Twitter targets TweetDeck in its next move
Recently becoming a target of backlash with its moves, Twitter now sets its sights on TweetDeck.
Recently, Twitter has been tackling an array of challenges that led many of its users to search for alternatives. The origin of these complications can be traced back to when the social media platform started setting a limit on the number of daily posts that users could view. This restriction gave rise to widespread disruptions. Even though the platform experienced some enhancements over the weekend, the widely used TweetDeck has continued to remain troublesome for users unless they transition to the beta version. To proactively solve these issues, Twitter has rolled out an advanced version of TweetDeck.
The enhanced update is still labeled as the "TweetDeck Preview" within the application. To utilize the updated version, users need to actively choose this option from the menu in the original TweetDeck interface.

On making the shift, users can regain access to fundamental TweetDeck functions, particularly the invaluable list compilation features. Twitter assures its users that this transition process should be fairly straightforward, with saved searches, lists, and columns being smoothly transferred. Furthermore, the updated preview build now supports features like Twitter Spaces and polls, which were previously absent. However, the Teams function is currently not available.
Even though Twitter has not yet formally announced the end of the old version of TweetDeck, an employee indicated in a discussion thread that the shift to the preview version will be a permanent change. Nevertheless, many longtime users could potentially find themselves in a difficult position soon. As per Twitter Support, the access to this tool for power-users will be restricted to Twitter Blue subscribers shortly. They underscored that "in 30 days, users must be Verified to access TweetDeck". It's still unclear whether this change will be enforced for all users early in August, or if there will be a 30-day trial period before users are asked to subscribe to the new version of TweetDeck.
As the platform strives to mitigate the ongoing issues and refine TweetDeck, users might need some time to adjust to the changing environment of the platform.
