Engagement
A typical post picks up 140 interactions against 366K followers, an engagement rate of 0.038%. Measured over 30 original posts, its engagement rate beats 55% of 19,932 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 26K times each, and 0.548% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 7.01% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.7 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 70% of days. Most posts go out around 11:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 30 posts sampled, 50% carry an image or video, 30% are part of a thread and 10% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 81K interactions, about 578x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Faisal Islam's engagement rate beats 55% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (19,932 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 33% 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.

At 0.038%, Faisal Islam sits above the 25th percentile of the 201,555 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.024% to 0.142%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 11:00 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 | 50% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 10% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | +15% | +14% to +16% | 32K |
- 50% 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.
- 10% 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 406 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.

DE NO CREER Anunciamos una cadena nacional para el jueves a las 21:00 hs. sobre un tema SAGRADO para los argentinos como es la causa de Malvinas, un reclamo histĆ³rico del pueblo argentino que al dĆa de hoy sigue viendo violentada su soberanĆa nacional, y las MIERDAS HUMANAS (95%) de siempre salen a llorar por el uso de la cadena nacional. ĀæQuĆ© causa mĆ”s importante y estratĆ©gica para los intereses vitales de la NaciĆ³n puede haber mĆ”s importante que la causa Malvinas?

O serĆ” que simplemente hay un conjunto de MIERDAS HUMANAS (95%) que van a atacar al gobierno incluso si implica defender intereses extranjeros? VergĆ¼enza les deberĆa dar.

Today we announce Thrive Eternal, a permanent capital holding company that will be concentrated in a small number of assets that we can own and steward over many decades. Across Thrive Capital and Thrive Holdings, we are building and investing through a moment of exponential change; backing emerging technologies, the infrastructure that powers them, and the businesses they can transform. Increasingly, we see a fourth category. These are assets with qualities that cannot be replicated by technology. Iconic franchises and cultural institutions rooted in tradition, identity, and shared experience. In a world shaped by abundant intelligence where creation scales and distribution fragments, we believe they will matter even more. Thrive Eternal is built on the belief that the most enduring of these assets share common characteristics: they benefit from long-term stewardship, they compound through cultural resonance, and they are enhanced by technology rather than displaced by it. Our work at Thrive has always been informed and inspired by a deep appreciation for product, brand, and the ways in which consumers form lasting relationships with the things they love. We have been building towards this for a long time. Our first partnership is expected to be with the San Francisco Giants - an institution built on more than a century of shared identity and community, and among the most iconic sports franchises in America. We have reached an agreement, subject to league approval, to acquire an ownership stake. We feel privileged by the opportunity to be long-term partners to the Giants.

UK Q2 GDP growth revised up to 0.5% by ONS. So top growth in G7 in q1, second in q2 to Canada, overall fastest growth of g7 economies so far in 2026. GDP per capita also revised up to 0.5% growth. Definitely defying the suggestion that the Iran war would hit UK hardest.

- What is Faisal Islam's engagement rate on X?
- Faisal Islam (@faisalislam) has an engagement rate of 0.038%, based on the median interactions across 30 original posts from the last 30 days against 365,855 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.038%, Faisal Islam sits above the 25th percentile of the 201,555 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 @faisalislam have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 55% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (19,932 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 @faisalislam post?
- Most posts go out around 11:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.73 posts per day across the measured window.
