Microblogging platform Twitter has restored its old version of TweetDeck after it was dumped for a new version.
The official Twitter Support account posted on Monday, July 3 that “We have just launched a new, improved version of TweetDeck,” with the disclaimer that after 30 days, only Twitter Blue subscribers will have access to the application.
However, as of the time of filing this report, neither Elon Musk Twitter CEO Linda Yaccarino nor any of the bird app’s official Twitter account has made any announcements about the reintroduction of the old TweetDeck.
According to Mashable, that the current version did not keep important features like the Activity Tab and TweetDeck Teams, which allow users to share accounts without providing passwords, making it controversial with users.
TweetDeck2.0 added various functionalities, including video docking and a Tweet composer feature.
TweetDeck was first launched as a free, independent app in 2008 before it was acquired by Twitter in 2011.
TweetDeck, which is geared at Twitter power users and professionals, enables users to view tweets in a variety of customisable columns. No one is thrilled for the app to become a paid feature given that it has been free for 15 years.
Meanwhile, as of the time of filing this report, it is uncertain if the current TweetDeck version will be available to users for a long period of time.
