Interesting.
If I go to twitter . com like always, and then copy the URL of a tweet I want to embed, I get this:
[tweet]
https://twitter.com/johnrabe/status/1696334468800258558[/tweet]
But if I simply replace the "twitter . com" with "x . com" (no spaces), it seems to work.

I think when you copy it on a mobile device the URL is x.com but on a laptop or desktop it is still coming up twitter.com; or sometimes it is coming up twitter or x. If you make sure the pasted link is x.com; it will embed properly.

It’s a bit confusing to me as if you try to mimic a still working example from a post made before the change, it doesn’t work. I’m kind of curious how the implementation is done as I thought phpBB renders tags at view time rather than post time, so is there like a cutoff timestamp used to correctly render both old and new posts?

I also thought that phpBB renders tags at view time, so that's strange. It could be cached (either on your local machine or on the twitter servers).
