Engagement
A typical post picks up 1.1K interactions against 383K followers, an engagement rate of 0.299%. Measured over 23 original posts, its engagement rate beats 72% of 3,882 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 25K times each, and 4.58% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 6.54% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.1 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 60% of days. Most posts go out around 08:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 23 posts sampled, 39% carry an image or video and 61% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 7.7K interactions, about 6.7x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Double Down News's engagement rate beats 72% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,882 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 6 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 85% 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 08:00 UTC, and Sunday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

“Hitler was a socialist like North Korea is democratic. Whilst Hitler was alive I don’t think anybody referred to him as left wing. Why did that change and how?

"The main cause of antisemitism in the world today is the fact that the Israeli state claims to represent all Jews and is committing a genocide in Gaza, in the name of all Jews. Israel has the Star of David on its tanks and planes whilst it is killing women and children in Gaza, it’s stirring up antisemitism all the time. If Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis wants to significantly reduce antisemitism, he should make it clear that Jewish people do not support the atrocities and massacres in Gaza and the West Bank. The fact that he and leaders in the Jewish community don’t even dream of doing that, suggests that their main concern is to defend the Israeli government, not to defend and protect Jewish people in this country."

30 years in prison for moving a box of pamphlets. 100 years for a former Marine. 450 years total for 8 activists. This is what happens when protesting state policy gets you branded a domestic terrorist. @LornaHosford reports on the chilling Prairieland sentences 👇 https://t.co/Yy0l9FnsHB

A typical post picks up 1.1K interactions against 383K followers, an engagement rate of 0.299%. Measured over 23 original posts, its engagement rate beats 72% of 3,882 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 25K times each, and 4.58% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 6.54% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.1 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 60% of days. Most posts go out around 08:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week.

- What is Double Down News's engagement rate on X?
- Double Down News (@DoubleDownNews) has an engagement rate of 0.299%, based on the median interactions across 23 original posts from the last 30 days against 382,859 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.299%, Double Down News sits above the 50th percentile of the 37,701 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 @DoubleDownNews have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 72% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,882 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 @DoubleDownNews post?
- Most posts go out around 08:00 UTC, and Sunday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.13 posts per day across the measured window.
