A typical post picks up 2 interactions against 65K followers, an engagement rate of 0.003%. Measured over 40 original posts, its engagement rate beats 8% of 21,398 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 1.4K times each, and 0.145% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 2.11% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline.

Measured over 40 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on September 22, 2026. Recurring tag: #rgv.
