A typical post picks up 29 interactions against 1.3M followers, an engagement rate of 0.002%. Measured over 190 original posts, its engagement rate beats 19% of 3,739 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 12K times each, and 0.232% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.971% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 8.5 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 37% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 09:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 190 posts sampled, 100% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 11K interactions, about 369x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #ニュースの現場から, #mediatalk, #こどもそうだんしつ.

Compared with accounts its own size

朝日新聞(asahi shimbun)'s engagement rate beats 19% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,739 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 18% 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.

Where this sits in the catalog

At 0.002%, 朝日新聞(asahi shimbun) sits above the 10th percentile of the 36,378 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.012%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 36,378 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 107,364 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

What is 朝日新聞(asahi shimbun)'s engagement rate on X?
朝日新聞(asahi shimbun) (@asahi) has an engagement rate of 0.002%, based on the median interactions across 190 original posts from the last 30 days against 1,286,281 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.002%, 朝日新聞(asahi shimbun) sits above the 10th percentile of the 36,378 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 @asahi have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 19% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,739 accounts), which puts it in the bottom quarter for its size 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 @asahi post?
Most posts go out around 09:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day, at roughly 8.5 posts per day across the measured window.
