If you’ve been utilizing Twitter’s ” For You” rather of the sequential ” Following” tab, you might have discovered an issue. A variety of users have mentioned that the algorithmic feed has actually been revealing a lot of Elon Musk’s tweets and replies, whether they follow him or not. Twitter’s CEO efficiently verified the matter, tweeting “please remain tuned while we make changes to the uh … ‘algorithm.'”
I ‘d presume that by putting “algorithm” in quotes, Musk is joking that an individual, potentially himself, might in fact be accountable for the modification. That’s not too improbable, thinking about that the Elon-forward feed gotten here soon after Musk grumbled about a drop in his own engagement and even apparently fired an engineer over the problem.
Please remain tuned while we make changes to the uh … “algorithm”
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) February 14, 2023
Following that episode, Musk tweeted that a repair was following a “long day at Twitter HQ with eng group.” He stated that 95 percent of his tweets weren’t getting provided to the Following feed due to a problem with something called “Fanout,” so that’s now been shunted to another service. He likewise kept in mind that the Recommendation algorithm wasn’t working properly, “triggering accounts with numerous fans to be discarded.”
There’s no word yet on why Twitter went from “Musk lite” to “all Elon all the time,” however it appears that concern is being dealt with. In the meantime, you might either silence Musk (a minimum of momentarily) or just utilize the Following feed to see just the tweets you wish to see, exactly when they take place.
