Engagement
A typical post picks up 372 interactions against 366K followers, an engagement rate of 0.102%. Measured over 10 original posts, its engagement rate beats 53% of 4,346 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 48K times each, and 0.772% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 13.2% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.7 post a day over the last 30 days, though only 23% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 08:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 10 posts sampled, 80% carry an image or video, 40% are part of a thread and 10% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 54K interactions, about 144x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Faisal Islam's engagement rate beats 53% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (4,346 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 6 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 35% 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 0.102%, Faisal Islam sits above the 50th percentile of the 42,087 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the above the median band, which runs 0.084% to 0.449%.

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

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 histórico del pueblo argentino que al día de hoy sigue viendo violentada su soberanía nacional, y las MIERDAS HUMANAS (95%) de siempre salen a llorar por el uso de la cadena nacional. ¿Qué causa más importante y estratégica para los intereses vitales de la Nación puede haber más importante que la causa Malvinas? ¿Si este tema, que desconocen absolutamente, no amerita una cadena nacional, que tema lo ameritaría? O será que simplemente hay un conjunto de MIERDAS HUMANAS (95%) que van a atacar al gobierno incluso si implica defender intereses extranjeros? Vergüenza les debería dar. Nosotros seguiremos defendiendo los intereses de la Nación Argentina con uñas y dientes pese a quien le pese. VIVA LA LIBERTAD CARAJO...!!!

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.

PM on social care …pretty clear in conclusion “I’m not going to be deflected by point scoring or the screaming headlines, that is what has set back social care… come back to the point about the political and media culture of this country ..if we try to shut down a serious debate about an issue like this then shame on all of us… I would never forgive myself if I left without having tried because of the inevitable headlines and scare stories… people are already scared by what they are seeing through their own eyes in their own homes or in care homes”… Burnham says that he will back Louise Casey 100% whose report is now brought forward a year… says he’ll do it for his Dad and millions up and down the country, with a bit of a crack in his voice. He also stressed the need to have cross party consultations as far away from an election as possible. Appears clear that PM is focussing on the suggestions or depiction of social care options as being “death taxes”, especially in the wider media, and he feels he can win that argument, which in turn rather suggests that estate taxes are a clear direction of travel here…

- What is Faisal Islam's engagement rate on X?
- Faisal Islam (@faisalislam) has an engagement rate of 0.102%, based on the median interactions across 10 original posts from the last 30 days against 366,238 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.102%, Faisal Islam sits above the 50th percentile of the 42,087 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 53% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (4,346 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 08:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day, at roughly 0.7 posts per day across the measured window.
