A typical post picks up 1.4K interactions against 1.9M followers, an engagement rate of 0.074%. Measured over 44 original posts, its engagement rate beats 80% of 3,809 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 30K times each, and 4.74% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.57% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2.9 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on almost every day in the window. Most posts go out around 16:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 44 posts sampled, 89% carry an image or video, 23% are part of a thread and 11% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 118K interactions, about 82x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #newmusic, #scoobydoo, #supernaturaledit.

Compared with accounts its own size

tumblr's engagement rate beats 80% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,809 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 95% 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 0.074%, tumblr sits above the 25th percentile of the 36,852 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 36,852 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 106,564 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.
