Eating Disorder Twitter. A corner of the internet where eating disorders are not only accepted but actively encouraged. Users share tips for extreme weight loss, thinspiration ("thinspo") and motivate each other to stay as thin as possible.
Since edtwt did not exist in the 1940s, women read magazines for their weight loss tips. (Actual quote from a thinspo thread)

A community on twitter where people talk about eating disorders, posts pictures of "thinspo" (pictures of thin people to inspire disordered eating habits to lose weight) or "fatspo"(pictures of plus-size people to basically say "hey, dont be like them") share their meals or low-cal recipes/meals, or even encourage others to develop an eating disorder.

a cesspool of predominantly proana fatphobic girlies, who encourage people to starve themselves to reach their ugw ( Ultimate Goal Weight), they use thinspo/bonespo of nearly dying emaciated people for motivation to starve themselves more, they mainly create fatspo threads of fat people without their consent to suppress their appetite or hate fat people on tiktok who are having fun, they do long interment fastings, they get into discourses with tiktok a lot for posting fatspo or ed related content and also soft edtwt (the anti fatphobic and recovery side of edtwt).
person 1: *posts tiktok fatspo on edtwt*

EDtwt is a side of Twitter/X where people with an eating disorder share their milestones. People on edtwt often help each other losing weight by posting thinspo.
