We don't replace across sites, sorry.

So just reupload it in its original form, flag the old one as a duplicate and that's it?

First time using this thread, I used Pixiv instead of Twitter and realized too late that the artist uploaded lower res versions on their Pixiv... Replacing this would be nice since I don't want to upload a parent of my own upload from a few moments ago.

Normally we don't replace pixiv <-> twitter, but since this is visually identical and given the circumstances I'll just go ahead and do it.

Not doing would just create a duplicate. The post was uploaded only 30 minutes ago, so...

Thanks, I'll make sure to keep this in mind!

Just to elaborate on why we don't do it, it's because otherwise we'd need an entire team of mods just monitoring for this kind of case and constantly replacing posts, which is not feasible with the volume of uploads danbooru gets, and this is prone to errors because artists might post revisions or different variants to Pixiv that are often not immediately evident.
Obviously this is an edge case, given that the Pixiv version is basically a sample of the Twitter version, so combined with the fact that the post was uploaded very recently imo there was no harm in replacing it.
