LOL: Users Make Fun Of Twitter’s Redesign With Hilarious Memes
By Izza Sofia, 19 Jun 2017

We recently wrote about Twitter’s makeover of its mobile and desktop platforms, which is designed to make it faster and easier to use.
But many users have taken to Twitter to mock the redesign. The hilarious memes include a picture of Spongebob Squarepants placed alongside a rounded version of the cartoon character, and a comparison of Barack Obama and Donald Trump.
The redesign includes round profile icons, and retweets and likes are shown in real time. However, many suggest that the new design appears “fake” when compared to the original one.
The round profile icon has also affected accounts that have set their display photos to fit into the square icon.
One user tweeted, “Old Twitter vs the new update [that] Twitter tells you not to worry about”, with a picture of a retro Coco-Cola machine, beside a picture of a modern high-tech version. Another suggests that Twitter should have a new logo, featuring a rounder bird.
Take a look at some of the funny comments below.
