These changes have now completed. Feel free to review the announcement for all details related to this change in how Twitter handles PNG images now.
This thread includes specific details on how these changes impact uploaded PNGs, including an infographic:
Keep in mind, most Twitter clients will continue uploading images as JPEGs. twitter.com and mobile.twitter.com are the primary ways to upload PNGs.
Try PNG8 now that we support it! It is limited to 256 colors, but matches JPEG in file size and is lossless.

Perfect for many illustrations, infographics, pixel art, text screenshots and black & white images.

Try tinypng.com or export w/ Photoshop as PNG 8-bit
We will continue to work to improve image quality while preserving performance.

Feedback and suggestions always welcome. Many items we have to investigate come from users that care. Thank you for caring!

[#Thread] 1/ This thread is on Tulsi Gabbard and the inordinate amount of support she appears to have online from #MAGA and pro-Trump accounts. Accounts that some believe to be part of an influence operation - Russian or otherwise. The findings are quite startling... #polbots
2/ I analysed several batches of tweets. Most of these are from between 15th and 20th of October. I analysed the hashtags #Tulsi2020 and #TulsiGabbard. I also analysed #QueenOfWarmongers, which refers to Tulsi's tweet where she called Hilary Clinton the 'queen of warmongers'
3/ Here is a link to that tweet, which was retweeted 79k times. I removed duplicates from my main sample of accounts tweeting on "Tulsi 2020" and "Tulsi Gabbard". This left around 10,000 unique accounts producing in the region of around 20,000 tweets.

[#Thread] To all those interested in [Arabic] Twitter, I have done an analysis of verified Twitter accounts in the Middle East (however broadly we interpret that term). I was mostly interested in majority Arabic speaking countries. #digitalhumanities
2/ Firstly special thanks to my RA @imaaaan_1 who collated the data. Methodologically, I was inspired by @luca who did a great post on verified users here > medium.com/startup-grind/… My aim was to focus in on specific Arabic-speaking countries, not all users :)
@imaaaan_1 @luca 3/ A note: I think verified users are important. Verification is increasingly used as a sign of credibility and legitimacy. Many people even pay for verified accounts. Whether we like it or not, Twitter as a social media company now has the ability to bestow upon users social

#thread 3 years ago I got into a bad car crash while being in a @uber on my way to the airport in Paris. I don’t know what happened exactly as I was asleep when it happened, but the driver ran at full speed into a bus on the highway, 100% his fault.
I woke up covered in blood in a crushed car, looking so bad (this pic is from a few days later, didn’t want to expose the gory hospital pictures) that the emergency doctors decided to block the highway and get me to the hospital via helicopter not to lose a minute.
Luckily I got out of it with just a few scars, the surgeon at the hospital did an amazing job. No brain concussion, eye was miraculously not permanently damaged.

Virginia's Air Board wasn't given page 1 of #environmentaljustice screening reports for proposed Atlantic Coast Pipeline industrial site before their Dec. meeting. This is important b/c p.1 shows combined effects of env. burdens & pop. vulnerability. 1/7 washingtonpost.com/local/virginia…
Combined effects are shown as "EJ Indexes," developed by @EPA to put co-located environmental & demographic data in geographic context. Here, missing pages show communities within 1, 2, & 5 mi of site are among Virginia's most vulnerable (top 1/3 to 1/10 depending on Index). 2/7
Air Board members only received second page of the report (I confirmed with @VirginiaDEQ), which shows environmental & demographic results separately, not in combination. Viewing results separately leaves out an important part of the #ACPipeline #EnvironmentalJustice story. 3/

Starting "Voices without Frontiers" #VoicesIWS
A program by @IWS_Network to promote awareness about the challenges & lessons learned by #Immigrant and #International #WomenInScience

I was born & raised in Chicoral, Colombia. A tiny town in the middle of the Andes Cordillera.
I attended Nuestra Señora del Rosario school, located in Espinal, 15Km away from Chicoral. Due to the high heat by noon, all schools start really early back home. This meant, I had to wake up at 5am to attend school every morning since I was 4 years old. #VoicesIWS
I did well in math and science in elementary and high school, so I chose to study clinical microbiology. Although coming from a low-middle income family, I was able to attend university, thanks to my parents’ effort to prioritize education over other commodities. #VoicesIWS
