X just open sourced their algo
*Don’t ignore or you’ll be cursed by a bald Romanian gypsy*
Here's exactly how it works:
- Replies → biggest signal
Make people reply = algo
pushes you everywhere
- Quotes → same weight as likes
Controversial posts win here
- Videos → tracked by view duration
Longer watch time = bigger boost
- Text length → doesn't matter
- Hashtags → completely irrelevant
- Posting too often → hurts you
Diversity scorer lowers your score
if people see you too much
- Blocks, mutes, "not interested" :
algo buries you permanently 😭
