Hey, Discord users who @ people in DMs... Why?
Do you think it's going to send a louder notification or something? Like wtf are you trying to accomplish with that???
EVERYONE GOSSIPED THAT MY HUSBAND WAS SECRETLY PAYING MY BEST FRIEND'S RENT… I LAUGHED AT THE RUMOUR UNTIL I FOUND THE RECEIPTS.
When I first heard the rumour, I laughed so hard that I almost felt sorry for the person who started it.
According to the gossip making rounds in our neighbourhood, my husband had been secretly paying my best friend's rent for almost two years.
Not only that, but he was also allegedly sending her money every month, buying her groceries and covering some of her personal expenses.
My best friend, Vanessa, had been in my life for nine years. She was practically family. She attended my wedding, stood beside me during my pregnancy, and was the first person I called whenever my marriage had problems.
So when a neighbour casually suggested that something was going on between them, I immediately shut it down.
"Please, find something better to gossip about. My husband would never do that to me, and Vanessa is practically my sister."
But the woman just looked at me and said something I couldn't forget.
"Sometimes, the people you trust the most are the ones who know exactly how to deceive you."
I ignored her.
A few weeks later, Vanessa came to visit. While we were chatting, she casually mentioned that her landlord had increased her rent, but she wasn't worried because she had already sorted it out.
I asked her how she managed to raise the money so quickly.
She smiled.
"God has been using someone to help me."
I laughed and asked who the generous person was.
She changed the subject.
That was the first time I felt something was wrong.
Two days later, my husband left his phone on the dining table while taking a shower.
A notification popped up.
It was from Vanessa.
"Baby, the landlord has confirmed receipt. Thank you for everything. I honestly don't know what I would do without you."
My heart started beating so fast.
I picked up the phone, but it was locked.
I stood there staring at the screen for almost five minutes.
When my husband came out, I asked him who had just sent him a message.
He casually replied, "One of my business contacts."
I said nothing.
That night, I couldn't sleep.
The following morning, I decided to check our joint bank statements. I found several transfers bearing Vanessa's name.
$800.
$1,200.
$650.
$1,500.
There were transfers dating back almost two years.
I felt sick.
But the biggest shock came when I discovered a monthly payment of $2,000 to an account I didn't recognise.
I took screenshots and waited for him to return home.
WHAT THE HECK IS HAPPENING?? 🚨
I just got my Notification today.
Thank you, God
Thank You @elonmusk
Thank you, Twitter/X
Thank you Guuys... Love you all
Am I doing something wrong??😍🤣
‼️SUMMARY MGA BEH!‼️

📌 Summary of the X Algorithm Update
The latest open-source algorithm changes show that X is shifting heavily toward real engagement and retention. Simply getting someone to click or tap your post isn't enough anymore—what matters most now is keeping readers engaged so they read to the end and leave a like.
📈 Metrics That Went UP (Higher Boosts)
👍Likes:
Increased to 0.708 (up from 0.66) — its highest value ever.
⏱️Time Spent Reading:
Increased by 25% (from 0.006 to 0.0075).
🫶🏻Direct Shares:
Increased to 2.118 (up from 2.0).
📉 Metrics That Went DOWN
👋🏻Tapping into a Post:
Decreased to 0.274 (down from 0.3).
🫂Staying 10+ Seconds After a Tap:
Decreased slightly to 0.385 (down from 0.4).
🎥Opening a Video:
Dropped to 0 (Zero) points. Simply opening a video earns nothing— retention (how long they keep watching) is what counts now.
💡 What You SHOULD Do
(Especially for Smaller Accounts)
✅Write to be Read:
Focus on high-value hooks and content that keeps users on the post long enough to hit "Like."
✅Write Your Own Replies:
X active AI filtering for replies under accounts with over 250k followers. Using AI tools or copying/pasting can flag your reply as "LLM Slop," preventing your notification from reaching the creator.
✅Optimize the First 2 Hours:
The algorithm gives your new posts their primary push within the first 2 hours or first 200 views. Post when your followers are most active online.
✅Optimize Your Profile & Pinned Post:
X now tracks how long users stick around when visiting your profile. Keep your pinned post relevant and avoid linking to untrusted sites.
✅Focus on High-Value Actions:
1. Copy Link: Still the highest single engagement metric at 20 points.
2. Replies / Quotes / DM Shares: Earn 5 points each.
3. Mutual Interaction (Back-and-Forth between mutuals): Earns 20 points.
🚫 What You SHOULD NOT Do
❌Don't Use AI or Copypasta Replies:
Spammy or AI-generated comments get auto-flagged and hidden from notifications.
❌Don't Clickbait Without Depth:
Chasing taps doesn't work anymore since tap value is declining.
❌Don't Post off-peak (e.g., 3 AM):
You will waste your critical 2-hour algorithmic boost window.
❌Don't Spam Posts Back-to-Back:
Multiple posts in a short window cannibalize each other's reach (a second post drops to 62% reach in the feed).
❌Don't Rely on Bookmarks:
Bookmarks carry 0 weight in the algorithm.
❌Don't Post Off-Topic
Content: A user clicking "Not Interested" penalizes your post significantly (-53.07 points).
🎯 Main Takeaway
A tap is no longer a win. The algorithm now heavily favors content where readers stay, read, and leave a like.
X AI ALGORITHM UPDATE 🚨
X updated their open source algorithm yesterday and the early likes matter even more now. Small accounts should focus on: writing posts people hit like on and read till the end (so write to be read)
tl;dr:
- X's open source code got new scores on Nov 5, the first change in 3 weeks
- likes: 0.66 → 0.708 (highest yet)
- time spent on a post: 0.006 → 0.0075
- tapping into a post: 0.3 → 0.274
- opening a video: 0.02 → 0
- new rule: AI replies may get flagged under big accounts as "llm slop" and may not reach the person's notifications
lesson learned: a tap isn't the win anymore. Someone staying and liking is.
full details:
- The new numbers
Up: likes 0.66 → 0.708, time spent on a post 0.006 → 0.0075, shares 2 → 2.118.
Down: tapping into a post 0.3 → 0.274, staying 10+ seconds after a tap 0.4 → 0.385, opening a video 0.02 → 0.
"Not interested" got a bit harsher, -52.27 → -53.07.
Copy link, replies, quotes, DM shares and follows didn't move.
X didn't explain any of this. It's just what the code says now.
(I check the open source algo daily with Claude and share updates with you)
- Look at where this has gone in a month
In early October a like was worth 0.5. Now it's 0.708.
Time spent was 0.004. Now it's 0.0075, nearly double.
A tap was 0.3 and it's going down.
Every change points the same way. X keeps paying more for people who stay.
- Why that matters if you're small
My read: you can't win on big numbers, but you can win on the people who do see your post. If they stay and like it, that counts for more today than it did last week. And those early likes also decide which new post gets the extra push.
- Video and your profile
X also switched on two new guesses in its ranking: how long someone keeps watching after they open a video, and how long they spend on a profile after tapping it.
I can't tell you what those are worth. The only file that lists them is out of date, so I won't guess a number.
My read: opening a video dropped to 0 the same day because X cares more about people who keep watching. So make the first seconds count, and make your profile worth sticking around on.
- A new rule for replies under big accounts
X runs an AI check on replies under accounts with over 250K followers. Flagged replies can get a label that lasts 14 to 30 days. One of the flags is literally called "llm slop" (AI slop, as I read it).
That part isn't new. This is: X's rules now say a labeled reply or mention doesn't reach the person's notifications unless they follow you.
Grey badge accounts and accounts X rates as highly credible skip this label. Small accounts get no such pass.
I can see the rule, I can't see if every notification goes through it yet. Either way, write your own replies.
- What didn't change
Your new posts still get their extra push in the first 2 hours and first 200 views, and they still don't get cut first.
Here's a recap of what you should be doing:
- likes just hit 0.708, the most they've ever been worth
- each second someone spends on your post is worth 25% more than last week
- staying 10+ seconds after a tap earns 0.385 on top of the tap
- reply in your own words, under big accounts especially
- make your profile worth a visit, X now guesses how long people spend there
- for video, hold attention early, just getting the open now scores 0
- being read to the end also helps X find you new readers
- originals from accounts below 50K can jump to around spot 16
- early viewers liking it is what wins that lift
- your first 2 hours and 200 views are the window, so publish when your people are online
- the biggest single number is still 20, for someone copying your link
- quotes, DM shares and replies earn 5 apiece
- back and forth between mutuals is worth 20, so follow back your regulars
- strangers only get shown your originals
- the 1st like and the 32nd like each open another route to new people
- a second post of yours in the same feed drops to 62%, so make one count
- the video lists want clips over 10 seconds
- +4 when a post is likely to earn you a new follower
- your pinned post can affect the whole account, so take a look at it
What you should NOT be doing:
- pasting AI replies under big accounts, "llm slop" is a real flag at X
- copy-paste replies, a duplicate label means they never get notified
- chasing the tap, it's down to 0.274 and falling
- off-topic posts, one likely "not interested" costs -53.07
- a video that only gets opened earns nothing for the open
- publishing at 3am burns your 2 hour window
- relying on replies and reposts to reach new people, they stay with your followers
- getting an insult label, non-followers won't see that post at all
- low quality and misinfo labels bring a warning, and non-followers can't like or share
- adult media in 3 of your last 5 posts gets the whole account labeled
- X rechecks videos for hidden content at 64 and 512 likes
- piling your replies under a big account's post can sink your own score
- one label on the account and non-followers stop seeing you
- a link to a badly rated site in your pinned post risks a 7 day label
- reusing your own wording word for word risks the copypasta flag
- pairing a low quality link with tags of strangers looks like spam to X
- engagement bait gets labeled no matter how big you are
- posting several in a row, they fight each other for the same feed
- hashtag stuffing does nothing
- counting on bookmarks, they're worth 0
- expecting For You to show a post past 48 hours

Il fut un temps où les #soirées se jouaient autour d’un jeu de société !
On riait, on partageait du gâteau et des fous rires !
Pas de #wifi, mais des regards. Pas de #notifications, juste la chaleur des voix ✨
