The app doesn't show twitter URL previews like, say, Discord or Telegram does. I think it's a feature that should be added.

Works fine here,

Might be that the Matrix server you are using has URL previews disabled or is blacklisted by Twitter.
The details missing is on Twitter:

Also, in end-to-end encrypted rooms URL previews are disabled by default and have to be enabled in the room settings

I don't believe there's any Element issue here, as it should be working, but could be disabled in the room / your device. If previewing is working for other links but not Twitter, your server may need to upgrade Synapse, as there were some changes to support Twitter (matrix-org/synapse#7920, matrix-org/synapse#8022).
