Twitter launched its new edit feature for selected users
Recently, Twitter unveiled its new edit feature in a blog post in September 2022.
According to Twitter,
It’s true: Edit Tweet is being tested by our team internally. The test will then be initially expanded to Twitter Blue subscribers in the coming weeks. Given that this is our most requested feature to date, we wanted to both update you on our progress and give you a heads up that, even if you’re not in a test group, everyone will still be able to see if a Tweet has been edited.
Thanks to this new upgrade, Twitter users will be able to modify their tweets after they have been posted. However, this editing feature is, for now, in a trial mode and is only available in one country to Twitter Blue subscribers.
Furthermore, when someone edits their tweet, you can see it on the bottom left with the time stamp and date like “Last Edited 7:40 PM” in their tweet.
Will it be Beneficial for Twitter Users?
It will undoubtedly benefit Twitter users because they will be able to edit their tweets several times within 30 minutes of publication.
For example, if you’ve made a grammatical error or what you said was misinterpreted, you can change it for the better and let your audience know what you mean.
Additionally, you can change the hashtags as well if you forget them while posting them the first time.
To Summarize
Twitter has launched this update in a test mode so that they can see the impact it will have on Twitter users and the community.
As they said in the latest blog post,
“Like any new feature, we’re intentionally testing Edit Tweet with a smaller group to help us incorporate feedback while identifying and resolving potential issues. This includes how people might misuse the feature. You can never be too careful.”
Moreover, Twitter is only allowing 30 minutes of edit time because if they don’t set the time limit, the person who twitted can misuse the edit feature. For example, if their Tweet gets a huge number of shares, comments, or likes, they can edit it thereafter, changing the subject or meaning of the Tweet, resulting in a political or other offensive issues for other people.
