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 32 interactions against 772K followers, an engagement rate of 0.004%. Posts are seen about 32K times each, and 0.101% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 4.10% 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 00:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 2 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video and 100% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 22K interactions, about 696x 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 00:00 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.

I'm @ThreadReaderApp a Twitter bot here to help you read threads more easily. To trigger me, you just have to reply to (or quote) any tweet of the thread you want to unroll and mention me with the "unroll" keyword and I'll send you a link back on Twitter 😀

We have been busy with some updates to the Twitter API so you can continue to build and innovate with us. We’re excited to announce an extension of the current free Twitter API access through February 13. Here’s what we’re shipping then 🧵

Can you see this? We think our replies are deboosted... 😟

Twitter shut down API access for our app (without any warning) Hopefully we will be restored soon! We appreciate your patience until then.

It seems like Twitter shadow banned us as our account @threadreaderapp doesn't appear on search and our replies are hidden :(

Our App got unsuspended! Still no word from Twitter what happened and how long this will last but we’re not complainin’!

We're thankful we're still around... 🙏🏼to all of you! 🦃

Still waiting to hear from Twitter why our app got suspended. In the mean time, we are furiously working on a manual unroll capability. It’d be rolled out to our premium members first. And if successful, we’ll roll it out to everyone - still free of course!
