Communities: a place to find mutuals and vibe.

Communities are now fully integrated across X! With this update: 👀 Community posts and replies are visible to your followers and other people on X. 🤝 Everyone on X can reply to Community posts– including non-members– but replies from Community members will be prioritized. ✏️ Your Community posts will still be available on X if the Community is deleted. Users can always delete their own posts.

Communities 🤝 Spaces starting today we’re rolling out the Community Spaces test where some admins + mods will be able to host Spaces in their Communities

The screen is open on the “Monday Book Club” Community and the Tweet composer is long pressed to reveal a menu of options. The Spaces icon is clicked to open the Space composer. A Space titled “Justice for audiobook fans” is started and invites are sent to several members of the Community. The screen is ripped away again to reveal the white background with the Twitter logo.

Communities are invite-only (also for now!) but admins and moderators have unlimited invites and members have 5 invites per Community (again, for now!) that are sent via DM so choose wisely (3/7)

ALT Alt Text Copy: Twitter logo and "Communities" appear on a dark blue background. An iPhone appears with a sample Skincare community page where we see hypothetical Tweets from community members. In the top right corner we see a toolbox button that when clicked reveals a drop-down menu. The "Invite Members" button is selected and brings up a list of suggested users with a button that reads "Invite" next to each. The second user on the list is selected and the "Invite" button changes to "Invited." Picture fades back to dark blue background and reads "Communities. Now Testing."

when you join a Community, you’ll see an option in the Tweet composer to Tweet to that Community vs. your followers (4/7)

ALT Alt Text Copy: Twitter logo and "Communities" appear on a dark blue background. A phone appears and has a Home Timeline on the screen. The Tweet Composer icon is clicked and opens the Tweet Composer. A button at the top that reads "Everyone" is clicked to reveal a drop-down menu of options that prompts the user to choose an audience. The "Space Enthusiasts" community is selected from the list, a Tweet is written and then Tweeted to that audience.

You know it @XSpaces! Time spent on Communities has grown +600% in the past year – with more than double the number of active Communities. Communities also have 3 times more posts and unique users posting compared to 2023. There are so many new members in Communities like Science, The Design Sphere, Cooking, and more. People are talking a lot about jobs on X too, right @XHiring?
It’s been non-stop over here @Live! So far this year, there have been more than 5 million Spaces created – for a total of 6.2 million hours of conversational content on X. @HiCommunities we’ve also *heard* that Communities are growing too! What say you?
