So how does the "readers added context" work? They vote for shows up?
Someone proposes. People rate. And if enough people rate positive, and the people who rate positive have had conflicting opinions about other notes, it is approved.
So when you read a tweet (an X? Xpost?), can you select to read all the proposed "added context"?
If you’re enrolled in some rating program it will show it to you, otherwise not. The notes thing is still in beta and most people can’t see it.
A tweet or a Xit (pronounced: shit). All other names are inaccurate.
Xcrement.
And it somehow still sort of works properly. I would've thought Musk would've put his thumb on the scale for this feature as well.
Edit: then again, I've never seen one on a Musk post, so maybe he does mess with them.
