Any idea on how Twitter's new sort algorithm works?

2 pointsby mid0over 9 years ago
Aside from twitters&#x27; explanation of how the best tweets feature works https:&#x2F;&#x2F;support.twitter.com&#x2F;articles&#x2F;164083<p>I wanted to try to see what kind of signals used.<p>Here are my top 3 observations: 1- Most Klout scores of those are re&#x2F;tweeting are in the 70+ I&#x27;ve seen much less in 40&#x27;s and a couple at 29.<p>2- Noticed a 2 tweets were identical (tweeted almost exactly the sametime) the tweet that was shown to me first was by: an account that a lower Klout rank an older account much less # of total tweets much more likes followers&#x2F;follows more or less within same range<p>3- Two completely different tweets from same user (within seconds of another) showed up (they were automatic) with no hashtags Things aren&#x27;t clear at a glance: preference for twitter cards preference for tweets with #&#x27;s preference for tweets with media<p>Anyone has any additional insights to share?
