Twitter increased the character limit for paid subscribers again, and by a lot!

Twitter Blue has been the company’s main priority since Elon Musk took over, and we’ve seen several changes to the subscription service. After a massive bump to the tweet character limit not too long ago, Twitter is increasing it yet again- and by a lot this time.

A few months ago, Twitter announced that it was increasing the tweet character limit to a staggering 4,000 characters. This dwarfs the 280-character limit that free users have access to. It’s already enough to type up a short article on the platform, but the company wanted to take it to an even further extent.

The Twitter Blue character limit is now 10,000

Twitter announced this via tweet. “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,”. That’s a 150% increase, and it’s enough for you to really flesh out your ideas. We’re not sure if people will really want to write (or read) a 10,000-character tweet, but the ability is there should you need it.

This change doesn’t stop there, as the platform now lets Blue users use bold and italic formats for their text. This means that you can add emphasis to your tweets in a way that you couldn’t before on the platform. So, if you wanted to, you’d be able to write full-on articles on the platform if you were so inclined.

You already have the ability to add pictures to your tweets. Being able to format your text like that is just the icing on the cake. These changes are rolling out, so chances are that you’ll be able to use them right away.

Other changes that came to Twitter Blue include fewer ads. The company had a little bit of backlash because you didn’t see reduced ads across the platform. You’d only see fewer ads on the For You page. This means that, across the majority of the platform, you were still seeing just as many ads as everyone else.
