The official post on the matter goes into a bit more detail, but the major takeaway here is that tweets can only be edited within the first 30 minutes after tweeting. These edited tweets will also come with an icon and a label to indicate the fact, as well as a timestamp to tell when it happened. Hitting said label will show other users the edit history, revealing what the original tweet was before it was edited.

But it is unclear if there is an actual limit to the number of times a tweet can be edited. As mentioned earlier, Twitter Blue users will be the first to be getting access to this feature, which is happening later this month. This testing phase will also be localised to a single country at first and expanded as it goes on. No specifics on the country in question, the start date of the test and when it will be expanding to other countries.
