Building AI agents that find your next customers.

@DavidSacks Capitalism rewards those who recognize opportunities to grow. AI development will never pause because the fundamental goal of any enterprise is to create profit.

So don’t worry and embrace it.

@elonmusk @SpaceXAI Coding models may not need to be the absolute best to become the default. Speed, cost and reliability can matter more when you’re using them all day.

[Anton @AntonTamozo]

Think about a time when you were genuinely happy.

Were you angry? Envious? Jealous?

NEVER.

Stay close to people who are genuinely happy with their own lives. They have little reason to wish you harm.

@AlexHormozi People who are happy with their own lives don’t need your success to feel less important. They can genuinely celebrate it with you.

[Anton @AntonTamozo]

@AlexHormozi Everything worthwhile is hard. Stay in the game. Enjoy it.

@andymewborn Indeed, the shift has been toward direct search, where hashtags still help, but they no longer appear to play a role in ranking.

[Anton @AntonTamozo]

Another X algorithm myth-busting thread.

"1 reply = 27 likes"

Not true. Weights apply to predicted probabilities, not raw engagement counts.

"1 report cancels 468 likes"

Misleading. Reports are far rarer than likes, so they get a larger weight.

"Premium = 4× reach"

No Premium multiplier appears in the published ranking weights.

"Hashtags boost reach"

No hashtag boost appears in the ranking code.

❗️Where the code is silent, call it a hypothesis.

@ChrisWillx With all respect to hospitality workers, ofc.

[Anton @AntonTamozo]

@ChrisWillx Status, courage, competence and purpose are worth more than income alone.

[Anton @AntonTamozo]

@StepBogoutdinov True, nothing comes without effort.

[Anton @AntonTamozo]

@StepBogoutdinov Yes, all findings come from the official Github repository.

[Anton @AntonTamozo]

@elonmusk No wonder. The best one on this planet.

[Anton @AntonTamozo]

@elonmusk Is there enough energy supply in the US for this?

7 / The common thread

None of these labels delete your post or notify you. They just switch off part of your audience.

The only way to see them: track the share of impressions from non-followers, not total numbers.

[Anton @AntonTamozo]

Did you know your post has to pass a separate visibility layer to reach For You?

Ranking decides how much reach your post gets.

Visibility filters decide whether it gets shown at all.

So you can have a great post with a strong ranking score and still get buried by a visibility rule.

Most people optimize for ranking and ignore the filters.

Check👇 for the filters X uses and how to avoid triggering them.

6 / COMPROMISED

CompromisedUserLabelRule: system decides the owner no longer controls the account.

Example: password leaks, 200 "token giveaway" posts go out at 4am. You clean up by morning. The label stays. Reach is dead until it's lifted.

Before: 2FA via app, not SMS. After: rotate password, revoke all sessions, then contact support.

[Anton @AntonTamozo]

5 / IMPERSONATION

ImpersonationHighPrecisionUserLabelRule. "High precision" = fires rarely, but when it does it's almost always right. Hard to appeal.

The risk isn't you copying someone. It's someone copying your brand and getting verified first — then YOU look like the clone.

Verify early. (Inference, not code.)

[Anton @AntonTamozo]

4 / SPAM (account level)

SpamHighRecallUserLabelRule — same signal, but the label goes on YOU, not the post.

Post label kills one post. Account label cuts everything you publish until it's removed.

How you get there: a week of template threads. One is a post. A pattern is an account.

[Anton @AntonTamozo]

3 / SPAM (post level)

SpamTweetLabelRule / SpamHighRecallDropRule: post read as spam → dropped.

"High recall" = tuned to catch as much spam as possible, false positives accepted. Honest accounts get hit.

Example: 40 replies of "Great post! More in my bio" in an hour. Each one is a candidate.

[Anton @AntonTamozo]

2 / MALICIOUS_URL

MaliciousUrlOonDropRule: a link flagged as suspicious drops the post for non-followers. Text quality doesn't matter.

Example: https://t.co/Z0Biq7rN3C → tracker → landing page. Every hop is a redirect.

Fix: direct link, clean root domain, no shorteners.

[Anton @AntonTamozo]

1 / DO_NOT_AMPLIFY

X's code has DoNotAmplifyOonDropRule. Your post isn't deleted — it's hidden from everyone who doesn't follow you.

Followers see it. Stats look alive. New audience: zero.

Symptom: follower engagement normal, non-follower impressions ~0. That's a label, not "the algorithm changed."
