On the right-hand side of the new Twitter design is the “Who to Follow” and ‘Trending’ segments. Picture banners are limited to the equivalent far left section.

Basically, the “Home Page” is separated and tidied up. It gives off an impression of being two primary segments instead of three. On the left is the primary feed of devotee posts.

Despite everything, it still stays vague how these changes will be organized or rolled out to all the users. There’s no specific timeframe announced about it.
