Someone asked to see how Alba's interactions over the past week compared to the other major parties in Scotland, so here you go:
In terms of daily averages of Facebook interactions over the past week, here's the leaderboard of Scottish parties:

1⃣ SNP (20,122)
2⃣Tories (6641)
3⃣The Greens (1429)
4⃣Labour (994)
5⃣Alba (732)
Key takeaways:

📈The SNP has way more interactions than all other parties combined.

💻 Compared to Alba, the Greens have double the amount of average daily interactions.

Alba has a high interaction rate (total interactions per post➗page followers) which could be because of...

💬 an active but small base of Facebook followers.

👩‍💻 people who don't follow the page engaging with Alba (to deride them as the comments imply...)

🤷or both!
It's also worth noting that since last Friday Alex Salmond has lost Facebook followers, and the SNP & Greens have gained a fair few.

Before we have polls to indicate how the Alba Party might do in the upcoming Scottish elections I thought I'd have a quick look at what social media tells us about their support...

#Holyrood2021 #SP2021
Alba officially launched last week, and since then they have gained:

⚫️ 8868 Twitter followers

⚫️ 1518 Facebook followers

Those don't feel like the levels of support I would expect a popular party with electoral potential to have. In fact I'm surprised by how small it is...
According to @crowdtangle, the Alba Party have only had a total of 5126 interactions on Facebook (likes, shares, comments, reactions) in the past week.

The majority of these (2993 interactions) were from the launch day...
