Recently we published a tweet, as it got popular so many people liked and retweeted it. So just being curious, we want to know the entire list of people who liked/retweeted a tweet we posted.
Twitter has some limitations where it doesn’t allow you to see everyone if you have 100’s or 1000’s likes or retweets.
Now you must be asking a question yourself “someone favorited my tweet but I can’t see who”. Well, we have the answer to your problem. Keep Reading!
Why can’t I see who liked my tweet?
There is only one reason why you can’t see the name of the person who liked or favorited your retweet. This happens when a user has made their profile private. If you have followed the person before they liked or retweeted, only then you can see them on the list.
Suppose if you have got 100 likes on your tweet but you are only able to see 50, then the rest 50 has set their profile to private. If you wish to see the future likes by them then you need to follow them.
How to See who Liked or Retweeted you
There are 2 methods to see who liked or retweet you.
Method 1. Using Computer
i) Login to your Twitter account.
ii) Click on the profile on the left side of the screen.

Okay, you said,
“Suppose if you have got 100 likes on your tweet but you are only able to see 50, then the rest 50 has set their profile to private. If you wish to see the future likes by them then you need to follow them.”
How are you supposed to follow the person to see future likes, if they’re set to private and you CAN’T see who it was? There’s no way to know who it is, so you can’t follow anyone you can’t see(?)
I can’t see the point of liking other people’s tweets if you have set your account private. They won’t know you liked the tweet, they can’t interact with you in any way. Private accounts are a stupid thing, really
