X's ranking weights leaked: a report costs -355 likes, copy-link earns 30
FinanceYF5 · x · 2026-10-27
A detailed breakdown of X's latest recommendation algorithm weights shows the platform predicts what each viewer will do rather than just counting engagements: a copy-link from a mutual follower is worth 30 likes, quotes 24, likes 7, replies 5.4; meanwhile a report carries a -355-like penalty, 'not interested' -74, and block/mute -74/-50. Posts pass filters (muted accounts, spam) then get scored into the home feed; distribution ends on repeats, likes-timeouts, or flagged content, with a 2,000-post cap and 10-second read window. The first 40 minutes are decisive, so the playbook is: reply early, post from real accounts with mutuals, and ride trends.
