View counts for tweets are beginning to present up for some Twitter customers — no less than for their very own tweets. On December 1st, Musk promised the function can be coming for “all tweets, simply as view rely is proven for all movies,” an announcement he reiterated a week later including that it might be coming “in a number of weeks.”
One Verge workers member has began to see a counter when he clicks into his posts. Whereas a few other Twitter customers have reported getting the function as properly, it doesn’t appear to be obtainable to everybody but (for instance, at time of writing I’m presently not seeing view counts on any tweets in addition to movies). My coworker additionally says that he’s presently not in a position to see view counts on different customers’ tweets.

In its present state, the function isn’t offering any new info. You’ve lengthy been in a position to turn on analytics for your account, and see what number of “impressions” your tweets had been getting. Nonetheless, doing so does require clicking on an analytics button; the view counter places it proper in your face.
It’s unclear whether or not Musk meant for customers to have the ability to see what number of views different peoples’ tweets are getting. His remark concerning the function being “identical to movies,” whose view counts are public for different customers, does make it seem to be you need to be capable to see what number of views different peoples’ tweets had been getting. We’d ask Twitter for clarification on the matter, however it now not has a communications division. Musk hasn’t just lately tweeted concerning the function.
