Engagement
A typical post picks up 392 interactions against 585K followers, an engagement rate of 0.067%. Measured over 8 original posts, its engagement rate beats 63% of 3,917 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 40K times each, and 0.979% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 6.85% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.97 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 53% of days. Most posts go out around 08:00 UTC, and Friday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 8 posts sampled, 88% carry an image or video and 75% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 30K interactions, about 77x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Jonathan Pie's engagement rate beats 63% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,917 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 52% 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 Friday 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.

Keir Starmer: "I did a fantastic job during my time as Prime Minister." 30 minutes later. Andy Burnham: "Keir Starmer was shit and he did next to fuck all." I mean, I'm paraphrasing here, but that was the general gist of it.

- What is Jonathan Pie's engagement rate on X?
- Jonathan Pie (@JonathanPieNews) has an engagement rate of 0.067%, based on the median interactions across 8 original posts from the last 30 days against 584,622 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.067%, Jonathan Pie sits above the 25th percentile of the 37,856 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 @JonathanPieNews have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 63% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,917 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 @JonathanPieNews post?
- Most posts go out around 08:00 UTC, and Friday is its busiest day, at roughly 0.97 posts per day across the measured window.
