Musk's X removes copy link feature sparking frustration

ALBAWABA - Musk's X (formerly Twitter) is the talk of social media after the platform made controversial changes by reportedly removing or complicating the copy link feature. 

The feature is currently inconsistent, with some users reporting difficulty sharing videos, while others still see the option. 

According to IBT, many users had difficulties sharing content, including viral memes, sports highlights, and many more. On the contrary, others boasted about being able to use the feature because they didn't update the app.

An X user wrote, "You can’t copy the link of a video anymore dude wtf." Another wrote, "you can’t copy video links anymore, the video automatically starts playing." 

Speculation flooded X as the platform is yet to make an official statement regarding the change. Many believe the issue is an unintended bug affecting a group of users.

X users share workarounds and tutorials

Some made workarounds to bypass the new feature: Users can long-press on a video of their choice, then tap "Press video." Secondly, they can type anything, then undo and copy the video link. Many reported that this workaround has worked for them.
