Measured over 40 original posts, its engagement rate beats 40% of 3,791 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 35K times each, and 0.427% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.33% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2.1 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 77% of days. Most posts go out around 17:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 40 posts sampled, 45% carry an image or video and 20% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 37K interactions, about 244x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

Larry Hryb, Gamer Emeritus 📱⌨️🖱️🎮's engagement rate beats 40% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,791 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 9 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 30% 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 0.014%, Larry Hryb, Gamer Emeritus 📱⌨️🖱️🎮 sits above the 25th percentile of the 36,759 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.012% to 0.08%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 36,759 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 106,964 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

    Well before there were slick social media unboxings, I used to do videos like this to show off our new products. No gimmicks. Simple. Straight to the point. I used to record them at lunch time when the office was empty. This is the raw single take in SD. No editing. No fancy lights or high-end cameras & mics. Straight to camera. https://t.co/vlvUboJ8Ou

    I have an Xbox Series S on my desktop with a @UPspecGaming xScreen (which I love) and after having for a few years, I JUST now noticed this nice note on the bottom (R) that sit neatly next to the one from the Xbox hardware team (L) when you connect the two.

    It was great to join @XBOX at @gamescom this year. I think that is my 20th show and it gets better each year. If you are headed to the show this weekend, sorry I will miss you - but stop by the Xbox booth and let me know what you think. Time for me to attack this jet lag.💤🛌

Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.014%, Larry Hryb, Gamer Emeritus 📱⌨️🖱️🎮 sits above the 25th percentile of the 36,759 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 @majornelson have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 40% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,791 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.

When does @majornelson post?
Most posts go out around 17:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day, at roughly 2.1 posts per day across the measured window.
