Sharing via social media is broken in WP8.1 Preview

I cannot share via Twitter in WP8.1 Preview using this app.

See attached screenshot of my only choices for sharing using this app.

It probably requires the 8.1-compatible versions of the apps that will use the new APIs.

I have a temporary workaround. If you install the app Tweet This! you can use it to share the WPCentral articles.

Me too! Is there a fix? I thought it was just for Weave but it's the same for all News apps. I can't share!

The Tweet This! app, which link to the Store I posted, allows sharing via Weave and any other apps.

But, it's for Twitter only, right? Or can it be shared with Facebook and LinkedIn?

Twitter only. I don't have a Facebook account, and I never share anything on my LinkedIn account, so I don't know about those.

Yes Microsoft have changed this api and we now need to make changes to our apps in line with that change

I would love to be able to update twitter and facebook at the same time... And be able to update the Facebook profile pic from the me tile again.
