Opinion: Elon Musk still doesn't get it

). These Twitter Blue features might attract more people, but for anyone who understands what Twitter is really all about, at least one of them will turn users off.

Twitter started as a microblogging service that only supported roughly as many characters as you could send in a then standard text message. That was 140 characters. Some earliest users were tweeting via text from their phones. I think the code was 40404. That artificial limitation eventually gave way to 280 characters, long after all of us were exclusively Tweeting via apps and web browsers. Tweets also got richer, with support for photos, videos, and GIFs.

I count all of this as progress. Even Twitter threads that let you tell long tales in a series of Tweets have value. I love that tweet limitations force the verbose among us to break thoughts up into bite-sized chunks.A 1500-word tweet will be unsightly on the desktop and a real slog on mobile. It also cuts against Twitter's primary purpose: to be a fast, steady stream of news, info, entertainment, and errata from multiple sources.
