Twitter Previews Updated Tweet Detail Display

With the addition of latest components like view and bookmark counts, the tweet particulars display has change into very cluttered, which Twitter itself is conscious of, and is working to deal with.

As we speak, Twitter designer Andrea Conway has shared a glimpse of the most recent prototype of its up to date tweet element formatting – i.e. what you see after you’ve tapped on a tweet – which presents all the related tweet information in a extra streamlined, tidy method.

As you possibly can see, the brand new tweet element view seems similar to how tweets are displayed in the primary timeline, with fewer titles describing every factor, taking over much less area. The brand new format would additionally introduce an choice to type your tweet replies, which might make it simpler to scan by related feedback based mostly on engagement, time, and so on.

Right here’s a side-by-side comparability of the check and present codecs:

The view depend has been moved as much as the highest, under the username, together with the tweet date (time now not displayed on the primary tweet window), whereas retweet and quote counts are mixed, and replies, a key focus of Twitter’s up to date algorithm (and its ad revenue share program), get their very own depend within the particulars display.

The format, as famous, is just about the identical as how tweets seem in the primary feed, with some slight tweaks, which ought to make it a smoother expertise when switching between the 2 shows.

And you continue to get all the identical information, with the additional knowledge obtainable by tapping on the related part.

It’s not finalized as but, but it surely seems like a greater model of the tweet format, which can be pretty native to how individuals already work together with tweets.

And it’s undoubtedly a greater approach to current all the brand new information carried out by the Twitter 2.0 crew.

This might change, however given the speed of growth in Elon Musk’s crew, and his more recent emphasis on shipping more changes, I’d count on this new format to be launched shortly.
