Arun Prabhudesai engagement report
@8ap - 383K followers on X
Measured over 8 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on October 1, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 800 interactions against 383K followers, an engagement rate of 0.21%. Measured over 8 original posts, its engagement rate beats 82% of 21,185 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 22K times each, and 3.69% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 5.66% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.47 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 33% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 8 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video and 13% are part of a thread. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 28K interactions, about 34x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #appleevent, #teamtrakin, #watch.

Compared with accounts its own size
Arun Prabhudesai's engagement rate beats 82% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (21,185 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 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 83% 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.

At 0.21%, Arun Prabhudesai sits above the 50th percentile of the 212,567 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the above the median band, which runs 0.146% to 0.696%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 13:00 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.

Formats this account uses
Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.
| Format | This account | Catalog effect | 95% interval | Accounts behind it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Image or video | 100% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 0% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | no effect | -2% to -1% | 42K |
- 100% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
- 0% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts.
- Its average post runs 269 characters, which falls in the 180 - 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts of 180 to 280 characters match the same accounts' other posts almost exactly.
These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

It's Shameful For the whole Tech Industry - A Negative PR against a tech creator ! I never thought I’d see the day when money would be spent not on improving a product but on trying to damage a creator’s reputation. They tried multiple ways to get promotional coverage from me. I declined because I had trust concerns & many people already know that. I simply did my job honestly & shared what I found. If the brand disagreed, that’s their choice. But now I am seeing coordinated attempts to push a false narrative around Gyan Therapy along with multiple posts targeting me personally. Honestly I have one question ? What exactly do you gain from this? People know me because of my work, not because of any manufactured narrative. Reputation built over years cannot be erased by a few sponsored attacks. What disappoints me the most is seeing personal attacks extend beyond me and even include my family. That is a line that should never be crossed. If someone believes this pressure, negativity or character assassination will make me stop speaking honestly - they are mistaken. I have always tried to do my work with integrity and I will continue to do so.

National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI): A revised UPI Merchant Discount Rate (MDR) framework will take effect on select merchant (P2M) transactions starting October 15, 2026, while keeping UPI completely free of cost for consumers and all transactions up to ₹2,000. Under the new rules, small merchants earning up to ₹1 lakh per month via QR codes will pay zero MDR, a flat ₹5 fee will apply to transactions above ₹2,000 in specific categories like railways and fuel, and other high-value P2M transactions will attract a 0.4% charge capped at ₹300. The initiative also introduces a dedicated fund to upgrade digital payment infrastructure for small vendors and Tier 3 markets. No impact on small-value UPI transactions up to ₹2,000 for all merchants, which account for more than 95% of all UPI P2M transactions.

As someone who’s constantly travelling between Pune and Mumbai, I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve been stuck in the Lonavala ghat for hours. So for me, the Missing Link isn’t just “30 mins saved.” It’s those random 1–2 hours stuck behind trucks that finally go away. Glad heavy vehicles won’t be allowed initially. Less stress, safer drives, especially during monsoons. Also, driving through the cable bridge in the rains on a fresh route… that’s something I’m actually looking forward to. Can’t wait to experience this.

Irrespective of which political party you support, students should never have to fight this hard just to be heard. What happened in Delhi yesterday was difficult to watch. After seeing some of the videos, I had to stop scrolling. Students are already dealing with exam uncertainty, paper leaks, delayed results, and one of the toughest job markets in years. Their frustration is real, and they deserve to be heard. I sincerely wish a speedy recovery to every student and police personnel who was injured. I also hope everyone involved, the authorities as well as the protesters, does everything possible to keep the protests peaceful. A democracy is strongest when people can raise their voices without violence.

- At 0.21%, Arun Prabhudesai sits above the 50th percentile of the 212,567 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
