How to share Twitter video without retweeting

To share video on Twitter without retweeting, follow these steps-

1. Open a tweet that has a video.
2. Click the share button and select Copy link to Tweet.

If you have got a simple tweet, there is no need to click the date/time of the tweet.

Now, click the “share” like button and select Copy link to Tweet.

Then, you need to compose a tweet for your profile. In the compose section, write your desired text, and paste the previously copied URL. It might look something like this-

You need to remove the additional parameter (?s=20) from the URL and write this-

/video/1
