"The new Custom Timelines option will allow X users to choose from lists built around 75 of the most discussed topics in the app. They'll then be able to add those topics as alternative feeds that they can swipe to in-stream."
"X's Head of Product Nikita Bier said this is one of the biggest changes the app has undergone, although it seems very similar to the swipeable topic feeds that Twitter experimented with in 2019."
"X said its new topic feeds are powered by its Grok artificial intelligence system, which analyzes every post and is better at filtering the most relevant updates into these topic streams."
"Rather than tapping into listings comprised of posts from specific authors who post on certain subjects, this new approach is focused on the topic detail of each post, and then ranked for each users' specific engagement behaviors."
X has introduced Custom Timelines, enabling users to pin topic-based feeds to their home tab. This feature allows users to select from 75 popular topics and create alternative feeds. The Custom Timelines aim to enhance user engagement by breaking filter bubbles and promoting interaction with diverse content. Powered by the Grok AI system, the feeds are personalized based on individual interests and engagement behaviors. This change is seen as a significant update to the app, reminiscent of previous topic feeds tested in 2019.
