The shift toward showing more content from accounts you do not follow has sparked heated debate. Here is what changed and how users are reacting.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 id="what-actually-changed"&gt;What Actually Changed?
&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;According to X&amp;rsquo;s official announcement, the recommendation engine was overhauled to improve &amp;ldquo;Discoverability.&amp;rdquo; Key changes include:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;More un-followed content in Following tab&lt;/strong&gt;: Previously confined to the &amp;ldquo;For You&amp;rdquo; tab, posts from accounts you do not follow now appear in the &amp;ldquo;Following&amp;rdquo; tab at a fixed ratio.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Long-form posts get priority&lt;/strong&gt;: Posts exceeding a certain character count are now weighted higher, favoring analytical and explanatory content over short one-liners.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Dwell time over engagement&lt;/strong&gt;: The algorithm now factors how long users spend reading a post, not just likes and reposts. This means quietly valuable content can surface even without viral engagement metrics.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h2 id="how-users-are-reacting"&gt;How Users Are Reacting
&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;The reaction online splits into three camps.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Summer 2026 X (Twitter) Trends: Viral Posts from Late June</title><link>/en/sns-buzz/summer-2026-x-twitter-trends-viral-posts-from-late-june/</link><pubDate>Sun, 28 Jun 2026 18:00:00 +0900</pubDate><guid>/en/sns-buzz/summer-2026-x-twitter-trends-viral-posts-from-late-june/</guid><description>&lt;img src="/img/thumbnail/summer-2026-x-twitter-trends-viral-posts-en.png" alt="Featured image of post Summer 2026 X (Twitter) Trends: Viral Posts from Late June" /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Late June on X (formerly Twitter) has been buzzing with distinctly summer-themed content. Here are the most-talked-about posts and hashtags from June 25-30.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 id="whereareyougoingthissummer-trends-big"&gt;#WhereAreYouGoingThisSummer Trends Big
&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;The hashtag #今年の夏どこ行く (Where Are You Going This Summer?) exploded in late June. Travel enthusiasts shared their holiday plans — a post about revisiting Furano&amp;rsquo;s lavender fields racked up over 10,000 likes. Budget-conscious users countered with plans for local pools and fireworks displays, earning widespread empathy given rising prices. Festival-goers proudly announced successful ticket lotteries, sparking excited comment chains.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
