Twitter No Longer Displays Embedded Tweets on the Web
In a move that has some users confused, short message burst site Twitter has been found to remove embedded tweets from displaying on the desktop version of the service. This has also been the case with the Mac desktop version as well. The Mac version contains a hyperlink to see the embedded tweet in a web browser page, but the embedded tweet is not directly visible as it was intended below the main tweet.
The Twitter apps for iOS and Android both still feature the embedded tweets feature. Perhaps both apps will be subsequently altered to remove in for the next update of each app? For now though it creates a mixed presentation of tweets for Twitter users who cannot be quite sure what a fellow Twitter user will view when they look at their tweets with embedded tweets contained in them.
Twitter never seemed to blog about the embedded tweet feature when it was introduced and so similarly has so far not commented on why it was removed on certain platforms excluding mobile ones.
