Twitter provides an excellent platform for having meaningful conversations and discussions on various messages. You can comment, tweet, retweet or even quote any tweet if you think it’s important. And in this guide, we will discuss the latter. In other words, thanks to the instructions given, you could easily find out who all cited a specific tweet. But before that, it’s important to discuss the difference between the cited tweets and the retweets on Twitter.
Retweets are simply sharing other tweets on your own page. So if you come across an interesting tweet and want subscribers to know about it too, you simply retweet it. Simply put, take it as a copy and paste of tweets from one place to another. The tweets cited on Twitter, on the other hand, are somewhat different.
These types of tweets also allow further discussion and comments. You can therefore call the tweets cited as “retweet with comments”. That’s not it, you can’t comment on retweets. But any comments made on them will directly reach the original message and not the person who retweeted. However, with the tweets cited, you can start a new conversation with the user who initiated the tweet.
Now that we’ve clarified the differences, let’s take a look at a handy tip for easily finding the tweets cited on Twitter. Also see our guide if you want to disable the browsers built into Twitter and Facebook.
How to easily find cited tweets on Twitter
The tweets cited on Twitter are a great way to find out how the public reacts to this.

But not all of the tweets cited can generate favorable opinions. This is where its comments section comes in handy (something missing from its counterpart, i.e. retweets).
But here’s the rub. How would you know how many times a particular tweet has been quoted? You can easily see the number of comments, retweets and likes on a tweet, but unfortunately, the same cannot be said of the tweets cited on Twitter.
