It seems twitter is testing a 24-hour Stories-type format called "Fleets".

I'm not sure why Twitter thinks this differentiates it from other social media. Oh, wait, it doesn't.

they’ll disappear entirely after 24 hours.

hmm... You are aware that it's the Internet, nothing disappears entirely, everything is replicated, archived, scrapped ...

This is an odd thing for twitter to undertake.
Most of twitter's users have called for one thing for some time, an edit facility, and it's want one thing, but twitter gives them something readily available everywhere else.
