Measured over 11 original posts, its engagement rate beats 95% of 3,774 tracked accounts of a similar size.

Posts are seen about 127K times each, and 4.26% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 7.32% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline.

Measured over 11 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on September 1, 2026.
