retweeters

Message relay users

Retweeters are people who retweet—sharing someone else's post on Twitter (now X) to their own followers.

The term often appears in discussions of how content spreads: The original tweet had thousands of retweeters within hours.

Retweeters can amplify a message, whether for support, mockery, or simply to share information.
