Elon Musk’s Twitter has expanded the character count for tweets, this time it has upgraded to 25,000 characters exclusively for the paid Blue verification badge subscribers. This recent change comes after the character limit was increased to 4,000 in February (2023), followed by a further increase to 10,000 in April (2023).
Prachi Poddar, an engineer at Twitter, announced the update in a tweet last week, stating, “We have increased NoteTweet (aka longform Tweet) limit from 10k to 25k characters. Enjoy longer NoteTweet and happy tweeting.” The company also reflected this change on its Twitter Blue page, informing users that Blue subscribers now have the ability to compose tweets up to 25,000 characters. The option to write longer tweets is also available in Quote Tweets or replies.
In addition to expanding the character limit, Twitter has extended the privilege to upload longer videos for Twitter Blue subscribers. Since December of the previous year, paid users have been able to upload 60-minute 1080p videos on the platform.
