Measured over 1 original post from a 30-day window, last computed on October 25, 2026.
Engagement
Early reading. We have captured 1 original post 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 49 interactions against 162K followers, an engagement rate of 0.03%. Posts are seen about 6.3K times each, and 0.774% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.91% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.23 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 17% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 1 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video and 100% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 188 interactions, about 3.8x its own typical post. Only 1 original post 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 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.

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 | 100% 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.
- 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 233 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.

Time is no longer on Putin's side in his war with Ukraine. But he may not realize this: the country has no independent press, and Putin’s advisers are afraid of delivering bad news to him. My oped for Project Syndicate @ProSyn https://t.co/uldtfA62sY

❗️На этой неделе в реестр «иноагентов» внесли одного из наиболее выдающихся современных химиков — Александра Кабанова. Это лишь часть продолжающейся атаки на научное сообщество Кабанов, которого Минюст внёс в реестр «иноагентов», с 1990-х годов живёт в США. Он работает в Университете Северной Каролины, где занимает должность заслуженного профессора и возглавляет Центр нанотехнологий в доставке лекарств. Кабанов опубликовал более 350 научных работ и имеет не менее 36 патентов США. Суммарное цитирование его работ превышает 57 000, а индекс Хирша — 120. При этом Кабанов внёс значительный вклад в создание новых направлений науки и в России, отметил в разговоре с «Эхом» физик Андрей Ростовцев, сооснователь сообщества «Диссернет». 💬 «Он действительно болел за свое дело и делал всё возможное, чтобы создать научную школу, помогать молодым ученым публиковать результаты своих работ в престижных международных изданиях. К сожалению, сегодня Россия ведет себя подобно варвару, демонстративно унижая тех, кто ранее оказывал ей всестороннюю помощь и поддержку», — сказал он. По словам Ростовцева, условия продолжительной войны позволили «выйти на поверхность посредственности, как в политике, так и в сфере науки и образования». 💬 «Один мой хороший знакомый говорил, что раньше эту посредственность можно было легко загнать тапком обратно под плинтус, из-под которого она выползала. Но теперь в атмосфере разлагающейся правовой среды такое противодействие стало невозможным и даже опасным. Ведущие мировые научные центры один за другим становятся в России нежелательными, развитые в научном плане страны — недружественными и враждебными. Не удивительно, что отдельные ученые, сохранявшие контакты с русскоязычной аудиторией, тоже получают клеймо "иноагентов". Это симптом очень опасной болезни», — говорит Ростовцев. На прошлой неделе в перечень «нежелательных организаций» был внесён Стэнфордский университет, а глава Минобрнауки Валерий Фальков требует от российских вузов отправить в армию 2% студентов.
