Manage your interests within your profile

The list of interests associated to your profile are usually derived from your X (formerly Twitter) activity.

Interests are comprised of a list of keywords, which enables X to target content at you based on what you frequently post about or engage in.

It’s worthwhile monitoring what keywords are listed in your interests section. These may be prompting content to appear on your feed which you would rather not see.

To see your current interests

You can go to X's privacy settings (opens in new tab). Deselect any words which may prompt gambling related content to be targeted at you.

As well as unticking any gambling-related words, consider deselecting sports or gaming-related content. For example, 'football' or 'online gaming'.
