X’s New Algorithm: Unblocking, User Reach, and Creator Debates | X Society Xplained

I’m unblocking people (I wish I had an unblock all button)

You should too.

Also, X should handle this rollout with great care.

Misha from X Society features several posts and replies, discussing the pulse of creators and users:

- The debate and change regarding blocking and the algorithm on X involve a new approach where accounts that are frequently blocked by verified users experience a significant reduction in reach.

- According to Elon Musk, this change aims to maximize "unregretted user-seconds," meaning the platform prioritizes content that users engage with positively.

- Critics argue this could allow coordinated efforts to sabotage accounts by mass blocking, potentially tanking their visibility.

- Conversely, supporters see it as a method to enhance user satisfaction by reducing exposure to controversial or unwanted content.
