“What is conceived well is expressed clearly” might have been Twitter’s original mantra, back when a tweet couldn’t be longer than 140 characters. Revised upwards, to 280 characters a few years ago, this limit has now been completely swept away by users of Twitter Blue, the paid version of the social network. Since last February, it was possible, in exchange for a few monthly funds, to post long pamphlets of 4000 characters. But this limit has increased to 10,000 characters since Thursday, April 13.
We’re making improvements to the writing and reading experience on Twitter! Starting today, Twitter now supports Tweets up to 10,000 characters in length, with bold and italic text formatting.

Remember that Twitter Blue offers a host of other features, such as post-publication tweet editing, priority rankings in conversations and search, the publication of longer videos and 1080p video downloads, or the possibility of put profile pictures in NFT format. Features destined to expand according to the new fads of Elon Musk, the owner of the microblogging platform.
