🚨 New Composition!

Been working on this one over the week. This whole month I’ve been diving into all of the minor scales. I love the spooky sound they give and it’s very fitting for the month of October.

What kind of vibes does this give you?

[Night’s Fool Music @NightsFoolMusic]

I was actually thinking about this as well while working out this morning. Something seems to have shifted in the last 10 years or so. Everything feels different. I wrote lyrics about it recently called Memories Compromised. It’s almost like the masses’ memories have been wiped and new feelings and thoughts have been put in. Almost like they now believe they’ve been thinking this way all of their lives when really their memories have been compromised.

If your tweet takes more than 5 seconds to read, it's not a take, it's a hostage negotiation

If we’re living in the Matrix… are you awake like Morpheus searching for The One, or are you Neo and you just don’t know it yet? 👀🕶️

@arjmxrell Idk how much I trust the whole new run out but it seems like things will be changing and hopefully for the better. As of now it seems real difficult to become part of the rewards program and then tough to make enough to quit our day jobs

Hey friends,

Wanted to share something I just came across about how X’s For You feed actually works right now.

A lot of us are trying to figure out reach and what actually moves the needle, so I figured this might be useful. The big takeaway from the latest look at the open-source algorithm: new posts (especially from smaller accounts) are no longer getting cut first when the system has too many candidates to score. Everything gets trimmed more evenly now.

Still true that the first couple hours matter a lot, likes carry more weight than they used to, and the usual stuff (shares, replies from mutuals, time spent) still outweighs raw likes. But the “new posts last in line” part appears to have changed.

I hope you find this info helpful if you’re in the trenches with this stuff.

X ALGORITHM UPDATE 🚨

X just stopped cutting new posts first, and that should help small accounts (I check it daily with Claude and share updates worth sharing with you)

tl;dr:

- X can only check 2,800 posts each time you open your feed
- new posts used to be last in line, so they got cut first
- now everything gets cut equally, new posts included
- posts labeled low quality or misinfo now show a warning, and people can't like, reply or share them
- no score changes this time

lesson learned: your new posts now get a fair chance to be seen. Your first 2 hours still matter most.

full details:

- How it worked until this week

Every time someone opens For You, X collects around 3,700 posts it could show them: posts from people they follow, popular posts, posts liked by similar people, and brand new posts.

But X only has time to check 2,800 of them.

So it just took the first 2,800 in line. Brand new posts were at the back of the line. When there were too many, they were the ones left out... and a post that never gets checked can't be shown.

- What changed

Now everything gets cut by the same amount. 25% too many? Every type of post loses 25%, new posts included. Nobody goes first.

- Why small accounts should care

Those brand new posts are under 2 hours old, with under 8 likes and under 500 views. That's where most posts from smaller accounts are.

My read: they now get a fair chance instead of being cut first. How often X actually hits the 2,800 limit isn't in the code, so I can't tell you how big the difference is.

- Low quality and misinfo posts now show a warning

If X labels your post as low quality or misinformation, people who don't follow you see a warning on it, and they can't like, reply, repost, bookmark or share it. The code doesn't say what gets a post that label.

Here's a recap of what you should be doing:

- a new post gets its extra push only in its first 2 hours and first 200 views, so post when your people are online
- likes carry more weight than ever at 0.66 each
- people sticking around pays, the time-spent score is 50% higher than two weeks ago
- a read of 10+ seconds after someone opens your post adds 0.4
- the boost favors the post with the best like rate from its first viewers
- accounts up to 50K can get one fresh original lifted to roughly 16th
- nothing beats a copy link share, it scores 20
- replies, quotes and DM shares each score 5
- talk with your mutuals, replies between you score 20 instead of 5
- originals are the only posts that travel outside your follower base
- the 1st and the 32nd like each open a new route to strangers
- your 2nd post in the same feed is worth 62% of the first, so pick your best one
- videos still need 10+ seconds to qualify for the video lists
- earning a follow adds 4
- a pinned post with a bad link can flag the account for 7 days, worth a quick check

What you should NOT be doing:

- posts that get labeled low quality or misinfo now carry a warning, and nobody outside your followers can like or share them
- video alone won't carry you, an open counts 0.02 and the watch 0
- hide-worthy posts cost more, "not interested" sits at -52.27
- a post at 3am burns its 2 hour window before anyone sees it
- a tap that turns into a bounce is worth only 0.3
- replies and reposts don't get past your followers
- insults get your post hidden from anyone who doesn't follow you
- adult media in 3 of your last 5 posts puts a label on your account
- disguised content in videos gets checked from 64 likes, harder at 512
- self-reply chains under big accounts risk being zeroed
- one account label and non-followers stop seeing you entirely
- low-rated links don't belong in your pinned post
- recycled wording can get tagged as copypasta spam
- strangers tagged plus a low quality link is a pattern X flags
- engagement bait has no size exemption
- several posts in a row end up competing with each other
- hashtag stacks add nothing
- bookmarks are still worth 0
- 48 hours in, For You is finished with a post

@DellaT19 I’m going to keep studying it and get better. I say that like it’s a living thing haha

🎹 7 major piano scales. 33 seconds. Can you keep up?

A quick run-through from A to G. How many can you play from memory? 👀🎶

[Night’s Fool Music @NightsFoolMusic]

@DrGuitar Also underrated for his studio work. He was so good getting the sound that they had. Bonham’s drums. The big guitar sound.

@W0rldwid3vib3s @X See one of my recent posts for what it may be

[Night’s Fool Music @NightsFoolMusic]

@DellaT19 No I haven’t really noticed a difference but it’s still early so we’ll see

[Night’s Fool Music @NightsFoolMusic]

@DellaT19 I have seen it now a few times today from different accounts. The algorithm definitely wants us to know this information. Wonder if it will help us smaller accounts like they are saying.

[Night’s Fool Music @NightsFoolMusic]

@AlexDelarge6553 Easy!
