      I wonder what makes that tweet's link the top-of-page trending link? Is that the moment the algo decided it 'went viral'?

        So weird. Hiroshima is a 200k+ Twitter trend, but the link at the top of the page is from this tweet: macht0412/736213764207312896

          This random guy with 105 followers probably doesn't even realize his link has likely been clicked on by thousands of people.

              You can't retweet the link at the top of a Trending page, so no one sees it to muck with unless you copy and paste it out of the page.
