Is the X app on IOS unusable for anyone else or is it just me? I use it for following ISU topics and a few financial folks, but in the past few weeks the “Following” feed was taking forever to load and sometimes it wouldn’t even load. Now that feed is also no longer in chronologically order and at times it only shows like 5-7 posts and that’s it. Meanwhile the garbage “For You” feed seems to be working flawlessly. I’ve been wanting to get out of that app for a while, but unfortunately the other app options just don’t have the same footprint quite yet… this may be it for me though. Garbage app…

Weird haven't had any issues with mine. Always on the Following feed with it set to latest instead of popular.

Edit: Most recent not latest same difference

Same thing happened for me. I just use the web version of X and it works fine. It’s not as clean as the app though.
 
Drives me nuts they keep trying to force us to see random stuff. Every so often mine reverts to 'popular.'
Yeah I find that annoying when it does the same to me every once in awhile. But least they haven't gotten rid of the option to switch back....yet anyways

I don’t event see the option to select latest on the following feed anymore.

I’m not seeing that option anymore… could be a me problem though.

Now you have me afraid if there was an update that they took it away!

This is what I see when I tap the following feed at the top.

Edit: trying to change the size wow one second

Weird. I can see his picture.
Maybe I should have waited longer. I see it in his post now, but didn’t before.
I don’t think my x app is doing any of that. Haven’t looked on website for a few days.

Yeah yours is for sure different up top. To the right of the Following I have a "V" icon which lets me tap and pulls up the feed sorting option from Most Recent and Popular. This is on my personal one... regular account but I am subscribed to GrainMarkets so uptop my options are For You, Following, Subscribed, GrainMarkets. as you can see in the picture.

When I switch to one of my business X accounts at the top is just For You and Following and I notice there is no option to change the feed sorting like you are seeing.IMG_9277.jpeg

Super weird. Same app and device, but one account has it and the other one doesn’t?
