Here is exactly how your tweets are ranked

Found this in the algorithm code

The tweet's like count is the biggest impact. 30x the impact of replies.

Next is retweet count. 20x the impact of replies

Post something offensive? Tweet is dead in the water

Multiple hashtags?… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
Going to be posting more findings as I uncover them.

Will be combing through the source code all night

Here's an obvious one, if you are verified, your entire account gets a big boost in the algorithm Image
Follower to following ratio matters.

If you follow way more users than are following you, your content will be deprioritized Image
Here are some more boosts/demotions your content can get

Boosts:
• Trends
• Media
• News

Demotions:
• No text
• URL only
• Name only Image
Links get de-prioritized if they are non-news or non-media.

Post outside links at your own risk Image
Here is how your account reputation is calculated.

It takes into account follower to following ratio, account age, device usage, if you've been restricted or suspended, and if you're verified.

Spend the $10

Posting more data all night. Follow and turn on notifications Image
Adding more to this thread momentarily

There's a ton of mind blowing things going on here

Before I continue tho:

Doing a full detailed breakdown of the algorithm and how to get ahead of it in my newsletter in a few days

Your "influence" on Twitter and in turn how likely your tweets are to be seen is heavily determined by the quality of users you interact with

Interact with low quality accounts with bad follower/following ratios and are marked as spam/nsfw/bots/toxic, you get penalized Image
There is a file of blacklisted topics.

These blacklisted topics are unknown and live in a database (not in this code)

If your tweet or username references these blacklisted topics, your profile and content get de-ranked Image
A lot of people are rushing to unfollow mass amounts of people based on this thread.

Follower/following ratio does matter, but if you unfollow a lot of people quickly, you will get shadowbanned

Mass unfollowing is considered a bot action by the algo and will deprioritize you

This is Mark Rober

He spent years building one of the strongest reputations in social media. Loved by tens of millions of followers

Yesterday he obliterated it all with one 18 minute video

It's a story of greed, deception, and cowardice

Here's the story of what happened: Image
Mark is a long time Youtuber who spent years accruing over 65 million subscribers

He filmed wildly entertaining videos testing the limits of physics and tech

He was Mr. Beast BEFORE there was a Mr. Beast

Yesterday he let money, politics, and greed get in the way of all that Image
Mark put out a video titled "Can You Fool A Self Driving Car?"

The concept of the video is simple. Drive a Tesla in Full Self Driving mode on a road where there is a wall painted like a road

See if the Tesla cameras see the wall and cause the car to stop

Harmless enough right? Image

Wow, we actually achieved AGI

I've been using Manus AI the last 24 hours straight and it's capabilities are mindblowing

It's literally your own AI employee. If a human did this it would cost me $200k

Manus does it for free

Here is how I had it design and build an entire Saas:
🔶What is Manus AI?

It's an AI agent in every sense of the term

You give it a task, it goes out and figures out all the steps needed to complete that task

Then it works for sometimes HOURS in it's own environment to complete those steps

It's truly autonomous intelligence Image
🔶What did I have Manus do?

2 hours ago I asked Manus to plan and design me a $1,000,000 SaaS application

I told it about my audience on X and had it discover their challenges, build a solution, and design a marketing plan

2 hours later it delivered me the results Image

Life changing.

You can do the same exact thing. No experience required.

Here are the 4 free AI tools you need to get started (if you bookmark this and take action I promise you'll make money):

1/
🔶 Cursor

ANYONE, no matter how little experience you have, can build software with Cursor

Cursor is an AI development tool that allows you to build full software just using AI prompts. No coding required.

I built my software 100% with Cursor + it's free!
🔶Grok

The next tool is built into the platform you're using now

Grok 3 is incredible, and the best product designer on the internet

Open Grok, tell it who your audience is and what you write about, then have it give you ideas for an app

All my app ideas have come from Grok
