If you're on CT, you've seen the growing negative sentiment towards the X algo.
Unfortunately, any platform whose business model revolves around ad dollars will ultimately fall down this trap.
They don't get paid when you find value in something. They get paid when you engage with something.
This produces and incentivizes very different content.
To stop the slaughter of slop, we need to change the fundamental relationship between the product and its users.
Value > Attention
Upside doesn't solve this yet, but it's our goal for 2026.
Show people what they value, now what Elon or Nikita thinks you should see.

Seeing the most popular posts among all the people I followed helped me easily see what CT was interested in so I could do my job better.
The algo currently does a good job of feeding me more posts
