i don’t know if this is an issue regarding Discourse exactly or if it’s coming from twitter API but I wanted to share this little bug, when we share a tweet from a account that has a underscore in its username, the link is broken on Discourse, here is an example :

`https://twitter.com/_miss_ives_/status/923667180201414658`  
[https://twitter.com/\_miss\_ives\_/status/923667180201414658](https://twitter.com/_miss_ives_/status/923667180201414658)

  

Another example

[https://twitter.com/\_FARTIGAS\_/status/914070638561767425](https://twitter.com/_FARTIGAS_/status/914070638561767425)

when it’s not coming from twitter, a link with underscore works fine :
