When Insider tried searching for Threads links on Twitter on Tuesday, there were no results.
Whether it's a bug or intentional, Twitter is currently limiting searches for Threads links, despite the "URL:" search operator still working for other websites.
For now, there is a workaround for those wanting to find Threads links on Twitter.
This isn't the first time Twitter blocked search results for competing platforms — or blocked posting links to rival platforms altogether.
In April, Twitter users were unable to interact with tweets that had links to Notes, a platform created by Substack to rival Twitter.
