X

Techhalla and other creators documented accounts reposting clips from Instagram and elsewhere on X. They are calling for reporting tools or a creator label.

Creators report gaining access to X’s Under the Hood feature, which exposes recommendation effects in monthly activity reports. Some August reports label posts SPAM_HIGH_RECALL and say recommendations were withheld from non-followers.

X opened applications for its Original Content Rewards Program, replacing its previous revenue-sharing setup. Applicants select 10 posts from a roughly 20-post list, verify authorship, and accept rules targeting copied or lightly altered content.

Creators say the Original Content Rewards and Verified Impressions trackers have started updating after earlier access issues. They still report gaps such as no Home Timeline versus Replies breakdown.

Creator posts say X is closing Revenue Sharing to new signups, keeping existing earnings through Sept. 7, and opening Original Content Rewards applications on Sept. 8. Creators report unclear payout rules.

Creators report a new Creator Studio rewards screen, emails, and eligibility stats for X’s Original Content Rewards. Reported targets vary from 250K verified home-timeline impressions to 500K impressions, with Sept. 8 applications and reply exclusions.

Creators posted new reports of X accounts losing monetization or seeing videos capped despite strong engagement after recent enforcement changes. Other creators described unstable reach and poorly matched feeds, making this a continuation of last week’s creator-payout complaints rather than an X statement.

Art and AI-video creators said recent X Creator Revenue Sharing payouts fell despite similar impressions or verified engagement. Other users said enforcement hit stolen content and engagement farming, leaving original creators with mixed results.

AI-art creators said X demonetized or paused accounts tied to daily art-share prompts and engagement wording. The dispute centers on whether art-share threads help discovery or cross into low-effort engagement farming.

Creators say X’s engagement-farming enforcement is hitting recurring “share your art” posts. Carolletta said monetization was removed, while others reported more original posts and replies after algorithm changes.

Multiple creators report that X is showing friends, mutuals, and followed accounts again after a recent algorithm change. Some describe it as a feed fix after months of missing creator posts.

Designers and artists said X feeds started surfacing followed accounts, mutuals, comments, and original creators again. One mutual-count test reported 3,400 views against 3,800 mutuals.

Creators identified reposted work without source credit and said many peers reported similar theft. One post claimed X is working on stolen-content warnings, but enforcement remains limited.

Elon Musk says X will publish the Phoenix feed system and future changes on GitHub with monthly release notes. Creators are already analyzing reply, dwell, native media, and negative-signal weighting in the Grok-assisted stack.

X said Communities will shut down and large AI creator groups began moving members toward chats, Substack, and external replacements. After backlash, Nikita Bier said the migration gets more time until May 30 and XChat limits will be raised.

A Turkish-language post said X is testing a way to detect original posts for creator payouts even when copies spread. The claim remains unverified, so creators should watch how the system affects reach and payout screenshots versus repost-heavy platforms.
