tweeted

Tweeted refers to the past tense of the verb "to tweet," which is the primary action performed on the social media platform Twitter, now known as X. When someone tweeted, they posted a message, known as a tweet, on their profile. These messages were historically limited to 280 characters, although this limit has been extended for some users. A tweet could contain text, links, images, videos, or GIFs. The act of tweeting allowed users to share thoughts, news, opinions, and engage with others in real-time. The term "tweeted" signifies the completion of this communication act. It implies that a user has successfully published content to their X feed, making it visible to their followers and potentially the wider public. The context of "tweeted" usually indicates a past event, referring to a specific message that was sent out. For example, "The politician tweeted about the new policy" indicates that a message concerning the policy was published on the politician's X account at some point in the past. The concept is central to the functionality and historical use of the platform.
