‘For You’ feeds fail on election night, offering outdated information, angering users
“For You” algorithms that promote the most interesting content across a social network, personalized to the individual user, offered a disjointed, outdated, and nearly unusable experience on election night in the U.S. as they highlighted hours-old posts that no longer reflected the current state of the race. Frustrations were particularly high on Threads, Meta’s X rival, where many users complained about seeing hopeful posts about a Kamala Harris win, and those urging voters to “stay in line” or touting early results as a “red mirage,” even after it was clear that Harris was losing ground to President-elect Trump in battleground states.
