Twitter Increases Character Limit To 10,000 For Twitter Blue Users

Twitter, the microblogging site owned by Elon Musk has increased its character limit to 10,000 characters for each tweet. earlier this year, Twitter doubled its character limit from 280 to 4,000.

The most recent increase in character restrictions is only available to Twitter Blue users. Twitter verified this in a tweet, adding that blue users can personalise the text with bold and italic styling.

“We are improving the writing and reading experience on Twitter! It now allows Tweets of up to 10,000 characters in length, with bold and italic text styling,” according to a tweet.

Users must subscribe to Twitter in order to take advantage of the long-form material. Users can receive the blue “verified” tick mark next to their username after subscribing to Twitter.

The user must provide his mobile number and further details to complete the verification process to verify the account, tweets and replies will be prioritised in the Twitter handle and placed at the top of their followers' feeds.

Blue users will also enjoy additional benefits, such as 50 per cent less advertising on their Twitter profiles. Blue users can upload films lasting up to an hour. And, with the latest update, Twitter Blue users can now edit or undo their tweets 5 times within 30 minutes.

The Twitter Blue service is already available in more than 20 countries and will soon be available globally.

For the first year, the microblogging platform stated that it would not charge any commission on whatever a creator makes on the network.

Twitter CEO Elon Musk said that users will receive their whole earnings from the platform's services for the first year.

Musk added that after the first year, “iOS and Android fees will drop to 15 per cent and we will add a small amount on top, depending on volume.”

The platform is entirely up to the user, as Twitter permits its creator to depart at any point with whatever they have applied to the platform.
