A new discovery tier — web mentions, not curated seed lists — added 324,523 X profiles. They verify a quarter as often and have a sixth as many mega-accounts.
820,548 X profiles hold 47.5 billion followers between them. Gini coefficient: 0.94 — beyond Brazil or Russia's wealth inequality, the highest on record.
A 2,462-account X audit found 63% fill in location — Common Crawl accounts (65%) beat curated, notable ones (51%), flipping this series' usual pattern.
We matched X profiles against Wikidata notability. At the same follower count, 9% of notable people carry the blue check — versus 46% of GitHub developers.
Job title, employer, 'opinions my own,' a link — the classic X bio is fading. Newer arrivals leave it blank, a pattern seen in two independent groups.
X's help page still says you can follow 5,000 accounts. We measured 325,553 real profiles: nobody small enough to be capped ever gets past ~7,500.
We pulled 325,553 public X profiles and ranked them by lifetime posts. The top account has 131.6M posts. Ten of the next twelve are Japanese brand bots.
We tried to count AI-lab mentions across 697,439 X bios. Two-word lab names collapse into noise; only single-token names like OpenAI or DeepMind hold up.
Cuban's employee-stock push spiked on Google Trends within 48 hours. We pulled the real reaction across five platforms — it's a different story each time.
Three ways to scrape Twitter/X in 2026 — DIY Python, no-code tools, or a structured API for public profiles, posts, and timelines — with the legal basics.
