"X Erases Twitter's Pre-2014 Images and Links"

X, formerly known as Twitter, is experiencing a glitch that is causing the loss of images and links in tweets published before December 2014. The problem was highlighted by users on social media and appears to affect posts with attached images or links converted through Twitter's URL shortener. Videos are not affected, but links to external sites are now displayed as text with non-functional URLs. The glitch has led to the disappearance of famous tweets, including Ellen DeGeneres' 2014 Oscars selfie. The cause of the glitch is unknown, but it is speculated to be an error or bug rather than an intentional cost-cutting move. Twitter has not responded to requests for comment.
