Friends - we need your help!

The algorithms here are really messing with our reach. Fantastic articles that usually get read by thousands are sometimes now only reaching a handful of people via X.

There are a few things you can do (and if you can see this, please share!)

⤵️ 🔔Activate the bell icon in our profile so you see our posts. It's right next to the button that says "following".

This means our content will hopefully appear in your "following" feed and should get screened out less often.

And please continuing to like and share our posts 🙏 Screenshot of Yorkshire Bylines X profile showing the information and options for clicking the bell icon
