Elon Musk confirms Twitter’s algorithm prioritizes images and videos over posts with links, reducing their reach. Users have found workarounds, such as posting screenshots or multi-tweet threads, but these are annoying for readers and posters. Musk claims this change aims to prevent “lazy linking,” but the term’s meaning is unclear, sparking criticism from users who miss Twitter’s former utility for discovering interesting articles.
