A typical post picks up 129 interactions against 3.4M followers, an engagement rate of 0.004%. Posts are seen about 36K times each, and 0.353% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.09% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 22.1 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on almost every day in the window. Most posts go out around 20:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 664 posts sampled, 94% carry an image or video and 100% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 6.6K interactions, about 51x its own typical post.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 218,065 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 21,725 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 20:00 UTC, and Thursday 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.

Engagement by hour posted, UTCTwenty-four bars, one per UTC hour. Each bar shows how posts published in that hour compare with their own authors' median engagement. Bars above the centre line ran higher than the median, bars below ran lower. A marker flags Busiest hour: 20:00 UTC.

Formats this account uses

Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.

This account's posting mix compared with catalog-wide effects
FormatThis accountCatalog effect95% intervalAccounts behind it
Image or video94% of posts+111%+108% to +115%34K
Outbound link100% of posts-41%-42% to -40%32K

  • 94% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
  • 100% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts, so a large share of this account's output sits in the weakest bucket we measure.
  • Its average post runs 415 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 15% above the same accounts' other posts.

These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

    In 1963, the famous photographer Richard Avedon took a picture of a man named William Casby. William Casby, born in 1857, was 106 years old at the time. In his hands, he was holding his great-great-granddaughter, Cherri Stamps-McCray. The image amazes me because the elderly gentleman holding his descendant so tenderly, was born into slavery more than a century prior. Casby would eventually live until 1970, dying at the age of 113. His great- and great-grandchildren are alive today, and many of them remember him. It puts into perspective just how relatively recent slavery existed. Because as faraway and distant as it may feel now. Even in modern-day America, there are people who have active memories of talking to former slaves.

    In 1962, a 37-year-old man from England named Brendon Grimshaw suddenly quit his job and bought a small island in the Seychelles for about $10,000. The island was called Moyenne and, at the time of purchase, had been abandoned for 50 years. Everyone thought the man was crazy. Brendon eventually moved to the island permanently as its sole inhabitant. While most people tend to buy islands for luxury, Brendon had a broader vision. He wanted to restore the island to its raw beauty, creating a natural paradise completely uncontaminated by man and tourism. For the next 40 years, Brendon lived alone on the island; he managed to plant 16,000 trees by hand, built 5 km of nature trails and attracted around 2,000 new birds to the island. Brendon had transformed a desert land into an island of incredible beauty, Moyenne was so beautiful that Brendon was offered 50 million dollars by a Saudi prince, but he turned it down. Since Brendon died in 2012, the island has been owned by the Moyenne Island Foundation and is now a national park available to all thanks to his efforts.

    In 1964, 18-year-old Dolly Parton arrived in Nashville with dreams of becoming a country music star. Shortly after arriving, she went to the Wishy Washy Laundromat to do some laundry. Outside, she caught the attention of 21-year-old Carl Dean. Dean called out to her from across the street, and Dolly waved back. He walked over and the two began talking. Dolly later remembered being impressed that Carl looked directly at her face while they spoke instead of staring at her body. For Carl, the attraction was immediate. He later recalled thinking that he was going to marry her. Over the next several days, he repeatedly visited the home where Dolly was staying. On their first real date, he introduced her to his parents. Their relationship continued as Dolly worked to build her music career. When they decided to marry, her record label reportedly urged her to wait because executives worried that marriage could hurt her emerging image. Dolly ignored the advice. On May 30, 1966, Dolly and Carl traveled to Ringgold, Georgia, with Dolly's mother, Avie Lee. They married in a small ceremony with only a handful of people present. Dolly wore a simple white dress rather than an elaborate wedding gown. As Dolly became one of the biggest stars in country music, Carl deliberately remained outside the spotlight. He rarely attended public events and preferred a quiet life away from the entertainment industry. Their marriage lasted nearly 60 years, until Carl's death in 2025.
