A typical post picks up 1.2K interactions against 862K followers, an engagement rate of 0.142%. Measured over 46 original posts, its engagement rate beats 78% of 3,917 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 59K times each, and 2.08% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 6.82% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 5 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 57% of days. Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Friday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 46 posts sampled, 46% carry an image or video, 13% are part of a thread and 9% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 20K interactions, about 17x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

Jesse Kelly's engagement rate beats 78% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,917 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 9 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 71% 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.

At 0.142%, Jesse Kelly sits above the 50th percentile of the 37,856 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the above the median band, which runs 0.081% to 0.439%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 37,856 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 97,248 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

    I have never in my life see such pushback against the H1-B insanity that is plaguing us. This is a very good thing. Keep up the pressure.

    Americans are really underestimating the level of anger at them, here in Canada. It has turbocharged anti-American sentiment, and it's becoming more permanent by the minute.

    In sixth grade I accidentally loudly farted and in a panic tried to pin it on my best friend who was sitting next to me. But no one remotely bought it, so not only was I some slob who couldnt control his farts but a traitor on top of it. Major foreshadowing for the years to come
