— 📱/🇺🇸 NEW: A recent study shows that since Elon Musk endorsed Donald Trump's presidential campaign in July, X (formerly Twitter) may have adjusted its algorithm to favor Musk's account and other 'conservative' influencer accounts

Following his endorsement of Trump around July 13, Musk's posts experienced a 138% increase in views and a 238% increase in retweets compared to before.

Other 'Republican-leaning' accounts also saw similar, albeit smaller, boosts. Additionally, the findings show that X's algorithm feeds users 'political' content, regardless of their preferences.
