*TWITTER RANKING & BOOST/DEBOOST ALGORITHM*
- How it works and hidden traps

#Thread

#Twitter #opensource #code #Github #blueTick #ElonMusk twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
1. In March 2023 Elon Musk announced that Twitter is going to open source the algorithm and its code base to address the concerns of the spread of misinformation and the manipulation of public opinion through in-house censorship.

#Twitter #opensource #code #Github #blueTicktwitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
2. Twitter mentioned in its blog post that they uploaded the source code in two repositories on GitHub, the code sharing platform.

3. How Twitter Algorithm works for a user?
User actions that are positive:
1. Likes = 30x
2. Retweets = 20x
3. Images or videos = 2x
4. English UI = 0.5x tweet = 0.2x
5. Follows from seeing tweet = 4x
6. Trending topics or news = 1.1x
7. Verified = 1x
8. Good… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
4. How Twitter Algorithm works for a user?User actions that are negative:
1. Reported tweet is reduced by 700x
2. Multiple hashtags
3. Bad follower to the following ratio, e.g. if you follow 10k people and have 10k followers
4. Only posting URLs
5. Only images
6.… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
5.
1. Adding images to your Tweets gives it a 2X Boost.
2. Both images and videos lead to a nice 2x boost.
3. external links get you marked as spam. Unless you have enough engagement.
4. Being Muted, Blocked, unfollows, spam reports, and abuse reports downgrade your user… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
6. Twitter has three primary data points: engagement data such as likes, retweets, and replies, user data such as mutes, unfollows, and spam reports, and the follower graph indicating who follows you.

7. Repercussions of engagement
Words with misspellings are considered as an unknown language with a rating of 0.01. Double-checking your spelling is crucial for reaching a wider audience on Twitter, especially if you're not subscribed to Twitter Blue and can't edit your tweets.… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
8. Twitter's algorithm categorizes users into clusters based on the type of content they regularly post.
The algorithm puts you into a grouping of similar profiles. It uses that to extend tweet reach beyond your followers to similar people. If you do “out of network” content,… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
9. Twitter has been actively updating and modifying its Algorithm Coding since making it open source 2 months ago. But the most important add-on to the code is one line code snippet for the BLUE TICK OWNERS.

#Twitter #opensource #code #Github #blueTick #ElonMusk twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
10. So this is the one-line code snippet for which all of you pay $8 for...!!!!

#Twitter #opensource #code #Github #blueTick #ElonMusk twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
11. This Algorithm is ranking users based on a large number of parameters, including your reputation, your Twitter circle and your verified Twitter Blue Account.
#Twitter #opensource #code #Github #blueTick twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
12. Now despite all the claims of the previous censorship regime of Twitter done and dusted. Twitter code reveals that There is an "OutOfNetworkReplyPenalty" THAT WEIGHS 10X MORE THAN THE BOOST TWITTER BLUE ASSIGNS.
#Twitter #opensource #code #Github #blueTick twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImage
13. Basically the "OutOfNetworkReplyPenalty" makes you VIRTUALLY INVISIBLE even with your Blue Checkmark. It also keeps Retweets from getting any traction, even if Retweeted by large accounts of 100k+ Followers.
#Twitter #opensource #code #Github #blueTick twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImage
14. In addition to this, there is also Coding for "EarlyBird" and "Blender" Parameters. Blender search can improve or reduce ability of a tweet to be found in search or not found in a search by 3X to 10X.
#Twitter #opensource #code #Github #blueTick twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
15. It should be clear by now that Censorship on Twitter is far from being eliminated Elon Musk needs to do a lot to make it actually work in censor free manner.

Audrey Truschke is back with a new book to teach India and Indians about its ancient history🧵
The propaganda to plagiarize and appropriate our truthful history is back with a timeliness dating to 5000 years. Image

1. The platform

As usual Zia UsIslam from the Hindu arranged for a propaganda interview and The Hindu aptly published Audrey Truschke History propaganda interview!!
So smooth for an anti Hindu anti India newspaper. Image
2. The Aryan question
As usual Audrey Truschke deftly labelled the very origin of India's human population As "MIGRANTS" by saying that I side stepped word "Aryan" to avoid controversy!!
But her point- Nothing was indigenous to India including it's Vedic culture. Image

The reality of Indira Gandhi Sloganeer brigade 🧵

1. Legendary Sam Manekshaw, the hero of the 1971 war.

When he died in 2008, right from President Pratibha Patil, PM Manmohan Singh, Defence Minister, to the three Service Chiefs, none attended his funeral just because Sonia used to hate him.
1. Rana Banerjee, IAS, was number 2 in R&AW when 26/11 happened. He had timely submitted his report that Pakistan was planning such an attack. But it was sidelined by Manmohan Singh, then PM.
 
Post-26/11, he questioned the government of India regarding his report, which was sidelined by PM Manmohan Singh.
 
When RAW Chief Ashok Chaturvedi retired, it was his turn to takeover as RAW Chief, but then NSA M. K. Narayanan sidelined him and brought KC Verma from IB and made him RAW Chief. All this happened because Rana Banerji was questioning the government's incompetence.
 
At that time, in the intelligence ring, IAS Rana Banerji was known as a Pakistani Pandit because of his expertise on Pakistan.Image
2. How Hamid Ansari to I.K. Gujral to Manmohan Singh gave up the names and locations of R&AW assets in Iran and Pakistan!!
It's horrendous.

How Gandhi invoked 1st Caliph of Islam Abu Bakr in 1937 to implore Indian National Congress🧵

We all have seen how much Gandhi loved Muslims and How much he chastised Hindus whenever they reacted to Muslim savagery during the riots in the erstwhile British India, But in 1937 Gandhi went a bit far in placating his favorite theological children.
Read on......Image
1. The Experiment

The British allowed the 1937 elections in India as part of the reforms introduced by the Government of India Act of 1935. This act aimed to grant limited self-governance to Indians while maintaining British control over key areas like defense and foreign affairs. The elections were held to establish provincial legislative assemblies, giving Indians a degree of political participation.
The British hoped these reforms would appease growing nationalist demands while ensuring their authority remained intact. However, the elections also allowed the Indian National Congress to gain significant political power, forming governments in several provinces and strengthening the independence movement. It was a calculated move by the British, but it had unintended consequences for their colonial rule.

Congress won 5 states compared to 2 by Muslim League.Image
Image
2. The message

As usual Congress Super President Mohan Das Karam Chand Gandhi started imposing his fraud of so called "Minimalist Life Style" on the newly elected congress provincial govts. In July 1937 Gandhi wrote in his Newspaper Harijan that all Congress ministers shall stick to a minimalist life style matching the life style of their electors.
This was written by a m an who kept his Goats healthy with then Rs 10 as their monthly expense and this excludes expenses for the foreign travel of these goats whenever they would accompany Gandhi during his trips to U.K. !!Image
