Elon Musk, CEO of Twitter, announced yesterday that the microblogging platform will “soon” expand “long-form tweets” to 10,000 characters.
“The dev community and I were wondering if you could add code blocks to tweets,” asked YouTuberA@ThePrimeagen, who posts coding-related videos.
“As an attachment?” said Musk, adding, “How many characters are there? We will soon increase the limit for long-form tweets to 10,000.” Several users responded to the CEO of Twitter’s post.
While one user commented, “You’re a crazy man lmao”, another added, “!! Wow! That’s fantastic news. Microblogging at its finest!”
Blue subscribers in the United States can now post long tweets of up to 4,000 characters on the platform, the company announced last month, IANS reported from New Delhi.
Only Blue subscribers can send longer tweets, but anyone can read, reply, retweet, and quote them.
Earlier, tweets were limited to only 280 characters, which still applies to non-subscribers.
Meanwhile, Musk had said that the micro-blogging platform is “spinning up subscriptions” so that users can “charge” their followers for specific content.
