Twitter Commences Full Roll Out Of 280 Characters Limit For All

The time for Twitter’s 140 character limit that has prevented many Twitter users from fully expressing themselves with their tweets is quickly getting over as Twitter has finally commenced the full roll out of 280 character limits after testing the new limits with few accounts in the previous months.

You could recall that for many years, Twitter had maintained the 140 character limits across all Twitter platforms, which it inherited from the days of offering purely SMS services.

Twitter allayed the fear been expressed by those who believed that Twitter will lose its uniqueness with the new 280 character limits by quickly revealing the result of the test being carried out with some accounts and which indicates that more people were pleased with the new limit as tweets with the 280 limit got more likes than those of the 140 character limits.

The 280 character limit update is already making its way across all Twitter official platforms in most countries and if you have updated your Twitter app recently you should also be noticing the changes currently or in days to come.

It is worthy to note here that for those in China, Japan and Korea, Twitter will stick to the 140 character limit as space is not much of concern with their pattern of writing over there.
