Micro-blogging website X (formerly Twitter) will likely completely overhaul its design, especially the timeline, which will remove retweet and comment buttons.
According to technology website Mashable, a technology researcher from X has disclosed that the timeline design is being changed, and Elon Musk has also confirmed this.
Under the new change, X users will be able to comment or reply by swiping left and right on any image, and they will also be able to retweet the post.
It’s unclear how the video will be swiped left or right if it needs to be retweeted or commented on, but X’s timeline will likely be designed so that each post will be swipeable.
It is not yet clear how long the change will take, but it is likely to be introduced within the next six months.
However, X has undergone a number of changes over the past two years. Previously, its name and URL address were Twitter, which was also changed, while many features, including blue ticks, were bundled with a monthly fee.
X encrypted the likes button or option last month in June, and no third party can see the likes of others.
