X has rolled out a new algorithm update designed to make conversations on the platform feel less hostile by prioritising posts and replies from users’ mutual followers. The change was announced by X’s head of product, Nikita Bier, who said the platform had identified a gap in its recommendation system that prevented mutual connections’ posts from appearing more prominently in reply threads.Earlier this year, the company revised its creator payment system to reward original content over reposted or aggregated material. More recently, X introduced a built-in video editor, giving creators additional tools to produce and publish original videos directly from the platform. What is your take on the proposed changes ?
