Elon Musk Announces Enhanced 'Pinned Post' Visibility Feature On X

California: Billionaire Elon Musk announced a new user feature on his social media platform X (formerly known as Twitter). Musk said the platform's recommendation algorithm will ensure that all of a user's followers see their pinned post every 48 hours.

As a failsafe to deter "gaming of the system," Musk also revealed that this will only apply to one pinned post every two days. He added, "This only applies to one pinned post every 48 hours to prevent gaming of the system."

A change is coming to our recommendation algorithm that will ensure that all your followers see your pinned posts.
