Which could possibly be helpful, however it’s nonetheless solely out there to Twitter Blue subscribers, which make up less than 0.3% of Twitter’s total user base, and it’s seemingly not out there to everybody simply but, with some Blue options nonetheless being rolled out to all.
Working example, within the above instance, it states that the Twitter Blue subscriber size restrict is 4,000 characters per tweet, although Twitter truly expanded it to 10,000 back in April. Appears that not all customers have this growth as but, or the wording hasn’t been universally up to date – which is reflective of Twitter’s quickly evolving system updates, that typically result in bugs and inconsistencies.

Perhaps, then, they’ll want to return to the drafting board for an additional answer to deal with bot swarms and income consumption. Â
