X (formerly known as Twitter) has announced that its Community Notes program now has over 1 million contributors

This feature allows users to add extra context to posts that may be misleading or unclear. 

It’s part of Elon Musk’s vision to give power back to the users instead of relying only on a central moderation team.

Other social platforms, such as Meta and TikTok, are now testing similar tools, which suggests that X’s approach might be working. 

However, the system isn’t perfect. 

A report found that many helpful notes on political posts never appear because contributors couldn’t agree.

Still, having one million people involved means the platform is moving toward a more community-led moderation style, which could reduce costs and increase transparency—if it works fairly and consistently.
