I've discovered that if you tweet the name "Michael Griffin" + "Elon" (or "Musk"), nobody will see your tweet organically unless they search for it directly.

Michael Griffin is an important person in Elon's real (non-mythical) history that he'd probably rather you not know about,

Is this comment a copypasta campaign from some community that hates Musk? There’s an identical comment [0] posted by another user in this thread.

Isn't it more possible than something nefarious that no one is interested and the twitter algorithm just doesn't think people will care so its downranked in searches?


Was it that way before Musk bougth Twitter? Or you didn't check before?

Also, I'm still confused by what "search for it directly" means. Like, you won't see it in author's feed at all unless you have an id of that tweet? Can you find it by searching Griffin + Musk in Twitter's search bar?
