At long last Twitter’s edit button will make its debut, but how it will impact the platform is unclear and not everyone is for it.
Way back in April we reported that, yes, Twitter was actually working on an Edit button . According to Twitter, they had been working on it for a year by that point. At the time, it was only available to Twitter Blue Labs testers. That edit button is now on its way to the production side of Twitter according to a Tweet from today, September 1.
Even though Elon Musk made a promise to make edits a high priority, the fun fiasco that is the Twitter takeover tango he has been dancing did not have any actual bearing on the apparently long-standing plan. Overall, not that much information is available on the functionality change.
