纽约时报中文网 engagement report
@nytchinese - 3.8M followers on X
Measured over 112 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on October 28, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 112 interactions against 3.8M followers, an engagement rate of 0.003%. Measured over 112 original posts, its engagement rate beats 20% of 21,185 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 46K times each, and 0.242% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.21% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.8 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 57% of days. Most posts go out around 01:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 112 posts sampled, 100% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 2.6K interactions, about 23x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #时报专栏, #观点, #书评.

Compared with accounts its own size
纽约时报中文网's engagement rate beats 20% 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 17% 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 0.003%, 纽约时报中文网 sits below the 10th percentile of the 212,349 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.025%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 01:00 UTC, and Wednesday 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 | 0% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 100% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | -3% | -3% to -2% | 54K |
- 0% 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.
- 100% 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 135 characters, which falls in the 80 - 180 characters band. Across the catalog, posts of 80 to 180 characters run 3% below 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.

习近平的身影无处不在,电视上、广告牌上、报纸和网站的头版上都有他。然而,在我停留中国期间私下接触的数百名中国人中,没有一个人敢大声念出他的名字。甚至连外国人也往往避开提及,当想指代中国国家主席时,他们只是用手指指天花板。https://t.co/84ITAkrbdi

中国豪赌“人工智能大跃进”,经济却陷入大麻烦:在习近平领导下,中国大举推进尖端技术发展,经济却陷入通缩螺旋。一些经济学家直言,以AI为中心的资源分配可能会让普通人的生计和国家经济付出高昂代价。但领导层几乎没有理会他们的警告。https://t.co/PphtENL3B7

#观点 中国人之间为何彼此怨恨、互相攻击?经济疲软令许多人深感幻灭,在一个发泄对政府政策的不满会面临危险的国家,人们正开始将愤怒与挫败感发泄在彼此身上。中国政府拥有掌控经济和塑造公共生活的巨大权力。但它无法仅凭一道命令就让国民之间的善意失而复得。 https://t.co/ba6rr3LlsB

脱北者白惠玉说,她在朝鲜东北部劳改营注意到的第一件事就是气味。一个不比双车位车库大的牢房里关押着100多名女性。看守无法忍受不洗澡的身体发出的恶臭,在传唤囚犯时要求她们跪在三米多开外。臭虫会掉进盛着稀粥的碗里。“你不会把它吐出来,因为你活命得靠它,”工作从黎明开始。视力好的年轻女性缝制假发和假睫毛。白女士说,监狱官员告诉囚犯,货物经由附近的罗先市运往中国。https://t.co/GVAR1wQeYu

中国严格控制西藏灾情叙事:外国记者不被允许进入西藏,社交媒体上的视频被迅速删除。官媒的报道强调救援,但几乎看不到幸存者和遇难者。质疑官方死亡人数的人被处以“行政处罚”。人权观察亚洲区副主任王松莲说:“威权政府最害怕的就是问题,”她说,“它们惯用的做法就是控制叙事,扑灭一切问题,因为这些问题最终不可避免地会指向追责。”https://t.co/XlHIBrR915

中国甚至在其西北部极远的新疆地区也建立起了水产养殖业。在中国生产这类鱼的人员还面临着额外风险。政府试图利用养鱼业连同棉花种植和番茄种植等其他产业同化在新疆占人口多数的非汉族少数民族——这一努力还涉及强迫绝育、打压宗教活动及母语。https://t.co/inqu8yFp8E

以网名“李老师”闻名的李颖说,随着经济衰退,人们开始提出以前根本不需要思考的问题。许多用户可能没有意识到,他们的个人抱怨可能会被视为政治性的。例如,他说,小红书上一些政府工作人员互相比较有几个月没领到工资。对于社交媒体用户来说,他们的帖子感觉像个人反思或抱怨。但汇总起来,却勾勒出一个与官方宣扬的进步与繁荣叙事格格不入的中国。https://t.co/TFGfSqkF71

中共一直试图让“正能量”成为互联网的主导情绪,但如今社交媒体上充斥着悲观的贴文,无数关于微薄工资、工作岗位稀缺、房产贬值以及对未来担忧的帖子。人们用反讽和嘲弄来表达自己的痛苦与不满,这种批评有时甚至会触及禁忌领域——习近平以及中共的统治。https://t.co/P5TpeNZDjl

Reading these numbers
A typical post picks up 112 interactions against 3.8M followers, an engagement rate of 0.003%. Measured over 112 original posts, its engagement rate beats 20% of 21,185 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 46K times each, and 0.242% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.21% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline.

- What is 纽约时报中文网's engagement rate on X?
- 纽约时报中文网 (@nytchinese) has an engagement rate of 0.003%, based on the median interactions across 112 original posts from the last 30 days against 3,809,901 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.003%, 纽约时报中文网 sits below the 10th percentile of the 212,349 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 @nytchinese have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 20% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (21,185 accounts), which puts it in the bottom quarter for its size 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 @nytchinese post?
- Most posts go out around 01:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day, at roughly 3.8 posts per day across the measured window.
