Twitter recently announced its intention to double the number of its tweet characters from the characteristic 140 to 280.
The company in its research findings discovered that users who tweet in English, Portuguese, Spanish and French were the ones not too satisfied with the limited character count, which is not the case with Korean, Japanese and Chinese tweets whose language can convey as much as double the amount of information in one character.
“ We want every person around the world to easily express themselves on Twitter, so we're doing something new: we're going to try out a longer limit, 280 characters, in languages impacted by cramming (which is all except Japanese, Chinese, and Korean),” a Twitter blog post wrote.
The feature is currently being tested with a small group to get feedback even though the company feels confident about its findings and the positive impact impact it would have on the users.
Twiiter CEO Jack Dorsey shared his thoughts in a new 280 character tweet.
However, observations on Twitter is showing the proposed change isn't looking popular among users.
This Twitter user went on to edit Jack's tweets to show how redundant some words are in his 280 character long tweet.
Wife of John Legend, Christine Teigen went in with a sarcastic tweet.
Others are wondering how Donald Trump will take the news.
A user is however pleased with the development.
