X Leaderboards

When I joined X a few months ago, I was excited to get involved with communities like Build in Public and Startup Community. But disappointment hit quickly. So much of the content was the same: - Engagement bait questions - AI generated motivational statements - Low-effort one-liners As someone who is also looking to grow on X, I get it. This is the type of content that the algorithm often rewards. But when I'm reading my community feeds, I want to learn from real experiences, discover what's on the cutting edge, and make genuine connections. This got me thinking — if the algorithm isn't incentivizing creators to post high-value content, maybe I can build something that will. Presenting: 🏆 X Leaderboards — a Chrome Extension and leaderboard that ranks posts and creators by quality, not engagement. How it works: - A free Chrome Extension auto-scores posts by value - The generated scores are crowd-sourced into weekly creator leaderboards It’s already been an incredibly useful resource for me, and I’m thrilled to open it up to other members of my X communities. At a minimum, I hope the filtering mechanisms in the Chrome Extension will help others clean up their community timelines. However, my ultimate goal is to get people excited about ranking on the weekly leaderboards, creating an incentive for high-value content, and thus improving the experience of communities on X overall. TL;DR: 🚮 Filter out junk from your timeline 🥇 Compete to rise on the leaderboard 📈 Incentivize better posts across communities I’m starting with the communities I’m a part of, Build in Public and Startup Community, but look forward to expanding based on demand. I hope you enjoy!
