It seems to be, as we can read in Wiredthat Elon Musk has requested and succeeded in modifying the Twitter algorithm in order to increase the reach of his tweets in an extremely significant way, to the point that even users who have blocked the mogul continue to see his tweets from time to time.
The reasoning behind this is unknown, but it is speculated that it all started in a kind of envy when seeing how a tweet of his yielded less than a similar tweet from Joe Biden, both related to the Super Bowl. While accessing the actual numbers is tricky, it is believed to have boosted Elon Musk’s reach by a factor of 1,000.
Although there are several changes -focused or not on him- that could make more or less sense if we get into his mind, in this case it doesn’t seem to make any sensesince it is difficult to point to any other problem that is not of a personal nature to justify this change at a global level on the platform.
In any case, if you timeline Twitter is full of tweets from Elon Musk, It is not that you have problems with your followers or followers, but that your strategy is working.
