X is reportedly testing changes to the way it handles uploads with links in its app, particularly those accessed via iOS.
This change allows users to still see the "Like", "Reply", and "Repost" button icons.
Quoting The Verge, Monday, usually when user X clicks on a post with a link, a new web page will open and cover the entire original post.
It turns out this results in fewer people clicking the “Like” icon or interacting with related content.
Most users may not even return to the social media platform after clicking on a link that directs them to an external source.
