Also, some twitter links are broken

Not broken, you just don't need to include the full link to your twitter profile - just your handle.

If the app automatically adds a prefix and doesn't automatically strip that prefix if it's present in supplied data, it's broken.

Yep, should be parsing input for twitter prefix I agree.

I've updated this to now make it obvious that you need to enter your handle, rather than full url.
