X (previously Twitter) has finally fixed the glitch that restricted users from viewing posts that were posted before December 2014. The bug, which was discovered over the weekend, was the reason behind the chaos that happened on the micro-blogging platform.

A well-known tweet from comedian and television star Ellen DeGeneres was among the content that was impacted. In the post, DeGeneres was shown in the audience with stars Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence at the 2014 Academy Awards event. Even though DeGeneres' tweet's image was eventually fixed, a response revealed that not all users had access to their photographs yet.

The removal of the image appears to have happened at the same time as Twitter's 2016 introduction of "enhanced URL enrichment." The HTML title and description of a website were now provided in the Tweet payload, along with Operators for better content matching.
