5 Ways to Clean Your X Feed in 2026
While NoGrok handles the specific annoyance of AI-baiting spam, curating a truly high-quality feed on X requires a multi-faceted approach. Here are our top tips for 2026.
1. Aggressive Muting
Don't just block; mute. Muting words is a powerful way to filter out noise. Go to Settings > Privacy and safety > Mute and block > Muted words and add terms like:
- "Promoted"
- "Crypto"
- "NFT"
- " giveaway"
2. Use 'Following' Tab Only
The 'For You' algorithm is designed for engagement, which often means rage-bait and spam. Make it a habit to stick to the 'Following' tab to see content only from people you actually chose to follow.
3. Turn off Reposts
If you follow someone for their insights but they retweet too much noise, you can turn off Reposts for that specific user. Go to their profile, click the three dots, and select "Turn off Reposts".
4. Verify Your Phone Number
Ironically, verified accounts (Premium) often get flooded with spam notifications. Ensuring your own account is secure with a verified phone number or 2FA can sometimes help the algorithm categorize you as a "real" user, potentially filtering some incoming junk.
5. Install NoGrok
Of course, for the specific plague of "Hey Grok" spam, nothing beats a dedicated tool. Install NoGrok to silence the bots instantly.
