The decision to change from character count to the unknowing orb is ridiculous. Yet another example of Twitter UI/UX teams choosing aesthetics over practicality

On the bright side, it does show numbers when you’re getting close to limit.
Ah, it shows at 20 left. That's better than nothing. Would have preferred a lot more though - shorter messages will always be easier to consume

Agreed. Would’ve liked something closer to 175-200 as far as the increase goes. 280 seems a bit overboard and unecessary for a platform that’s always been based on portraying thoughts in a concise manner.

140 was arbitrary based on SMS limits so I don't mind the increase necessarily. Just a bit of a weird thing to focus on + the rollout has been handled poorly. 200 sounds good

I just wish they did what a few apps do and allow you to tap it and cycle between the versions
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
