How to write 280 characters on Twitter? Here we explain it to you in a simple way

The impatient are in luck, there is already a way, which aims to be temporary, to enjoy the 280 characters on Twitter, even before it is active in your account.

If you haven't heard, the number of characters on Twitter has doubled, going from 140 characters to 280 characters, a feature that is not yet active, but will arrive shortly. This function has not been popularized, so to speak, only a select few are lucky enough to be able to tweet 280 characters. Although it is not available to everyone, they have found a way for everyone who wants to use more than 140 characters.

This has been achieved through a script and has been published by the Twitter user, Prof9, who with a script has managed to modify the 140 characters and move to the new length of the social network. Although this solution is already available to everyone, it is possible that Twitter ends up blocking this function and we have to wait for it to reach us, sometime between now and the end of the world, because the platform would be choosing to do it in a staggered manner , so that it is not a case. If you are impatient and want to hesitate to everyone, we leave you the steps:

  1. The first is download Tampermonkey for browser (supports most popular browsers except Edge)
  2. You have to go to github repository and click on the 'RAW', so that the script is installed.
  3. The last step is to make sure that this script is functional in Tampermonkey and we can now publish the tweet from the Twitter website, without major problems.

Currents have already begun to emerge that assure that, if many accounts with 140 characters already contribute little or nothing and others should be blocked by Kaffirs, the 280 opens the door to greater nonsense and perhaps to stories more elaborate than Bartual's . Be that as it may, this function seems to be here to stay and there is no choice but to live with it.
