Ban on sharing links for Facebook, Instagram, and other social media platforms on Twitter

 Twitter has announced a ban on posting links to Facebook, Instagram, and other rival social media sites.

 The social media company says accounts that direct users to alternative platforms will be suspended.

Advertisements will be allowed on Twitter despite the ban on links to social media sites.

In a statement issued by Twitter, it has been said that we know that many of our users are active on other social media platforms as well, but now Twitter will not allow free promotion of any social media platform.

The company will delete content that is linked to accounts on social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, Mastodan, Truth Social, Tribal, and Noster, the statement said.

In its statement, Twitter announced the new ban, citing some of these websites as strong alternatives, but did not include the name of the professional networking platform LinkedIn and China's short video platform TikTok.

In a statement issued by Twitter on Sunday, it has been clarified that accounts that are used primarily to promote content on other social media platforms will be suspended, however, from other social media websites. 'Cross posting' will still be allowed.
