When Twitter announced the option to edit posted tweets last fall, users welcomed the news with jubilation. After all, on all the other social networks it is possible to edit posts, why not on the blue platform?
However, the jubilation quickly gave way to criticism, when Elon Musk let it be known that the function would indeed arrive, but only for paid users. In fact, even today, only Twitter Blue subscribers have the ability to edit a tweet that has already been published.
Twitter: Tweets editing extended to one hour, with editing history
But there is a little news. Until now, tweets were editable only within 30 minutes of publication. This is to prevent entire discussions from being manipulated and to ensure the transparency of public conversations.
From now this time frame has been doubled. On the Twitter Blue support pageIndeed, the company explains that it is now possible to edit posts within an hour of publication.
We remind you that Twitter, just like Facebook, returns the history of changes to users who view a post. This maneuver is also essential to avoid manipulation of entire discussions, especially in the event of legal disputes between two parties.
