Meanwhile, the Twitter workforce metabolizes what future buyer Elon Musk addressed to them last week, the blue canary platform currently run by Parag Agrawal, which is busy developing a status update feature, would launch two major tests. , including one that would provide for tweets to be edited in special circumstances.

As is known, Twitter has been working for some time on the tweet editing function (with an attached edit history): in the meantime, something similar has just been introduced, according to leaker Mukul Sharma, as part of a test involving some users, albeit in a particular case, or if you are about to publish a tweet that may be offensive, inappropriate, or inciting bullying.

Specifically, in these cases, a notice would appear explaining that some users are being asked to review the potentially harmful or offensive responses, followed by the indication of the “offending” text and a triplet of options below. Of these, one would provide for continuing to post the tweet as it was, the other for deleting it, and the last, in fact, for modifying it: in addition, the possibility would also be offered to notify the platform and its reviewers of their eventual misjudgment (that is, specifying that you are not posting anything offensive).

Also from Mukul Sharma, comes the notification of another test in progress by Twitter, which would allow, in consulting some statistics (comments, retweets, likes) of the tweets from the notification area, to interact with the tweets directly from that point, by acting on the “Like” / “I do not like” buttons.

According to Tecit, who reports the discoveries of the leaker Alessandro Paluzzi, a function that Twitter continues to work on would still be unedited, namely that of the Vibes, which would allow you to update your status on the mobile side and on the Twitter web. In this case, a new icon relating to the function would have appeared in the tweet composer, suggesting that the status update, a bit like the “what are you thinking / activity” function of Facebook, could be part of a new tweet. However, it will also be possible to update the statuses from the profiles page, in the style of the deducted Instagram spin-off, Threads. Also in relation to the function of updating the status, users could discover those of others and connect to them.
