Twitter Support stated on Sunday that it will “no longer permit free marketing of certain social media networks on Twitter.”

“Specifically, we will remove accounts created exclusively for the purpose of promoting other social networks, as well as content including links or usernames for the following platforms: Facebook, Instagram, Mastodon, Truth Social, Tribel, Nostr, and Post,” the statement continued.

The message stated that “cross-posting content from any social media site” will continue to be permitted.

And “links or usernames to social networking networks not specified above,” such as Parler, TikTok, or LinkedIn, are still allowed, according to the statement.

Twitter did not explain why these seven domains were on the ban and others were not.

Twitter also said it was banning promotions of third-party social media link aggregators such as Linktree.

We recognize that many of our users are active on other social media platforms. However, we will no longer allow free promotion of certain social media platforms on Twitter.

Former Twitter chief executive Jack Dorsey replied to the tweet, simply asking: “Why?” and in another post claimed the move “doesn’t make sense”.

And “links or usernames to social networking networks not specified above,” such as Parler, TikTok, or LinkedIn, are still allowed, according to the statement.
