Were your tweets feeling crammed? Did you feel like you’re not getting all your thoughts out to your eager followers?
Well, fear not – Twitter has a solution for you.
The social media site doubled its character limit following a pilot earlier this fall.
Although project manager Aliza Rosen said that Twitter expects to see most users continue to keep their tweets short and sweet, some took advantage of the novelty of 280 characters:
Now that we all have #280Characters, we expect your Twitter complaints about specific calls against your favorite teams to be calm, well-reasoned, and full of complete sentences. Thanks in advance for this positive step forward in basketball officiating-related discourse."

Dear Twitter,
If there's one thing we could ask for from 2017, it wouldn't be "more Twitter."
Thanks,
