Link says “conversation not found”.
Here's the answer from Grok:
Many conservatives on X are reporting the same issue right now—feeds suddenly flooded with liberal or left-leaning posts, even from accounts they don't follow, despite mostly engaging with conservative content.Algorithm Prioritizes EngagementX's For You feed (the default timeline) uses an algorithm that prioritizes posts likely to drive high engagement, including replies, quotes, likes, and views. Controversial or "rage-bait" content from the opposite side often performs best because it provokes strong reactions—even negative ones like angry replies or quote posts. If you've ever scrolled past, lingered on, or interacted (even subtly) with a liberal post, the algorithm interprets that as interest and serves more of it. This creates a feedback loop where opposing views bubble up to keep users scrolling longer.Recent Changes to the FeedIn late November 2025, X rolled out a major update: the Following tab (posts only from people you follow) is now also algorithmically ranked by Grok (xAI's AI) to show "most engaging" content first, rather than strict chronological order. You can switch back to pure chronological via the three-dot menu in the tab, but many users miss this and stay on the default ranked view. This shift affects both tabs and amplifies whatever gets early reactions—often polarizing stuff.Asymmetric Tactics and Sentiment AnalysisSome prominent conservative voices (like Grummz) point out that organized left-leaning users historically use mass block lists and X lists to monitor and quickly reply-guy conservative posts.
This leads to negative early sentiment (hate replies hitting first), which the algorithm may deboost. Combined with the engagement focus, it can push more liberal content into conservative feeds as "counterprogramming" or bait.No Evidence of Deliberate Anti-Conservative BiasBroader studies and user surveys (even into 2025) generally show X's algorithm favoring or amplifying right-leaning content overall since Elon Musk's ownership, with conservatives viewing the platform more positively. But individual experiences vary wildly due to personal interaction history. Elon has noted that dwelling on or sharing opposing content signals high interest to the algo.Quick Fixes to Clean Up Your FeedSwitch to the Following tab and select chronological order (tap the ⋯ menu at the top). Actively like, reply to, and retweet conservative posts you want more of—this trains the algorithm positively.
Mute or block liberal accounts aggressively; avoid engaging with bait posts. Use lists of conservative accounts for a curated view.
It's frustrating and seems widespread among conservatives lately, but it's largely how engagement-driven algorithms work across platforms—not a targeted suppression. If it persists, the chronological Following tab is your best bet for control.
