People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No bullying or international politcs
- Be excellent to each other.
- Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.

MODERATORS
I'm a millennial and I strongly prefer editing. It's much easier on the recipient not to have to cross-reference your correction with your message, and it usually doesn't result in a separate notification ping.
Notification ping? You guys don't keep your phone on silent?
You just outed yourself as a boomer ๐
My phone vibrates for text messages, but even if it doesn't there's no need for two notifications in the tray if a simple edit is possible.
Also I'm talking about the recipient, not myself. I don't know what their settings are necessarily.
I prefer editing if and only if the recipient can see the edit history.
