New Delhi: Twitter CEO Elon Musk announced that the platform would introduce its long-form text feature early on Friday, a change many big users are going to witness in the micro-blogging platform, NDTV reported.
In a tweet on Sunday morning, Musk listed the proposed changes Twitter's user interface will have and will be introduced shortly. The "Easy swipe right/left to move between recommended vs followed tweets will come online later this week. The Bookmark button will come a week later, and long-form tweets early next month, he said.
He wrote, "Easy swipe right/left to move between recommended vs followed tweets rolls out later this week. The first part of a much larger UI overhaul. Bookmark button (de facto silent like) on Tweet details rolls out a week later. Long-form tweets early Feb."
In November, the CEO announced that Twitter would allow users to post long-form texts as tweets. At the moment, tweets have a character bar of 280.
Ending the "absurdity of notepad screenshots", Twitter will enable long-form texts attachment to tweets.
The changes announced today will be the latest of many in a series that Musk imposed after he took over the site in October last.
It has been a debate about whether to enable long-form text on Twitter. Many have demanded the feature, while others flagged that it will rob Twitter's uniqueness from other social media platforms.
Those against the feature also argue that users could detail the post by using the threads option. They add that removal of the capon characters is not required, NDTV reports.
