Engagement
Early reading. We have captured 2 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 408 interactions against 1.5M followers, an engagement rate of 0.027%. Posts are seen about 221K times each, and 0.185% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 14.8% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.17 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 10% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 16:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 2 posts sampled, 50% carry an image or video and 100% are part of a thread. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 348K interactions, about 861x its own typical post. Only 2 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 16:00 UTC, and Monday 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.

Introducing the Printing Press, a CLI-factory and a CLI-library. Built with @trevin. 🏭🖨📚 Most APIs suck for agents. Most MCPs suck for agents. Most official CLIs suck for agents. They waste tokens and time. @steipete started making his own because of this. 📚 A Library of agent-native CLIs you install today (Linear, ESPN, Flight GOAT (Google Flights + Kayak nonstop), Contact Goat (LinkedIn + Happenstance + Deepline more) +30+ more) 🏭 A factory that prints new ones for any service - just type /printing-press <product name> CLIs are fast, local, SQLite-backed. Work in Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw, Hermes. 🌐 https://t.co/GjnN9E9yTH
