Musk announced that he will soon modify the X algorithm and prioritize promoting content that is considered informative or educational, which has been widely opposed. Musk stated that the planned modifications are in response to "too much negative news" on X. In a social media post on January 3rd, he wrote, "Our goal is to maximize the time users don't regret using the platform. Too many negative messages being pushed technically will increase user usage time, but not increase the time users don't regret using the platform." In response, users on X described the algorithm changes as a form of censorship and questioned Musk about who has the right to decide on "negative content" on the platform. @iftikhar
