Twitter now lets people make and join groups like Discord. The company announced this new feature today. It is called Communities. Twitter wants people to connect over shared interests. This is different from following individual accounts.

People can start a Community about any topic. Sports teams, hobbies, local news are examples. Community creators set the rules. They decide who can join and what gets posted. Members see group conversations right on Twitter.
Anyone can find and ask to join a Community. Approval depends on the creator. Once in, members post tweets visible only to the group. They can also talk in a special chat section. This chat looks like messaging apps. It lets people talk back and forth easily.
Twitter hopes this builds stronger user connections. People often form groups around topics on the platform already. Communities makes this simpler and more organized. The company sees it as a key part of future interaction.
A Twitter executive explained the move. “People want places to belong online,” they said. “Communities gives them that space on Twitter.” The feature is rolling out globally now. It works on phones and computers.
