Elon Musk announced the change in a post on X, saying that the platform made the change to protect users from scrutiny and attacks over what they liked.
X is now hiding what posts users like from other users.
The news was made official in a post Wednesday morning from Elon Musk as the site update was being rolled out.
“Important change: your likes are now private,” Musk said, quoting an explanation posted by the company’s engineering account on Tuesday.
According to the post, users will still be able to see which posts they have liked themselves and who liked their own posts, but not who liked someone else’s posts.
On Wednesday, the tab on most users’ profiles showing what posts they had liked had disappeared.
