Before, Twitter showed cropped images that didn’t support a 16:9 ratio. It was done to keep the feed proportional for smooth usage.

In October 2020, Twitter was alleged to be racially biased. This started when users posted an experiment of a single image with people from two separate racial groups, and the Tweets only displayed the white races. 

Although Twitter said they do not support racial or gender bias, the way image crops automatically can be harmful to some people. As sometimes, the cropped image displays parts of it that are unrelated to the Tweet context.
