Elon Musk buys Twitter
Editor/
Elon Musk has confirmed that he will be dropping the 280 character limit on Twitter “soon”.
The new social media boss made the announcement this morning while responding to an 82 tweet-long thread.
Users are currently restricted to tweets of 280 characters, but ditching this is one of a long list of promises Musk has made regarding the future of the site.
He first broached the subject pre-takeover, in April, where he expressed that ‘Twitter is *way* overdue for long form tweets‘.
Then, at the end of last month, he replied “absolutely” to another Twitter user asking if he could “get rid of character limits”.
Musk also revealed yesterday that he plans to reduce his time at the company and eventually find a new leader.
