FinanceYF5 · x · 2026-10-27

Parts 6 and 5 of FinanceYF5's series on X's current ranking weights and originality advantage. Weights: like 0.66, 10+ second read +0.4, copy-link share 20, reply/quote/DM share 5 each, reply between mutuals 20, new follower generated 4, bookmark 0; dwell-time weight up 50% vs two weeks ago. Originality: only original tweets reach beyond your follower graph; for accounts under 50k followers a fresh original post can land around slot 16 in the feed; a second post in the same session gets only 62% of the first's weight, and the 1st and 32nd likes can each open new stranger-distribution paths.
