Better Preview

FB Messenger previews for any x.com / twitter.com links are completely borked.

Use this service to create links that will show previews on Facebook

Usage

• Fastest Method

1. Download the Twit iOS/MacOS shortcut here
2. In the Twitter iOS App, use Share via... and then click on the Twit shortcut. This will automatically replace the link and open up the Messenger Share View

• Manual Method Replace x.com with twit.rip in any tweet link -> https://twit.rip/:username/status/:tweet_id

eg. -> https://twit.rip/leostera/status/1753619722132750413

How it works

There are two components to this project.

• twimage uses Twitter OEmbed API to get the metadata associated with a given tweet and then generates the preview image using the Vercel OpenGraph Image Library.
• nx is a Cloudflare Worker running on a custom domain that "constructs" the meta tags necessary for FB to generate a proper link preview

Upcoming Features

• Better UI for the Link Preview Images
• Parsing images within tweets and using that as the preview image
