X Temporarily Restores Headlines to Posts with Links

X, previously known as Twitter, briefly reintroduced headlines to user posts containing links on Tuesday but seemed to revert back on Wednesday.

In October, X started removing news links and headlines from posts following Elon Musk’s statement that the changes would “greatly improve” aesthetics on the platform.

After the removal of headlines from posts, users had to click the image to view the title.
Some critics argued that the move caused confusion by concealing where a linked image would direct users.

The broader context: In late November, Musk promised that a “upcoming release” would bring back headlines by superimposing them on the image of the URL card.

Posts on the platform with links once again display headlines, although they appear differently than before.
During the temporary change on Tuesday, a headline appeared in small text at the bottom of the image on a URL card on a desktop.

Reading between the lines: The change on Tuesday did not extend to the iOS app, and on Android, headlines continue to appear under the image — similar to how they did before, according to The Verge.
