Measured over 5 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on October 23, 2026.
Engagement
Early reading. We have captured 5 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 164 interactions against 480K followers, an engagement rate of 0.034%. Posts are seen about 17K times each, and 0.939% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.63% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.63 post a day over the last 30 days, though only 33% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 5 posts sampled, 60% carry an image or video and 40% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 81K interactions, about 496x its own typical post. Only 5 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 15:00 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 | 60% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 40% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | no effect | -2% to -1% | 42K |
- 60% 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.
- 40% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts, so a large share of this account's output sits in the weakest bucket we measure.
- Its average post runs 210 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.

El Atleti será, por tercer Mundial consecutivo, el club con más jugadores en la final ❤️🤍 Además, firmaremos la mayor representación de un equipo en una final de la Copa del Mundo desde Italia 1934 y la mayor presencia de un club español en el partido por el título en toda la historia 🌍🏆

1. After thousands of migrants crossed into Ceuta from Morocco this week, Italy threatened to “suspend Schengen with Spain.” It just can’t. Under EU law, no Member State can unilaterally suspend another’s participation in Schengen.

Da mucho asco lo de este mundial. La expulsión de Embolo merece una acción generalizada para que esta vergüenza en favor de Messi y Argentina se acabe de una vez. Vámonos todos. Son una banda organizada dispuesta a cualquier cosa!!!!

Cuando Francia ganó el Mundial, The Washington Post publicó una tribuna que recuerdo muy bien, y que recibió numerosos elogios, con este titular: «África ganó el Mundial». Años después hizo la misma broma el humorista Trevor Noah, que no es precisamente tildado de fascista ultramontano. Menos fingir desmayos y más sentido del humor. https://t.co/BcPDXnQXg7

Thirteen years ago, a quick email exchange with @JeffDean brought me to @Google. After an unforgettable journey from Brain, to DeepMind, and to @GoogleDeepMind, working on seq2seq or distillation, and co-leading huge projects such as AlphaStar, and Gemini, I'm saying goodbye to GDM. The best part? The same person who brought me in is challenging me to take the next leap. Excited to build Discovery Loop (@DiscoLoopAI) alongside @JeffDean, @quocleix, and @Sanjay_Ghemawat Deeply grateful to everyone who made GDM feel like home. Time to try something new and to keep it drastic! ✨♾
