Engagement
A typical post picks up 776 interactions against 1.7M followers, an engagement rate of 0.045%. Measured over 262 original posts, its engagement rate beats 72% of 3,716 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 48K times each, and 1.62% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 2.80% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 11.2 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 53% of days. Most posts go out around 18:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 262 posts sampled, 98% carry an image or video and 44% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 62K interactions, about 80x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Defiant L’s's engagement rate beats 72% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,716 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 70% 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.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 18:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked.

🚨#BREAKING: A man who was driving home from work, found an elderly woman was FACE DOWN in the middle of the road in a puddle.. ...he pulled over, sprinted to her and helped her get up and likely saved her life The man's name is Ryan Carter. He was driving home from work in Martin County, Florida, when he saw something in the road that didn't look right. It was an elderly woman. She'd hit a water-filled pothole with her walker and gone down face-first into it. She was still strapped into the seat of her rolling walker. Face down. In the water. Nobody else had stopped. Ryan had recently taken a class on Florida's Good Samaritan law. So before he touched her, he started recording on his glasses. Not for clout. To protect her, and to protect himself, so he could help her the right way. Then he got down next to her and asked what she needed. She couldn't move… and she still didn't want to be a burden to anybody. 💔 So he stayed calm, talked her through it, counted her down, and lifted her out from under her arms. He got her seated. He pushed her away from the hole. Then he told her he was going to get her a cup of water. He drove her home himself. Then he CALLED HER LATER to make sure she was okay. "I saw somebody in a desperate situation, and I just wanted to be the hand that she could depend on." When he got home, he mentioned it to his wife like it was nothing. She watched the footage and realized he hadn't just helped that woman... he may have saved her life. GOD BLESS THIS RYAN CARTER, THIS IS THE AMERICA I KNOW!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Bill Maher: “Trump is so mad at Canada, he renamed Lake Ontario Lake America… Liberals are very pissed at this. They say you can’t just go around renaming to suit your political agenda. Just ask any Latinx birthing person.” 🤣 https://t.co/BLpgvoWe3z Not only that, which is by far the most ridiculous thing, they have also renamed brands, sport teams, buildings to suit their agenda but they are mad at Lake America

🚨 IT'S OFFICIAL: The Democratic Socialists of America announces their platform is to OVERTHROW the US Constitution This is terrifying. VOTE RED AT ALL COSTS. He straight-up says it: "The [thing] we're famous for is [our] hatred of the United States Constitution...the program gives us a roadmap to revolution, the obstacle that we finally will have to get over to have a revolution — which is the US Constitution." 🤯🤯

NEW: Mother breaks down in court as she watches her son’s father abuse her child by making him run on the treadmill because he was “too fat.” New Jersey father Christopher Gregor is accused of killing his 6-year-old son Corey Micciolo. New footage shows the boy repeatedly face planting as Gregor forces him to run on a treadmill that was moving too fast. The father was allegedly biting him in the head as he forced him to run. Shortly after the incident, Corey was rushed to the doctor because he was slurring his words and stumbling. During a CT scan, Corey had a seizure and died. The autopsy report says he died from “blunt force injuries with cardiac and liver contusions with acute inflammation and sepsis.” (NYP) Gregor is facing life in prison.

- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.045%, Defiant L’s sits above the 25th percentile of the 36,134 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
- Does @DefiantLs have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 72% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,716 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
- When does @DefiantLs post?
- Most posts go out around 18:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day, at roughly 11.2 posts per day across the measured window.
