X announces the addition of a new feature where users can choose to sort the replies of each post according to their preferred criteria: Most Relevant, Most Recent, and Most Liked. This feature is being gradually updated for iOS users and on the web starting from yesterday.
The sorting options for replies are expected to address the issue that many X users encounter in Twitter posts that are messy. This is because the top-ranked replies often consist of spam posts from verified accounts, as X’s system prioritizes displaying replies from verified blue checkmark accounts over regular accounts. It is worth noting that the setting to sort replies must be done for each post individually and cannot be set as a default in Settings.

TLDR: X introduces a new feature allowing users to sort post replies by relevance, recency, or popularity, addressing the issue of cluttered Twitter posts with spam replies.
