Twitter’s edit button really is coming

We’ve heard murmurs for ages, however evidently the edit button is definitely, lastly coming to Twitter.

As introduced in a blog post, the staff is presently testing internally with the intent to then roll out to Twitter Blue customers. The submit doesn’t observe whether or not the characteristic shall be broadly out there or solely to Twitter Blue customers. As soon as rolled out, there are some things that customers might want to know:

• You solely have half-hour to edit your Tweet
• You’ll be capable of edit a couple of occasions (no matter meaning in numbers?) throughout that half-hour
• Edited Tweets shall be labelled as such, with the historical past nonetheless seen

All of those make sense, because the integrity of a dialog and the context of retweets may dramatically change after the unique is edited. As a brand new, premium characteristic; it will make sense to supply this to paid customers just like the customized navigation bar however I hope it’s broadly out there long term.
