X is similar now for new accounts now. Except it's not just the timeline content, it is the advertisers too. My active account gets regular advertisers but my inactive one has all X rated and scam advertisements. And tons of "18+" bots that will go around auto-liking people's posts.
- r0fl 2y agoI have the complete opposite X experience I have a new account, I only follow ai, coding and tech accounts My following page is amazing! Not one dumb thing in my face. The for you feed is garbage but I never go there
- throwaway2016a 2y agoI have no doubt that is your experience and it's good to hear some people are having good experiences with it. My main account is fine but I have an account that follows very few other accounts (it's for a product I was building that never really took off) and I just signed in and scrolled until I hit 8 ads. The ads were in this order (completely unedited list... I'm not editorializing here): - Robinhood - A very explicit "male enhancement" ad - A movie ad for a movie I've never heard of until now - A "bedroom aid" (blue pill) - A marijuana dispensary - A scammy looking mobile app - Another ad for a pill for men who are having trouble in the bedroom - An affiliate marketing scam ... I stopped scrolling at that point because it felt like enough.
