Micro-blogging platform Twitter is working on a new feature to allow long form posts on its platform. Twitter currently has a 280-character limit for a tweet.
Twitter, in 2020 had allowed long-form content by permitting multiple tweets in a single thread format and continued to maintain a 280-character limit per tweet.
The new feature, if launched, will allow users to post long form articles in a tweet. More details about the feature are not revealed yet. Twitter confirmed the feature testing to CNET. They also informed that it would share more information about the feature in the coming days.
The feature will allow Twitter to compete against blogging sites like Medium. However, it remains to be seen if the feature will be exclusive for Twitter’s premium platform, Twitter Blue, which is yet to be launched in India.
