Strange behaviour on This Site prompt me to ask, have the social media platforms’ algorithms failed?
This Writer woke up today (November 5) to find that Vox Political had 514 visitors within a single hour, between 3-4am (or thereabouts; the graph is quite hard to read). It had another spike of around 400 visitors between midday and 1pm.
I’m wondering if any other political websites like VP had the same experience. If so, is it because a platform like Facebook or X (formerly Twitter) let its algorithms stop working momentarily, and these numbers are what we would be getting, if not for their constant interference?
I’m just putting it out there.
