The data for DAN KOE's article "Restart Your Entire Life in One Day" has exploded—120 million views, which is truly rare on X. It's understandable that self-improvement content can attract such huge traffic.

But here's the question. The former X didn't have this vibe.

Now, it's filled with this kind of content. You can't help but wonder: Has the platform X changed, or have our users' tastes changed?

120 million exposures? Forget it, the screen-washing culture has already won.

120 million exposures? I took a look at my tweets... definitely far from it, haha --- To be honest, I’m pretty open-minded about success principles, but has X really fallen? --- It’s all the algorithm’s fault; whoever it pushes to, they believe it. --- Rebooting life in a day? I don’t buy it. I’ll just continue to be decadent tomorrow. --- Isn’t this just the secret to traffic? Whatever was popular before, I’ll push that. --- I kind of miss the pure feeling of early X.

1.2 billion exposures—this number is a bit outrageous. Are success stories really that popular now? X has long gone off the rails, but to be honest, the ones flooding the screens are really all using this same formula.

120 million exposures sound unbelievable, but that's how X looks now. With the algorithm change, it's all these motivational hype tricks.

1.2 billion exposures, basically just algorithm-fed motivational quotes --- x has long been fallen, now it's all content farms selling anxiety --- Instead of asking if the platform has changed, think about whether we are all hungry --- The success philosophy's harvesting technique is truly invincible, popular on any platform --- What was once information freedom has now become a traffic meat grinder --- This is how the Web3 elite community gradually turns into a content farm, I have seen it with my own eyes --- Reboot life for a day? I want to see if I can reboot the coins in my wallet after rebooting --- To put it bluntly, the more likes and shares there are, the more the platform's temperament changes, nothing surprising --- It's saturated now, this kind of content is already everywhere
