Can we get an embed tweet functionality added to the forums?

You say it like people couldnt have just screenshotted a tweet and embedded the picture before... All this does is cuts out the middle man.

Obviously the same rules apply to everything, anything embedded that breaks the rules will be dealt with by the moderating team

Can't see it anyway, ublock or duckduckgo got rid of it lol. Hate all that social media nonsense, there's nothing in a tweet worth quoting.

@antijoke that's visible to me on mobile .

Well, you're doing it right... It uses JS to populate/identify the embedded item so you might just need to refresh the page once you have posted it.

It's using twitters JS, I've not looked into it, but I doubt it continues to look, it'll likely just do it once on page load

Hmmm weird, it’s loaded now. Thanks

IronWarrior · 23 May 2018 at 20:37

Awesome, been wanting this for ages.

Thanks for adding it.

Sweet. It works.

The like button would have been much more useful. Saves the 100 posts of people quoting something to say "+1"

I approve of the Twitter addition though. Why not?
