The Windows 10 ecosystem has a number of excellent third-party Twitter clients. Two are Tweet It! And Aeries, with the former getting a relatively minor update with some nice UI enhancements. Today, Aeries is getting its own update, except this time the number of fixes and enhancements are a little more significant.
For those interested in what is coming in Aeries 2.3 (full changelog is about 2x as big) – https://t.co/IrDv1Jez4D
