It says: "As of November 13, 2023, integration with X (formerly known as Twitter) will no longer function on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 consoles. This includes the ability to view any content published on X on PS5/PS4, and the ability to post and view content, trophies, and other gameplay-related activities on X directly from PS5/PS4 (or link an X account to do so).

While the exact reason has not been confirmed by Sony, it's likely that this is related to the increase in price for use of the Twitter / X API. There are several tiers to the new API costs, but the Enterprise tier starts at $42,000 a month. While this change wasn't confirmed as the reason, after this change Microsoft turning off Twitter / X integration from Xbox consoles and their Windows Game Bar all the way back in April. Blizzard also disabled Twitter / X integration for their massive multiplayer online roleplaying game (MMORPG) World of Warcraft back in February.
