I don’t seem to recall this issue in the past - usually when I share a discourse topic via twitter, it will prefill the tweet with the post title. Now it’s prefilling with eg `Post #1` which is not that meaningful.

Steps to replicate, also here on meta:

- select the timestamp or 🔗 to display sharing popup
- select twitter button
- see the tweet with `post #1` instead of the title of the topic.

I can repro this. Added on my list.
