Does X still reward accounts with smaller followings?

I've seen some new accounts get decent reach without having a huge audience. Curious if anyone else is seeing this lately.

Yes. Its algorithm now prioritizes pure engagement over follower count. I have also noticed the same. You can easily go viral if your posts generate rapid replies, bookmarks, and read time.
 
Yeah, X actually pushes smaller accounts way more now if the engagement rate is high in the first 10-15 minutes. It’s all about reply depth and retention on your posts rather than follower count

According to my experience, when I started 2 months ago, nothing like this happened. I am not sure if X rewards new accounts with reach or not, but most probably it depends on the account activity.
 
maller accounts get some good reach too.a post can take off when the topic gets the right kind of engagement if the account doesnt have many followers.bigger audience helps but it doesnt like the only thing that matters

Yes I have noticed this too . A smaller account can still get decent reach if the post s get good engagement . Follower count help but it does not seems to be the only factor affecting visibility
 
Yes, I think smaller accounts can get good reach if the content is actually able to get people to engage
 
when i started about two months ago i not run into anything like this.if x gives new accounts any extra reach but i think account activity probably has something to do with it
 
X does not prioritize accounts with few followers, but rather those whose posts hit the right hot topics and encourage users to engage deeply.
 
Follower count definitely isn’t everything. Good posts can still get pushed to a wider audience, especially when they create conversations.

It still does. Smaller accounts can get solid reach if the posts actually spark replies and conversation...

X seems to push content that keeps people interacting more than just pure follower count these days.
 
As long as you focus on creating content that retains viewers well and has an engaging first 3 seconds, you can absolutely explode your reach without needing a large number of followers beforehand
 
my 2 month old account got reach on replies under bigger posts way before its own posts did, so i'd test that first. anyone here seeing original posts alone take off on a fresh account
 
Yes, I’ve seen small accounts get good reach too. I think X cares more about how people react to the post than just follower count.
 
yeah, small accounts can still get good reach if the post hits right, followers dont matter as much as people think imo.
 
I've seen small accounts get most of their reach from replies

getting an early reply under a big relevant account can expose a new profile to way more people than its follower count suggests
 
Yeah, smaller accounts can still get good reach if the content gets strong engagement, follower count isnt everything.
