitales.

Compared with accounts its own size
António Costa's engagement rate beats 42% 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 55% 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 0.018%, António Costa sits above the 10th percentile of the 204,583 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.024%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 08:00 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.

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 | 54% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 28% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | +15% | +14% to +16% | 32K |
- 54% 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.
- 28% 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 384 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 15% 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.

I express my solidarity with Spain in the current situation of illegal migration in Ceuta. While third-country nationals in Ceuta do not enjoy free movement to mainland Spain or the rest of the Schengen area, Spain’s firm response, including ongoing accelerated returns, demonstrates our determination to protect our external borders, combat illegal migration, and dismantle criminal smuggling networks. I welcome Spain’s close cooperation with Morocco in addressing this shared challenge and ensuring swift returns. We will remain in close contact with the Spanish authorities in the coming days.

Excelente reunión con @sanchezcastejon en Madrid durante mi ronda de capitales 🇪🇸 . Europa necesita economías fuertes, como la española, para reforzar su autonomía estratégica. El próximo presupuesto europeo debe servir para reforzar nuestra competitividad, al tiempo que refleja nuestra firme apuesta por la defensa y la seguridad, sin descuidar la política agrícola y de cohesión. El tiempo apremia. Debemos llegar a un acuerdo a finales de año. En nuestra reunión, he reiterado la plena solidaridad de la UE con España y en particular la población de Ceuta ante la crisis excepcional que atraviesa. Lo sucedido nos recuerda una vez más que las fronteras de Europa solo serán seguras si todas nuestras fronteras lo son. ¡Un placer, como siempre, visitar Madrid! #TourdesCapitales

We deeply regret the ratification today by the Libyan Parliament of the so-called Libyan-Türkiye Memorandum of Understanding on the delimitation of maritime jurisdictions in the Mediterranean Sea. We recall that the EU’s position on this matter was clearly stated by the European Council in 2019 and remains unchanged. This agreement infringes upon the sovereign rights of third states, it does not comply with the Law of the Sea, and is null and void. We reaffirm our solidarity with Greece and Cyprus. We reiterate the EU's well known position against any outside interference in Libya.

President @vonderleyen and I stand firmly with the @IntlCrimCourt, President Tomoko Akane and the officials who uphold its mission. The ICC helps deliver justice to the victims of some of the world’s most horrific crimes. To carry out this essential work, its judges and officials must be able to act independently and without external pressure.

The images from Ratko Mladić’s funeral yesterday in Belgrade were shocking. Ratko Mladić was a convicted war criminal. He was responsible for genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity. He died while serving a life sentence for the Srebrenica genocide and other crimes. The elements of official support and the presence of some senior Serbian officials at the funeral are deeply regrettable. They demonstrate a failure to confront a dark chapter in Europe’s recent history and contradict the values underpinning Serbia’s path towards the European Union. Our thoughts are with all the victims of the crimes committed in the countries of former Yugoslavia.

International justice must be defended. There cannot be lasting peace without accountability. The EU deeply regrets the decision of the United States to impose institutional sanctions on the International Criminal Court (ICC). We will carefully analyse the situation and take the appropriate steps to protect the Court. The US decision to delay the entry into force of its latest measures is an opportunity for dialogue. The EU will continue to support the ICC and the Rome Statute system through political, diplomatic, financial and practical means. @IntlCrimCourt

We condemn in the strongest possible terms Russia’s attempted drone attack at Leipzig Airport. Russia must stop its war of aggression against Ukraine, instead of escalating. The EU stands in full solidarity with Germany. The EU remains strong and united and Russia will not prevail. Our support to Ukraine is unwavering. We will work with Germany and other Member States to ramp up the pressure on Russia until it shows a willingness to change course.

While here in New York, it was a pleasure to meet Mayor @ZohranKMamdani and participate in the event ‘Building an Economy for the Many’. In an interdependent world, we need coordinated solutions to global and local challenges. We cannot build an economy that works for the many without peace and stability in the world. And we cannot build a more peaceful and stable world if our societies are divided and people feel left behind. That is why we must defend international law and multilateral institutions like the @UN. And that is why we must put the well-being of our citizens at the centre of our policies. https://t.co/4qoOyNDZrw

For the second time in 24 hours, Romanian airspace has been violated by drone incursions. I commend the Romanian authorities for their swift and effective response. We stand in full solidarity with Romania and its people. The security of Romania is the security of Europe. We will continue to strengthen the EU’s security, resilience and deterrence, including along our Eastern border.

Europe and Australia see the world in the same way. And this joint vision translates into concrete actions. Our Security & Defence partnership is fully at work. Our Free Trade Agreement: about to be signed next year. As of January, Australian researchers will be able to take part in Horizon Europe. And we are both taking strong action to protect young people online. This shows the strength of the 🇪🇺🇦🇺 partnership. Our joint press release: https://t.co/5lvxxXp6V3

- What is António Costa's engagement rate on X?
- António Costa (@eucopresident) has an engagement rate of 0.018%, based on the median interactions across 54 original posts from the last 30 days against 1,218,161 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.018%, António Costa sits above the 10th percentile of the 204,583 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 @eucopresident have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 42% 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 @eucopresident post?
- Most posts go out around 08:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day, at roughly 2.03 posts per day across the measured window.
