X glitch wipes out most pictures and links tweeted before December 2014

X is failing to display images and expanded links in older posts, with the problem appearing to affect tweets published before December 2014. Tom Coates highlighted the issue on a Saturday, after a Brazilian vtuber, @DaniloTakagi, had pointed it out a couple of days earlier. The glitch removed the picture from Ellen DeGeneres's 2014 Oscars selfie, though that image was restored later that night. The @Support account said on Monday, "We fixed the bug, and the issue will be fully resolved in the coming days." The article links the cutoff to Twitter's 2016 "enhanced URL enrichment" changes, and X did not respond to requests for comment beyond an automated message.
