A typical post picks up 344 interactions against 133K followers, an engagement rate of 0.258%. Measured over 18 original posts, its engagement rate beats 71% of 21,185 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 12K times each, and 2.77% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 9.30% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.2 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 47% of days. Most posts go out around 07:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 18 posts sampled, 61% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 1.5K interactions, about 4.4x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

Timothy Kalyegira's engagement rate beats 71% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (21,185 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 8 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 71% 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.

Where this sits in the catalog

At 0.258%, Timothy Kalyegira sits above the 50th percentile of the 212,656 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the above the median band, which runs 0.146% to 0.697%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 212,656 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,418 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 07:00 UTC, and Sunday 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.

Engagement by hour posted, UTCTwenty-four bars, one per UTC hour. Each bar shows how posts published in that hour compare with their own authors' median engagement. Bars above the centre line ran higher than the median, bars below ran lower. A marker flags Busiest hour: 07:00 UTC.

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.

  • 61% 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 284 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 15% above the same accounts' other posts.

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.

    The Tooro succession remains the No. 1 national topic. Yesterday here in Kasese, a Munyankore woman, bitter about the selection committee, said the question of Tooro's rightful king should be put to a national vote. She said she would vote "with both hands" for Baby Oyo.

    I would like to express my gratitude to the 136 people here who sponsored my video and photo trip to commemorate the untimely death of King Oyo of Tooro. Although the royal burial took place yesterday, I'm still shooting content in various parts of Tooro for the next few days.

After the abolition of the kingdoms, the government evicted the monarchs from their palaces and gave Kaboyo this house. At the time of his death, King Oyo was renovating it.

    Tooro Kingdom has the potential to be the most modern part of Uganda. If I had the power, I'd bring in about 200 Europeans to run Fort Portal. Europeans' rich imagination, attention to detail, organisational genius, and strong sense of purpose would turn Tooro into a jewel.

    In a July 2023 Sunday Monitor review of 30 years of Mutebi's reign, I said the Aga Khan's kingdom lacks geographical territory or a parliament. Yet it's so influential in East Africa, from schools to hospitals, hotels, and media- more impactful than our kingdoms with territory.

    In tomorrow's Daily Monitor, Sept. 7, read my history of the Tooro kingdom. It traces Tooro's origins, the decisive impact of European missionaries, schools, the stylish, often chaotic royal family, etc. It's a much more comprehensive brief than the Tooro entry on Wikipedia.

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 344 interactions against 133K followers, an engagement rate of 0.258%. Measured over 18 original posts, its engagement rate beats 71% of 21,185 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 12K times each, and 2.77% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 9.30% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.2 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 47% of days. Most posts go out around 07:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 18 posts sampled, 61% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 1.5K interactions, about 4.4x its own typical post.

What is Timothy Kalyegira's engagement rate on X?
Timothy Kalyegira (@TimKalyegira) has an engagement rate of 0.258%, based on the median interactions across 18 original posts from the last 30 days against 133,383 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.258%, Timothy Kalyegira sits above the 50th percentile of the 212,656 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.
Does @TimKalyegira have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 71% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (21,185 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
When does @TimKalyegira post?
Most posts go out around 07:00 UTC, and Sunday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.2 posts per day across the measured window.
