After many platform changes, X again reintegrates link previews after a short-lived fight trying to discourage users from linking to outside sources.
Posts on X containing links will now offer a preview with a basic headline displayed over the article image rather than the previously messy article preview.
While the headline in linked posts may not be as clean as a simple image, it will allow creators to better compose their posts without wasting valuable characters, instead directing followers to tap on the link for more information.
There is no way of knowing when this new X feature will be rolled out to all users, so creators should keep an eye out and plan accordingly to maintain consistency and avoid messy and overcomplicated posts that should simply be guiding viewers towards links.
