A typical post picks up 236 interactions against 236K followers, an engagement rate of 0.1%. Measured over 76 original posts, its engagement rate beats 59% 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 9.8K times each, and 2.41% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 4.14% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.1 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 67% of days. Most posts go out around 06:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 76 posts sampled, 5% carry an image or video and 28% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 1.4K interactions, about 6.0x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

The Sirius Report's engagement rate beats 59% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 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 68% 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 0.1%, The Sirius Report sits above the 25th percentile of the 204,880 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.024% to 0.143%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 204,880 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,891 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 06:00 UTC, and Thursday 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.

  • 5% 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.
  • 28% 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 266 characters, which falls in the 180 - 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts of 180 to 280 characters match the same accounts' other posts almost exactly.

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.

    Apparently it has come of a shock to some that Saudi is militarily a total and utter paper tiger. The vast bulk of nations are militarily paper tigers. They blow hot air and nothing else. Poland being a classic example.

    A big hint here. This has nothing to do with war. Apparently the UK government wants the public to prepare for major disruption to daily life. This includes stockpiling canned food and drinking water, strengthening civic resilience, and planning for the possibility of war.

    Please explain how exactly conscription in the West is going to be implemented when a future war with Russia will be over in 5 mins with Europe incinerated in totality and Moscow not even bothering to declare war. People continue to believe this ridiculous notion that Russia and Europe will fight a ground war offensive like Russia is with Ukraine. What happens when you listen to people who sound terribly knowledgeable but are actually clueless about such matters.

    Saudi is about to increase its trading of oil with China in Yuan. More importantly it will be in an official capacity.

    Moscow unsurprisingly has categorically refused to agree to any ceasefire with Ukraine. Negotiations will only been undertaken whilst the war continues. Currently the two parties are a million miles apart in their respective assessments as to how the war should end. The desperation of Ukraine and Europe is self-evident. They finally have to acknowledge that Russia has won the war. Now it is about damage limitation to save their own careers.

    It still seems poorly understood that the US went to war with Iran because they couldn't destroy them economically, after trying for 47 years. So now it looks like Trump is seeking to declare the war is over and the US is back to maximum economic sanctions once again. The paper tiger has exposed itself, once again.

    Washington finally got the message that China has 40k tons of gold. Although it is now 52k tons. I told them back in 2015 that this was the case. It often takes years for reality to permeate the grey matter of the Beltway.

    For more than four years, Berlin has treated direct engagement with Moscow as virtually unthinkable. Suddenly Germany requested a meeting with Lavrov. And what did Wadephul do in terms of this sudden diplomatic initiative? According to Lavrov, he simply read out Berlin's existing demands, apparently behaving as though agreeing to meet his Russian counterpart was itself a concession for which Moscow should be grateful. Which of course is ludicrous. The more revealing question is why Germany sought the meeting in the first place. After all Berlin had previously insisted there was no point talking to Lavrov without evidence that Russia was prepared to negotiate. Yet it has now reopened direct contact without any publicly acknowledged change in Moscow's position. The meeting comes amid mounting enormous pressure on Ukraine's military, economy and energy infrastructure and renewed efforts to secure a ceasefire. Berlin's initiative reflects a broader reassessment of Ukraine's prospects which are now dire. But there is a striking contradiction in seeking urgent diplomatic engagement while approaching the other side as though the mere privilege of a meeting should be enough to extract concessions. Four years of diplomatic isolation was followed by twenty minutes of the same demands and Wadephul seriously imagined that Moscow was going to change its tune and see this as a breakthrough. What an absolute farce.

    Please spread this far and wide because this is utter bullshit and anyone with a single rotating brain cell which functions as a brain should be able to see through this. U.S. intelligence services are claiming that Russia may be preparing a drone operation in the Mediterranean. There is less than a zero reason for them to do so.

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 236 interactions against 236K followers, an engagement rate of 0.1%. Measured over 76 original posts, its engagement rate beats 59% 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 9.8K times each, and 2.41% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 4.14% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.1 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 67% of days. Most posts go out around 06:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 76 posts sampled, 5% carry an image or video and 28% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 1.4K interactions, about 6.0x its own typical post.

What is The Sirius Report's engagement rate on X?
The Sirius Report (@thesiriusreport) has an engagement rate of 0.1%, based on the median interactions across 76 original posts from the last 30 days against 236,429 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.1%, The Sirius Report sits above the 25th percentile of the 204,880 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 @thesiriusreport have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 59% 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 @thesiriusreport post?
Most posts go out around 06:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day, at roughly 3.1 posts per day across the measured window.
