X now shows which posts got a reach label, and how to appeal

Under the hood now lists your labelled posts

X's Under the hood report has been live since 18 Sep (piloted from 13 Aug) and already told you if your account carried a reach label. This update (9106e9f) adds a per-post list of which posts got a label, plus a 'How to appeal' section. It shows the label, not why your reach moved.

What I'd do: Open Under the hood, check which posts are listed and appeal any that look wrong. If you want to know why your reach moved, reply or DM @AlgoWatchX for a free check.

Ads now placed with a new 'slot spread' method

The ads blender default changed from 'multi_risk' to 'slot_spread', which changes how ads are spaced between posts. It doesn't change your post's score.

What I'd do: Nothing.

Video carousel high-risk filter switched on

A filter that removes high-risk videos from the video carousel is now on by default, and the carousel uses a newer video embedding. If your videos are borderline, they may show up less in the carousel.

What I'd do: If you post borderline video, label it properly.

fairly sure Fairly sure: the change is clear, but what it does to reach is my reading. See the code

No main ranking weights changed

Likes, replies, reposts, read time, video and 'not interested' weights are all unchanged. A new reward setting was added at 0 (off).

What I'd do: Nothing.
