Elon Muskbillionaire, current owner Twittermade his profile with over 127 million followers private to check on a bug reported by users.

“I made my account private until tomorrow morning to see if they see my private tweets more than the public ones,” Musk said in a message posted early Wednesday morning.

What is Elon Musk testing?

According to Musk, users report that tweets become more accessible when they are private, when the accessibility is only visible to people who follow the account, rather than when it is in public mode without any restrictions.

Musk will apparently spend the rest of the day testing this experiment, apparently in response to conservative users like LibsofTikTok and Ben Shapiro who have reported running their own tests to show that banned accounts generate more views than public accounts.

However, the measure fell victim to user jokes that “point out that Musk himself doesn’t know how his app works,” which he purchased for $44 billion.

One account with almost 70,000 followers joked that Musk needed to implement “a high school student’s idea of ​​an experiment to figure out how the company’s algorithm works because he fired anyone who could explain it to him.” In November, Musk was forced to start hiring engineers after mass layoffs and changes to employee benefits in Twitter they forced many of the engineers to leave the company, apparently threatening to destabilize the platform and cause crashes.

Own analysis

Report from The newspaper “New York Times analyzed 20,000 of Musk’s tweets over the past five years to assess how Musk is using the platform and whether he is meeting his stated goal of generating diverse viewpoints on the platform.

This analysis showed that Musk mainly follows the accounts of men and organizations associated with his own business, while posting “all hours of the day, most days of the week.” Increasingly, Musk is spending more time responding to fans who directly mention him in tweets praising him. With 128 million followers, even Musk’s deleted tweets are widely viewed on the platform, but with this experiment, he appears to be wondering if his platform is restricting views of his own tweets.
