Some believe the change could help cut down engagement-farming posts on the platform — something Crypto X may be all too familiar with.
The social media platform X could be removing likes and reposts from view on the timeline “within the next few weeks,” according to a software engineer at X.
“I’m not working on this change myself, but employees are still dogfooding it. It should be gradually rolled out to users in the next few weeks and the UX may change by then,” said X software engineer Ellis Driscoll in an April 29 post.
Drsicoll’s comments came in response to a demo video of the unreleased user experience (UX) which shows an “exploding menu” where likes and reposts are contained within a separate menu on the home screen, originally shared by X’s head of payments Christopher Stanley.
