It was back in January when Twitter announced about a new desktop design to its users. But no one was expecting some huge reveal. Later on, it is confirmed that Twitter is still testing the new desktop interface.
All social media apps try to change their interfaces to make it an easier experience for their users. They receive feedback from their users and on that base, they upgrade and redesign interfaces to ease customers and to make their experience worthwhile.
Twitter's new web design
Before this new updated version, back in January, another update was released where the layout was divided among two columns but because it was a limited update so not everyone saw it.
The home, Explore, Notifications, Bookmarks, Lists, Profile, and Messages are in a column with the option “More” expanding another set of options for you.
