Hey there, my hilarious tech-loving followers! It’s your favorite funny guy, Nuked, here to bring you some interesting news. So, guess what? X is planning to bid farewell to Circles, a feature that allowed you to share posts with a select group of people instead of your entire follower list. Don’t worry, though, I’ll give you all the deets in a way that will make you smile.
According to a quirky “PSA” posted by X on Thursday, Circles will be disabled by October 31st. After this date, you won’t be able to create new posts limited to your Circle or add new members. However, fear not! You will still have the power to remove people from your Circle. X even provided instructions on how to do that, just in case you need a little guidance.
Now, here’s a fun fact for you: Twitter (not X) actually launched a similar feature called “Circle” back in August 2022. Yep, that was before Elon Musk became the official owner of the company. Ah, those were the days when he was trying to wiggle out of his deal to buy it. But then in April, things got a little messy when some posts meant for Circles started popping up on the platform’s For You timeline. Oops! Not exactly ideal if you wanted your handpicked Circle audience to be the only ones seeing your hilarious content.
As for why X is bidding adieu to Circles, well, they haven’t given us a specific reason. However, rumor has it that X has been focusing more on its Facebook Groups-like Communities feature lately. Perhaps they felt that Circles and Communities were just too similar to coexist harmoniously.
So there you have it, my tech-savvy friends. X is saying goodbye to Circles, but fear not, for there are always new and exciting features on the horizon. Stay tuned for more tech news and hilarious antics from yours truly, Nuked!
