When Notes was first announced, it allowed users to type whatever they wanted without being limited to the typical 280 character limit. As it is now known, the company has renamed its future function Twitter Articles, aka “Articles”.

What is known about Twitter Articles

Elon Musk confirmedThat Articles would be a place to post “long, complex mixed media articles”. Authors will be able to add images, videos and animations in the middle of the text, not at the end of the text like a regular tweet.. This will bring Twitter closer to traditional blogs and even news agency sites.

It is interesting that the mass media can now begin to publish on their pages not only headlines with a link to the text published on the site in full, but all material. And those who, from the very beginning, worked solely for Twitter audiences without having a separate site, will likely expand their format. For casual users, this can be another way to avoid long threads stemming from many individual tweets.

It’s not clear whether articles will have any character limits or will allow you to post anything. But even if there is a limit, it is clear that it will be important, because “You can publish a book if you want,” says Musk.

It is currently unclear when exactly the articles will be made available worldwide and whether they will be available to everyone or only users who have purchased a paid subscription.
