The character limit for messages on Elon Musk’s Twitter has increased yet again, this time to 25,000 characters for subscribers to the premium Blue verification badge service. Following two previous increases, the character limit was raised to 4,000 in February (2023) and then to 10,000 in April (2023).
Last week, Twitter developer Prachi Poddar tweeted about the change and said, “We have raised NoteTweet (aka longform Tweet) capacity from 10k to 25k characters. Happy tweeting and enjoy the extended NoteTweet. Additionally, the business updated its Twitter Blue page to reflect this change, alerting users that Blue customers may now create tweets with up to 25,000 characters. Also accessible in quote tweets and responses is the possibility to create lengthier tweets.
Twitter has increased both the character limit and the ability for Twitter Blue subscribers to submit lengthier videos. Paid customers have had access to uploading 60-minute 1080p films on the platform since December of the previous year.
There are rumors that Twitter is considering reducing the daily cap on direct messages (DMs) sent by non-Blue users. Twitter is reportedly working on this feature, according to a tweet from leaker Alessandro Paluzzi, who said, “#Twitter is working to limit the number of DMs you can send per day before having to sign up for @TwitterBlue.” The leaker’s screenshot shows that non-Twitter Blue users who exceed their message allotment would be confronted with a popup that reads, “Get verified to send more messages.”
These latest innovations show how hard Twitter is working to improve user experience and give paying customers more capabilities. The platform intends to provide improved chances for creative expression and interaction by increasing the character limit and video upload options for Twitter Blue subscribers. Furthermore, the prospective ban on direct messages for non-Blue users shows that Twitter is looking into methods to entice users to think about upgrading to its premium service.
It will be fascinating to see how user engagement is affected by these changes and whether Twitter keeps adding new features to meet the changing demands and tastes of its broad user base.
