X open sourced their algorithm

Ever wonder why X showed you that post? There’s a chain of 8 steps deciding it. Here it is — in 5 minutes, in plain English.

Added May 15, 2026 · Last analysed May 15, 2026 · via Hacker News · also on StackScope Discovery

StackScope records what new websites are built with, the week they launch. Most we find ourselves, by watching public internet infrastructure for brand-new sites; the rest come from Product Hunt, Hacker News and PeerPush. We crawled this one for its tech stack and scored it for launch readiness: DNS, security headers, SEO basics. This page is what we saw on 15 May 2026; the live site may have changed since.

Every technology below links to its own page: which other new sites launched with it. Vendors and agencies watch those pages with Stackdar and hear about new adopters the week they ship, from £15 a month.

X open sourced their algorithm still has work before launch. Visible gaps: missing several security headers, incomplete legal pages, and no robots.txt or sitemap.

Launched on Hacker News on May 15, 2026. The site is hosted on Vercel. The crawl picked up 6 technologies on this site, covering CSS frameworks, DNS providers, frameworks, and hosting. The stack includes Next.js, React, and Tailwind CSS.

For context, it's on one of the most common stacks we track, shared by 15,031 launches.
