Elon Musk's X's video link copy feature still works, despite viral claims

A viral post claiming Elon Musk's X (formerly Twitter) had disabled video link copying sparked widespread confusion, but it's just an April Fools' prank.

Users can still copy and share video links on the platform. The false claim led to heated debates, with some users advocating for the supposed change and others frustrated about not being able to share clips.

Fact-checks revealed the feature remains unchanged, and users can still copy links via the share button or right-click option.

The prank gained massive traction, with some posts racking up millions of views. The "USA News" account later admitted its post was an April Fools' joke, designed to drive engagement.

This incident highlights the importance of verifying information before sharing. Social media platforms are prone to misinformation, and it's crucial to fact-check claims, especially when they seem surprising or too good (or bad) to be true.

The X video link copy feature is still available, and users can share videos as they normally would. The platform hasn't made any official announcements about changing this feature.
