Engagement
Early reading. We have captured 3 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 108 interactions against 308K followers, an engagement rate of 0.035%. Posts are seen about 26K times each, and 0.41% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 8.56% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.4 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 30% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 18:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 3 posts sampled, 33% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 11K interactions, about 100x its own typical post. Only 3 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 18:00 UTC, and Monday 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 | 33% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 0% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | -3% | -3% to -2% | 54K |
- 33% 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.
- 0% 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 124 characters, which falls in the 80 - 180 characters band. Across the catalog, posts of 80 to 180 characters run 3% below 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.

Yusuf Cassim has in the last 4 hours been called: A terrorist A foreigner A suicide bomber A member of Boko Haram, Al Qaeda, Hamas A spaza shop owner An implementer of Sharia Law A Pakistani His background: Born in Uitenhage, parents are South African Indians. Studied at NMU, became a member of the SRC, youngest member of parliament in 2014. His crime? Wearing Islamic attire. The fact that in an ethnically and religiously diverse country like ours we have people who cannot identify their own local groups within communities. We are slowly becoming a fascist, far-right nation completely ignorant of history. You have to laugh at the hypocrisy.

I hate it when people have money but don't respect other people's jobs. Having money doesn't give anyone the right to look down on others. Every honest job deserves respect. https://t.co/52wwOcIZee
