You open For You. X does not replay a saved timeline. It builds a new page, right then.

This is that story, from the public x-algorithm drop of August 2026.

The pages

<aside> 📝

The playbook

The tweet the code can actually boost. Start here if you post.

</aside>

1. A new page every time

A fresh For You, every request. Nothing waiting in a drawer.

2. Three doors

Follows, taste, crowd. If nothing picks you, you don’t exist.

3. Cut before the score

Most posts die here — before any score.

4. The score

Copy-link +20. A like is +0.5. A report is −234.

5. One author, one seat

One account cannot take five seats on the same page.

6. Show, blur, or hide

After the score: show, blur, or gone.

7. Ads and extras

Ads and “who to follow” sit in the gaps.

The other feed

Following is not For You. A different product.
