Twitter, or should we say X, is the place where tweets fly, memes spread, and opinions get stirred. If you’ve ever posted a tweet and found yourself wondering, “Who liked this masterpiece?”—well, you’re not alone. However, since Twitter (now X) has made likes more private, finding out who’s giving your post a thumbs-up (or heart, really) isn’t as straightforward as it used to be. But don’t worry, we’re still going to walk you through it.
If the Tweet is Yours: How to Check Who Liked It
If the tweet belongs to you, things are a little simpler. Here’s how you can check who liked it—keeping in mind the new privacy settings:
- Open the Twitter (X) App or Website: First things first, open the app or website and navigate to the tweet you're curious about.
- Click on the Likes Count: Beneath your tweet, you'll see a heart icon with a number next to it—this shows how many people liked your tweet. Click on that number to dig deeper.
- View the List of Users: Once you click on the likes count, a list will pop up, showing the profiles of everyone who liked your tweet. From here, you can see the names, avatars, and sometimes even some familiar faces!
It’s that simple! Now you can see who’s giving your words a thumbs-up, and maybe even spot a few Twitter celebs in the mix.
If the Tweet is Someone Else's: How to See Who Liked It
Ah, the tricky part! If the tweet belongs to someone else, here’s where things get a bit more complicated:
- Go to the tweet: You’ve found that amazing tweet (maybe it’s hilarious, insightful, or controversial) and you want to see who’s liking it. So far, so good.
- Click the Heart Icon: Under the tweet, you’ll see a heart icon, along with a number showing how many people have liked the post.When you click the heart again, the like will disappear.
- Privacy Limits: Here’s the catch: Due to X’s privacy settings, even if you click the likes count, you won’t always see the names or profiles of everyone who liked the tweet.
You can learn more about the impact of privacy settings in this detailed post about why you can't see someone's likes.
People Want to Know Who Liked Their Tweets... But Why?
So, with all this privacy drama, why do people still care about who likes their tweets? Why are we so obsessed with the tiny hearts of approval? Well, the answer is pretty simple:
It’s all about validation.
Like it or not, a "like" is a virtual high-five. It’s a little dopamine boost that makes you feel good. Who doesn’t like a little positive reinforcement? Whether it’s your deep thoughts or a funny joke, getting a like feels like you’ve been seen. And yes, we all crave a bit of attention from time to time.
A hint of social strategy.
If you're using Twitter (or X, whatever we're calling it now) to build a following, likes are a clue to what content resonates with your audience. If you see a pattern in what gets liked, you might tweak your content strategy to match what your followers seem to enjoy the most. It’s like a social media version of reading the room!
Curiosity.
Sometimes it’s just pure human curiosity. People want to know who’s engaging with them, whether it’s a friend, a fan, or maybe even that mysterious stranger. Why? Because, well, it’s interesting. It’s digital sleuthing at its finest!
But Before You Learn About Others’ Likes, Aren’t You Curious About Your Own?
We spend so much time checking out what others like, but have you ever wondered about your own Twitter likes? After all, your likes tell a story about what interests you, what catches your attention, and even what you might want to revisit down the road. But here’s the catch—unless you're diligently saving your likes in some organized way, your timeline can quickly become a chaotic mix of random posts.
But what if you could do more than just scroll through your likes?
- Search instantly: Find any liked tweet in seconds—no more endless scrolling.
- Organize your likes: Transform random posts into a meaningful archive.
- Use for personal projects: Curate content, do research, or gather inspiration.
- Export with ease: Back up your likes or integrate them into your workflow (CSV, JSON, Markdown).
- Take control of your digital footprint: Turn chaotic Twitter history into a powerful, organized resource.
