X is the best app I’ve ever used. With tones of features from in app photo (all editing features), video, audio and even gifs(great feature) and A.I system aka grok. X is great for instant news earth wide! It delivers real news faster than any legacy media with a neutral approach. Most politicians, CEO’s and what nots use it daily, and interact with all on a human level. It’s also great for making new friends! Kindness is core to X values! Everyone is heard and the lies are exposed! Community notes adds a foot note to Xpost that are harbouring lies and anyone can participate in it by adding a review, a real fact checker! I deleted all other social media apps as it was endless spam, scam & never ending ads selling me every product under the sun. They lack authenticity and are a big time waster harvesting our data! There is multiple subscriptions Free, Premium & X Premium + and I know that free users have access to Grok (get on it, play & learn) and if you have an extra buck in your pocket subscribe to premium or premium +. It makes the experience seamless! As for Grok, it cannot be compared to any other AI system as it’s truth seeking and non bias. It has so many features from in depth explanations on any subject to meme creation. It will also draw your ideas. It’s interactive if you have difficulty understanding an Xpost, it will give you a simple explanation instantly. I discover something new everyday with grok. It’s super creative so you never know what to expect with the design! It’s constantly evolving and expanding! And always looking forward to discover more. Get on X so you can receive instant worldwide news, make new friends & explore the endless possibilities of A.I aka Grok.
Could do more for entrepreneurs
Whitewitchzita
I love X and despite the propaganda (which in truth is all I have to base my opinion) I love Elon Musk. It’s a gut feeling. I’m excited and anxious in equal measure about the future of society, not so much humanity because it will prevail. I’m a female entrepreneur who doesn’t give up. Like you I believed that people mist populate the earth. Ive given birth to and raised seven kids and stayed at home to take care of them. Running small businesses at home. I would love of X would give entrepreneurs like me a bit of something special. A space, a leg up, a lift, a hand up. It would be good. I love X and Elon either way.
Request feature to remove a full category from Trending lists
Sinead S.1
It’s extremely aggravating to have to continue to remove football / American football / Sports / K-Pop trends individually.Also, when attempting to remove these items by tapping ‘not interested in this’ the page skips back to the top instead of staying at that location, which makes the process of removing the trends I am not interested in, even longer.Please introduce a way to remove an entire category from the trending list i.e. sports / football / American football / K-popAs an aside, more often than not, American football items take up the the majority of the list in the mornings despite the country setting being Ireland & no Irish accounts are tweeting about American football because it’s the middle of the night.It makes no sense.
The fastest decline in quality in the history of social media
Simeliusz
X is a bad choice of name and nobody is using it. The logo is hilariously ugly and doesn’t even fit into the rest of the interface — design by people who don’t care. If only the quality would make up for it, but it’s just an endless tragedy of declining reliability, spam and hate speech. On top of that algorithmic feed curation is getting out of hand (without filtering out the spam and hate speech), follows almost don’t seem to matter for feed curation any longer. The main advantage Twitter has over competitors and that makes it useful sometimes is the network effect. But now that more and more people are moving to alternatives, it really matters less and less.This has to be the fastest decline in quality of a service in the history of social media.
We made improvements and squashed bugs so X is even better for you.
