The Witcher engagement report
@thewitcher - 1.5M followers on X
Measured over 40 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on August 31, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 2.6K interactions against 1.5M followers, an engagement rate of 0.173%. Measured over 40 original posts, its engagement rate beats 90% of 3,862 tracked accounts of a similar size. Comparing inside a size band matters here: engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly just re-measure the follower count. Posts are seen about 96K times each, and 2.73% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 6.35% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.8 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 60% of days. Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 40 posts sampled, 98% carry an image or video, 20% are part of a thread and 35% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 193K interactions, about 74x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #gamescom, #fanartfriday, #redstreams.

Compared with accounts its own size
The Witcher's engagement rate beats 90% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,862 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 84% 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 0.173%, The Witcher sits above the 50th percentile of the 37,582 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the above the median band, which runs 0.081% to 0.439%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 14:00 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.

- What is The Witcher's engagement rate on X?
- The Witcher (@thewitcher) has an engagement rate of 0.173%, based on the median interactions across 40 original posts from the last 30 days against 1,505,222 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.173%, The Witcher sits above the 50th percentile of the 37,582 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 @thewitcher have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 90% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,862 accounts), which puts it in the top 10% for its size 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 @thewitcher post?
- Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.8 posts per day across the measured window.
