Says WP, which is not just tilting, but completely tipped over to the left. It's hard to evaluate such claims especially from a party that is not disinterested in the demise of X. Additionally, claims from X (also not disinterested in their own success) seems to paint a rosier picture of ad revenue recovery trends, record engagement, etc., as recently as this month. Finally, considering that Twitter was arguably (I'd say demonstrably) tilted to the left prior to the buy-out, tilting right is simply getting us closer to the middle. The headline itself seems engineered to trigger some dopamine receptors in their audience. Ah, the schadenfreude, eh?

I would say your observation has some merit

But my X timeline is full of crap from people I don't follow

I have no clue how to get back to crypto twitter after I accidentally liked a fight video once

about half of derailed timeline posts say “username I followed liked this” or “follows this”, and the other half have no indication at all, and now its all wartime posts I muted and blocked so many profiles but I have no idea anymore

It definitely feels more right-toxic than left-toxic currently. Nothing close to center.

the OnlyFans girls with the top comments on every viral post are hilarious though. There are definitely some X-isms that are entertaining quirks

Someone's triggered, X is totally tilted to the right now just look at your daily feed emails, I've gotten a huge influx of random right-wing nut jobs who I don't even follow, view, or care about but for some reason, it's being pushed clear as day.

And tilting to the right is in no way getting us closer to the middle given the current politics, agenda, and direction of the right, I think you should rethink that statement.
