FAQ

What’s the difference between fxtwitter.com, fixupx.com and twittpr.com?

They all run the exact same worker and function identically.

• fxtwitter.com is the primary domain for twitter.com links
• fixupx.com makes it easy to fix x.com links (short .com domains are expensive)
• twittpr.com was designed for Discord’s sed-style replacement — send a twitter.com link, then type s/e/p to automatically edit it

How come embedding takes so long or doesn’t work in Telegram?

Telegram’s embedding servers sometimes never send a request to embed a URL, often due to their servers being overloaded. Try using Webpage Bot to clear the cached embed.

Be sure to replace the URL before sending your message, as embeds usually don’t update after you’ve already sent it.

What if I don’t want to display all images in a post?

You can pick a specific photo or video from a post using X/Twitter’s own URL syntax. Append /photo/N or /video/N where N is the image or video number (starting from 1):

https://fxtwitter.com/user/status/123456789/photo/3
https://fxtwitter.com/user/status/123456789/video/2

Is FxEmbed associated with [some other website that starts with fx]?

No. FxEmbed only operates on these domains:

• fxtwitter.com / twittpr.com
• fixupx.com (also xfixup.com)
• fxbsky.app

How does FxEmbed handle privacy?

We believe privacy is a fundamental human right and avoid collecting data that is unnecessary.

The TL;DR is that we only log errors and non-identifying information - we don’t share or sell any data or make it available to third parties.

We collect:

• Runtime errors: We will collect URLs and basic headers for errors that break embeds
• Account errors (X/Twitter): We collect only basic request information (post ID) to diagnose issues within our account proxy
• Basic analytics: We use Cloudflare Analytics Engine to collect basic, anonymous statistics that cannot identify individual users or posts. (i.e. bot user agent popularity, whether a request succeeded or not, etc.)

We do not collect:

• Who posts a link
• Who clicks on a link
• Any data that could identify a user or post (unless there’s an error, see above)

We also strip tracking parameters (like ?s and &t) from X/Twitter URLs to prevent them from being used for telemetry and advertising.

Can I self-host FxEmbed?

Yes! See the self-hosting guide for setup instructions.

What platforms does FxEmbed support as embed sources?

Currently:

• X/Twitter — via fxtwitter.com, fixupx.com, twittpr.com
• Bluesky — via fxbsky.app
