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 878 interactions against 879K followers, an engagement rate of 0.1%. Posts are seen about 61K times each, and 1.43% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 6.98% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.1 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 10% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 21:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 184K interactions, about 209x 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.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 41,299 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 90,063 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.
