OK, so this is just getting more interesting at Twitter. Today, I’ve read an article that indicates that Twitter is now giving blue subscribers a 25,000 character limit.
I don’t know what to say about it. Social Media, In my opinion, should not be the platform to write long form articles. It should have a decent amount of characters to make announcements about shows, what you’re up to, or anything else like that; but not to write long form work.
I like the fact that Mastodon can in fact increase the limit from 500 to something longer if themaintainer wishes to. On the instance I’m on for example, we have a 2,000 character limit
While making an announcement about one of my shows, I saw the character count was in the 700 range, but I have seen longer by the likes of Brian Krebs and other journalists.
The JRN knows by reading that Brian has no reason to go back to Twitter and he’s happy at Mastodon.
A new social media Blue Sky has their character limit at 300. I’m not going to say what character limit is good, but I’m happy at 2,000.
This article is titled Twitter now allows subscribers to post 25,000-character-long tweets and feel free to sound off on this one.
Here we go!
