Posts lose half their visibility every 6 hours on X now.

Does this mean the golden era of scheduling tools is over, or should we just spam post 4x daily instead?
 
Reach drops fast now, posting 4-5 times daily is the only way to stay visible.
 
Scheduling tools can help with consistency, but they don’t create engagement.
 
yes i have seen the same drop in visibility on X, I think spamming 4× a day isn’t great better mix timing with good engagement so posts don’t disappear as quick.
 
The algorithm changed a lot after Elon Musk, and now I post a lot more. Otherwise, it doesn't show me up on the Explore page.
 
i think X wants people to post more times a day, i dont think the drop is accidental and posting 4x times a day is not excessive. How did it work out for you after you increased posting?

I also don't think posting 4x times per day isn't excessive. In my opinion you should post 15 to 20 times per day just like Grant Cardone says.
 
Nah, spamming 4x/day just annoy ppl, better focus on making 1 really good post and engage with ppl after posting.
 
Spamming in 2026 nah.... it will be easily spotted n then people are smart enough to ignore it as ads.
 
haha yea noticed this too, spamming more might help a bit but quality and timing still matter more than just flooding posts.
 
Feels like lifespan on X is definitely shorter now, but not sure if posting more automatically solves it. Sometimes 1 solid post still outperforms multiple average ones. Curious if people are seeing better results from higher frequency or just better timing/replies?
 
The real issue isn't the lifespan of a single post, but building a consistent presence that resonates. Instead of thinking about spamming, let's focus on the quality and relevance of what you're putting out. If the content is genuinely valuable, it'll find its audience and have a longer tail than you're currently seeing, regardless of X's algorithm shifts
