X Just Hid Your Likes: Here's What You Need to Know
Remember the good ol' days of seeing how many likes your post got? Well, on X, those days are gone. The platform is now hiding who liked what.
Here's the breakdown:
Likes are private: You can't see who liked other people's posts, and vice versa.
Post-like counts remain: You can still see the total number of likes a post has, but not who liked it.
Goodbye, like-stalking: No more creeping on someone's likes! (But also no more public validation from your favourites, sigh.)
Why this matters:
The like game is over: Forget the pressure of racking up likes. Now you can focus on posting what you really like.
Less comparison, more connection: The focus might shift towards quality content and meaningful discussions.
Is this the end of the influencer era? Without public like counts, influencer marketing might need an overhaul.
This is a big change for X, and it remains to be seen how it will impact user behaviour. But, for now, it seems this feature is here to stay.
Canada Might Follow U.S. Lead on Chinese EV Tariffs
The U.S. hit China with tariffs on electric vehicles, and Canada is considering doing the same. Here's what you need to know:
Potential price hike for EVs: Tariffs could make electric vehicles more expensive in Canada.
Supporting Canadian jobs: These tariffs could encourage Canada to build more EVs, creating jobs.
Tesla price bump possible: Since Tesla imports EVs from China, tariffs could raise their prices here.
Why this matters: Electric vehicles are becoming more popular, and this trade fight could impact how much you pay for one. The Canadian government is deciding whether to follow the U.S. in imposing tariffs on Chinese-made electric vehicles. This could affect the price of EVs and potentially create more jobs in Canada's auto industry. Stay tuned for updates on this developing situation!
