In 2017, Twitter doubled the character limit from 140 to 280 and launched the ‘thread’ feature, which allowed users to connect their tweets into a collected form. However, there is one change that people have been anticipating for a very long time, and Twitter does not budge about it. Twitter still does not have an edit button. The utopia of the edit button is a far-fetched reality as Twitter, time and again, has stated that it has no plans to provide this feature to Twitterati.

Recently, Twitter shared a post that might make it easy for its users to accept the fact that they still cannot rectify their mistakes and will have to either delete the tweet or live with the mistakes. Twitter wrote, “Your typo makes it original.”

Typographical errors, in long-from, are errors that manage to bypass our attention and get attached to the tweet, jolting the sanctity of the post. Twitter, through the tweet, is telling its users to appreciate the typos since they make the tweet original.

Have a look at the tweet here:
