As Twitter recently introduced a new feature, ‘fleets’, where one can share images, photos and GIFs that will last for 24 hours, and asked internet users to share their feedback, netizens did not appear to be fully impressed. The new feature is very similar to WhatsApp’s, Facebook’s and Snapchat’s stories and the microblogging website began testing the feature in only a few countries, including India, Brazil and Italy.

With the new feature, tweeple can share their ‘fleeting’ thoughts or images, videos with their followers. Similar to other social media platforms, ‘fleets’ also disappear after 24 hours and netizens can not retweet nor like or comment on the stories. Twitter’s new addition left netizens rather disappointed as they accused the social media platform of ‘copying’ the feature. 

Netizens call Twitter 'copycat' 

While several internet users called Twitter a ‘copycat’, others also pointed out that they are unable to locate the feature despite updating the app. One internet user wrote, “Peer pressure in its full splendour”. Another user sarcastically wrote, “Wow. So innovative. Pioneer of this feature. Great”. “NOOOOOOOO PLEASE DON'T DO THIS TO MEEEEE,” added another.
