Twitter has found a new way for users to switch between the feeds. Today, the social media platform announced that it has rolled out a new design for Home on iOS, bringing two tabs with one showing top tweets and another showing chronological tweets.

Twitter is working on another feature, and this time, it's something that the users have been requesting. According to the latest information, the social media platform is currently testing the downvote button, which basically allows the users to "unlike" a tweet.

Have you seen Twitter users who write a string of tweets on a single topic? There's no feature in Twitter that allows for long posts, though Twitlonger somewhat helps with this. Fortunately, Twitter seems to be working on a feature related to this.

Twitter has finally released its Facebook Groups-like feature for Android users. Last September, the social media platform introduced Twitter Communities for iOS and web users. However, Android users could only access it by using the web version or a native app. 

Twitter Spaces is getting more popular as the company does put effort into improving the feature on the social media platform. If you are not familiar with it, it's something Clubhouse-inspired by allowing the users to have a voice-based chat room to talk about stuff. From now on, users will also be able to record and share Spaces that they have created, so anyone who missed out on the live broadcasts can still listen to them.

Tiktok is now testing the Explore tab on the mobile apps and the interface looks like TikTok that has a vertical scrolling feed. The company gets the inspiration from TikTok and we think it wouldn't surprise that vertical scrolling becomes a standard feature on the platform.

2021 will be ending soon and there are many things that have happened. One of the best ways to refresh our memory is none other than Twitter (sorry, no more YouTube Rewind) and for this year, we will be taking a good look at #OnlyOnTwitter Malaysia 2021.

In 2021, a service that trended for a time would be audio chat rooms. One of them is Twitter Spaces, which seems to be the more popular choice now. Its audio chat rooms previously had no recording function, but that's no longer the case.

For a social media platform like Twitter, there's always a need to improve so that it can keep users. The company has been working on a bunch of new features for the service. One of them seems to be a downvoting feature for tweets.

By now, some of you may have tuned in to a Twitter Space or two. If you haven't, it's essentially Twitter's answer to Clubhouse, an audio chat room feature that lets you host live podcasts. The features big downside is that there's no in-app feature to record it, but that could be added soon.
