Engagement
A typical post picks up 1.5K interactions against 3.9M followers, an engagement rate of 0.039%. Measured over 329 original posts, its engagement rate beats 55% 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 325K times each, and 0.459% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 8.42% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 14.9 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on almost every day in the window. Most posts go out around 20:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 329 posts sampled, 56% carry an image or video and 8% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 121K interactions, about 81x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #dkpartner, #gogogreys, #goblue.

Compared with accounts its own size
Dave Portnoy's engagement rate beats 55% 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 29% 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.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 20:00 UTC, and Sunday 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 | 56% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 8% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | -3% | -3% to -2% | 54K |
- 56% 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.
- 8% 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 108 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.

We had a crazy scene today at Barstool World Hq. An uber eats driver got in a fight with Gia in the hallway over her order. Our security guard Dan went into the hall to tell the guy to leave and he attacked him. Beat him up pretty good. @stoolsalesguy saved the day pulling him off. (Thankfully it was Gaz and not Mintzy who arrived 1st) Then the rest of the troops rushed in followed by Cody and Travy for the Boys to help out. Now what we got to pay very close attention to in the security footage we pulled is how @TomScibelli (in red) handled this explosive situation. Bravery like this can not go unnoticed. Totally secured and locked down the office. The police did show up and arrest the guy. Danny may need a few stiches and a couple beers. All in all another day at the Stool. Shoutout Mandami’s NYC

Today marks the 25th anniversary of 9/11. It’s kind of amazing to me how enemies both at home and abroad have tried to rationalize this terrorist attack. It’s insane to me we have politicians nowadays who literally side with the terrorists. We must never forget the sacrifice that so many made and we must never stop supporting our heroes. The United States may not be perfect but it is still the best country in the world and its not particularly close. 9/11 serves as a reminder that we must continually fight for our freedoms and way of life that we take for granted. I”m proud to have a very close relationship with @Tunnel2Towers which support all our countries heroes. We are selling Tunnel to Towers hats and tshirts and Im running in their 5k on the 27th in NYC. 100% of that proceeds will go to Tunnel to Towers and I’ll also match every dollar myself though the 27th. As always thank you for the support https://t.co/XZNyo3x01q

- What is Dave Portnoy's engagement rate on X?
- Dave Portnoy (@stoolpresidente) has an engagement rate of 0.039%, based on the median interactions across 329 original posts from the last 30 days against 3,863,136 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.039%, Dave Portnoy sits above the 25th percentile of the 204,491 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 @stoolpresidente have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 55% 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 @stoolpresidente post?
- Most posts go out around 20:00 UTC, and Sunday is its busiest day, at roughly 14.93 posts per day across the measured window.
