Is the “Edit” button coming soon? In any case, this is what Twitter fans have been waiting for years … Once again, Twitter shows us that it cares about the experience of its users. What they’ve been waiting for years: an edit button. This week, Twitter boss Jack Dorsey is emerging from silence. According to him, it is not planned at all. It will never even happen. An answer that cools some users who were waiting for this new development. The co-founder of Twitter seems to camp on his position. When Kim Kardashian suggested the idea in 2015, Jack Dorsey replied that it was a good idea. “We are always looking for ways to make things faster and easier.” Three years later, the American star is still waiting for him. And it’s not for want of insisting. She even took advantage of her presence at her husband Kanye West’s birthday to renew her request.
A “EDIT” BUTTON ON TWITTER: WHY IT WILL NOT BE DONE? An “Edit” button on paper is a great idea. We could then correct our faults, or add information that we missed. But, when you think about it, it may not be that obvious. Jack Dorsey sums up very well why: “We come from an SMS service. As you all know, when you send a message, you can’t cancel it. ” Imagine: someone writes a tweet, another retweet it, and the author changes it later. We would end up with two completely different tweets. Another concern, and not the least: it would cause a delay in publication. It’s not really in Twitter’s DNA. Since its creation in 2006, Twitter has stood out as a very responsive social network. With hot, direct reactions.
