The
micro-blogging network Twitter has announced that it will remove the 140-character limit on direct messages from July. Twitter
users will soon be able to send longer direct messages Because twitter is will be eliminating the extending
140-character limit to 10,000.Twitter’s product manager for direct messages Sachin Agarwal said :
“We’ve done a lot to improve direct messages over the past year and have much more exciting work on the horizon”
“You may be wondering what this means for the public side of Twitter. Nothing! Tweets will continue to be the 140 characters they are today.”
It is worth mentioning that the character limit has been extended only for direct messages, and not for tweets themselves, which will stay limited at 140 characters. "You may be wondering what this means for the public side of Twitter. Nothing! Tweets will continue to be the 140 characters they are today," added Agarwal.
The social media website on Wednesday introduced a feature to export and import block lists. With the new feature, Twitter users can curate their own list of blocked users on the micro-blogging network and share it with others. This is said to help make Twitter spam-free and safer. Other users on the platform can also add more users to the shared list by importing to their accounts.
It also introduced changes to how conversations are shown on the tweet page which might save users some time untangling the usual mess of conversation replies surrounding a tweet.
