A typical post picks up 4.9K interactions against 999K followers, an engagement rate of 0.489%. Measured over 79 original posts, its engagement rate beats 93% of 3,739 tracked accounts of a similar size. Comparing inside a size band matters here: engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly just re-measure the follower count. Posts are seen about 102K times each, and 4.77% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 10.2% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.7 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 50% of days. Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 79 posts sampled, 84% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 54K interactions, about 11x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

Brian Krassenstein's engagement rate beats 93% 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 91% 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.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 36,521 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 107,166 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 14:00 UTC, and Tuesday 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.

    HOLY CRAP! A conservative Washington Examiner reporter says she uncovered 37 pages of Trump/Epstein FBI files the DOJ had apparently missed or withheld. The documents detail a woman’s allegations of 2 years of sexual abuse by Trump and Epstein, include her unredacted name and potential corroborating witnesses, and reportedly show FBI investigators viewed the claims as credible before DOJ labeled the records “duplicative” and redacted them.
