X (formerly Twitter) users around the world will be celebrating a long-awaited victory against a frustrating timeline auto-refreshing bug. Elon Musk, the platform’s owner, has acknowledged and committed to fixing the issue that has plagued mobile users for years.
The problem? Scrolling through your timeline, spotting an interesting post, then poof! The feed refreshes, and the post vanishes into the abyss, never to be seen again. This phenomenon has been a source of endless annoyance for X users, especially those who rely on the platform for quick news and information.
But hope is on the horizon. After a user publicly pleaded with Musk to address the issue, he responded with a simple yet impactful message: “Yeah, we’re fixing this so you can scroll back to see interesting posts.”
This seemingly small change could have a big impact on the X user experience. It would allow users to seamlessly scroll through their timeline without fear of losing track of interesting content. This is particularly crucial for users who rely on X for real-time updates and breaking news.
While a specific timeline for the fix hasn’t been announced, the fact that Musk has personally acknowledged the issue is a positive sign. For many users, this is a step in the right direction towards a more user-friendly and enjoyable X experience. Now, if only they could fix the bot menace!
