X has introduced a new analytics feature that compares follower and non-follower engagement metrics, providing creators insights into content performance. The data shows non-follower engagement often exceeds follower interactions, with only 2.3% of engaging users being followers, indicating significant reach. Similar trends on Threads suggest algorithms may favor non-follower content distribution, impacting community development. This feature is available to X Premium subscribers.
X (formerly Twitter) has introduced a mandatory labeling system to help users identify parody and fan accounts, featuring a jester's hat icon for parody accounts.

It addresses issues from the sale of blue verification checkmarks, widespread impersonation, and decreased brand trust, representing efforts to restore platform integrity.
X is testing an "Auto Advance" feature for continuous video playback, enhancing the viewing experience with improved TV connectivity. In April, X launched an updated Smart TV app to support this, aligning with its "video first" strategy, boosting vertical video consumption and exclusive content deals. X's real-time news coverage and Grok AI system enhance content categorization for personalized streams. The feature is still in testing.
