Engagement
Early reading. We have captured 4 original posts for this account, below the 8 we require before treating a median as settled. The numbers above describe what we have seen so far, not a finished profile of the account.
A typical post picks up 14 interactions against 896K followers, an engagement rate of 0.002%. Posts are seen about 6.6K times each, and 0.204% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.739% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.13 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 7% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 4 posts sampled, 100% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 295 interactions, about 21x its own typical post. Only 4 original posts have been captured so far, fewer than the 8 posts we want behind a median before treating it as settled. Read the figures above as an early measurement of this account, not as a finished profile of it.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 14:00 UTC, and Sunday 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.

Life is a puzzle. So best to get your straight pieces in place first. Get control of what you can, then be spontaneous.

Reminder: If you don't give attention to what has your attention, it will take more of your attention than it deserves. (So don't resist dealing with your "small stuff".)
