A typical post picks up 1.1K interactions against 27M followers, an engagement rate of 0.004%. Measured over 8 original posts, its engagement rate beats 23% of 21,624 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. Posts are seen about 832K times each, and 0.137% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.03% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline.

Measured over 8 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on October 30, 2026.
