Bug Description

The message url is exposed as "link". Unfortunately there is also a linkUrl and a linkPicture.

I would prefer it to be named something like "messageUrl" or "messageLink".

Sorry, it is ofc called "url" not "link". Still, I find the name rather ambiguous.

Generally I would prefer to avoid schema changes at all costs. It is a really painful migration, and generally involves deleting all local tweets. I'm not aware of any way of modifying a deemodel in place, and if anything uses it stays in memory, then it sticks with the old one... so you really have to kill all friends processes, and then delete the disk cache, and then start afresh with an empty model. sometimes it's worth it when you're adding fields, but it's not really worth it for a simply cosmetic name change like this.
