Douglas Macgregor engagement report
@DougAMacgregor - 687K followers on X
Measured over 58 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on September 1, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 1.1K interactions against 687K followers, an engagement rate of 0.157%. Measured over 58 original posts, its engagement rate beats 77% of 3,862 tracked accounts of a similar size. Comparing inside a size band matters here: engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly just re-measure the follower count. Posts are seen about 86K times each, and 1.24% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 12.6% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.4 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 77% of days. Most posts go out around 00:00 UTC, and Friday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 58 posts sampled, 36% carry an image or video and 33% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 24K interactions, about 23x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Douglas Macgregor's engagement rate beats 77% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,862 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 8 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 58% 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 00:00 UTC, and Friday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked.
