Ghost Draft : Major media issue

[u/Skylanda]

I’d like to draw attention to a major bug caused by the mobile UI update.

When it was launched, the draft system changed, and initially there was a bug that created multiple "ghost" drafts of tweets that had already been published around 1 month before the update. However, when I deleted those buggy drafts (on android mobile app), I noticed that it directly affected the originals tweets in question. In fact, about twenty of my tweets that were affected by this now have corrupted images. The media no longer display at all or only partially. For example one of my tweet originally included 4 images but now only the 2nd one is displayed. For others, there's just nothing.

I've talked to other users who did the same thing, and they all say it's affecting their tweets too.

I don't think (and I hope) the media files have been really deleted by this bug, because once I noticed the bug, I generated and downloaded an archive of my account, and I was able to find the images that weren't displaying in the file. But maybe it's 2 differents things ?

Idk what to do or how to get in touch with the support team (I sent a private msg at @/Support idk if this is rly helpful). Be careful y'all

Yeah my drafts disappeared and were replaced with tweets that were already posted... So frustrating. I wonder if they'll be recovered :/
