The changes keep on coming when it relates to X and this time it looks like the main timeline will be the next target. You soon may not be able to see engagement counts for posts on the main timeline anymore. in reply to a subscriber's post, X is looking to remove the action buttons that include interaction counts, such as likes, reposts, bookmarks, etc. These will then be replaced with gestures such as double tapping to like and others.
The company recently rolled out a change to this same feature on mobile where the engagement counts were rounded off and therefore showing less characters. This design tweak was done for readability's sake as well, but will now be done away with altogether on the timeline.It remains to be seen if X will proceed with this design tweak or if it will offer its users, namely the paid ones, an option on what they want displayed on their main timeline.
