What Is The New Change Made To Twitter/X?
One of the most liked features about Twitter used to be the quotes feature. Using this, users could see the number of quotes related to their posts. Earlier, the quotes button used to be just below the post.
But now, the option has been removed from there. For users to see the number of quotes related to their posts, they will have to click on the three dots at the top of their post and then select ‘View post engagements’.
This change comes after Elon Musk announced that he was thinking about removing block option from the social media platform. This faced a lot of criticism with users begging him not to. Twitter has been seeing multiple changes since Musk bought the platform.

Netizens are not okay with the new change on Twitter/X. Many have taken to X to express their reactions. Almost everyone agrees that Musk is making Twitter worse and worse. Many wrote that they will be leaving the app since the “damage is too much”. One user even suggested that they should move to Threads, the rival app of X.
However, many have also called the feature better and welcomed the change. Many have commented that this change is better. So overall, X’s new feature comes with mixed reactions from the users.

Hi Elon Musk, I'm leaving Twitter. The damage you have caused is enough. I won't be leaving alone, I'll be leaving with my family, friends and colleagues. We can't stand this anymore. Everyone just tweets for money nowadays. Bye!
