Pattern

regexengine-agnostic
https?:\/\/(?:www\.)?(?:twitter|x)\.com\/([A-Za-z0-9_]{1,15})(?:\/status\/(\d+))?   (flags: g)

Raw source: https?:\/\/(?:www\.)?(?:twitter|x)\.com\/([A-Za-z0-9_]{1,15})(?:\/status\/(\d+))?

How it works

https?:\/\/(?:www\.)?(?:twitter|x)\.com matches the domain — both legacy twitter.com and current x.com, with optional www. ([A-Za-z0-9_]{1,15}) captures the handle. (?:\/status\/(\d+))? optionally captures a tweet ID for status URLs.
