Long Form posts (10k characters) and formatting

Feature RequestMar 16, 2023

** This isn't currently supported by the Twitter API, but we will add support as soon as it is**

As a twitter blue user, I would like to use the "Longer Tweets" features, which allows to create tweets that can contain up to 4.000 characters.

Urgent should be #1 priority

Badly need this - at present I have to switch back to Twitter to do these. I'd rather stay in Typefully.

Yes this would be a nice thing to use selectively. Twitter seems to be favoring this over Tweet Threads lately.

Max Clark: absolutely in my experience it’s a massive difference

Absolutely a full stop must have… This is not a nice to have, for those of us that have it threads are not as effective at least as long tweets, so the tool becomes much less needed here. I haven’t touched it in months due to this.

As a side note - if you're writing for both LinkedIn & Twitter, it'd drastically simplify your cross posting process, since you could just dump the exact same text onto both platforms instead of threading it.

We've started working on this, and we should have a beta soon.

𝕏 still doesn't offer an API, so initially you'll be able to write long form in Typefully and copy the content to post it manually on 𝕏.

But we hope API support will come soon so we can support publishing and scheduling as well.

Fabrizio Rinaldi: what about the auto-retweet? By posting manually, we lose this functionality of Typefully.

Fabrizio Rinaldi:
What about supporting it in the editor then converting to a thread? I'd like to write long form for both Twitter and LI, but fine with if you convert it for Twitter/X to a thread until it's supported.
BUT writing in the editor "long form" style and having it yell at me for too long a post kills my creative brain for writing. (Unless this is different if/when I upgrade my account to add LinkedIn)
