Measured over 240 original posts, its engagement rate beats 23% of 3,809 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own.

That is about 0.633% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline.
