Social Media Component

Custom component for Task Builder 2 that allows you to display a social media post. You can configure the poster's name and avatar image, and the image text content of the post. You can then optionally allow responses to the post - reposting (i.e. sharing or retweeting), reaction (with an emoji) and commenting. You can also configure posts to already have some comments visible.

This was used in a recent real-world study into misinformation and disinformation on social media:
