X by Elon Musk Introduces Pinned Hashtags in Communities – Don’t Miss Out on This Feature!
Elon Musk, the owner of X, has revealed his intention to transform the social media platform into a comprehensive application, as disclosed in a leaked speech from an internal meeting with employees. Musk emphasized the rapid growth of Communities and hinted at the introduction of a new feature called pinned hashtag. This feature will enable group administrators to prioritize specific hashtags and enable users to easily follow and engage with particular topics within the group.
AndroidAuthority found a line of code in the latest version of X for Android where this hidden feature was found. The absence of a feature at this time may be because the developers disabled it for testing or later by releasing additional lines of code to improve/fix the feature. It could also mean that the feature was deprecated and the code wasn’t just removed. For now, though, it’s exciting information for those who regularly use communities.
X can get pinned to hashtag communities
X already supports pinned hashtags in communities. However, group administrators do not play a role in it. These are automatically picked from the current active posts and displayed in order from most popular to least popular.
However, according to the codes, it is clear that a manual action is required to pin hashtags, which would indicate that group admins can have this power to choose which hashtags they want to pin or remove.
According to the report, the update should be released soon, but its date is unknown.
In addition to this, Musk also announced at the meeting a number of new features that may soon come to the X. First on the list is the X’s voice/video calling feature, which, while an upgrade, still falls under the social circle. media. Platforms like Facebook, Instagram, Telegram and Signal already offer them. With or without the ‘All App’, this is a feature that users will appreciate.
Musk also highlights improvements to video streaming. Vertical scrolling, long video loading and an improved algorithm are some of the changes the company has made in recent months, improving the platform.
