Well, I’m locked out of my LinkedIn.

It doesn’t provide a simple password reset.

I’m probably locked out because of a bad password creation policy, but who knows.

It’s asking for 2FA I didn’t set up.

And they want a government issued ID to let me in.

After 20 years, I’m out.

[Joshr @joshr]

I won’t be calling it X

[Joshr @joshr]

Total moron.

@heroku hello, I’m stuck in a loop with your support about trying to close a team. I want to talk to a human please.

[Joshr @joshr]

Fake it until you make it?

Translation: lie until you’re profitable.

@loudmouthman Mastodon is a twitter, but it isn’t (yet) Instagram’s twitter, or TikTok’s twitter.

But they will have one soon enough.

[Joshr @joshr]

Every social network will have its own ‘Twitter’.

[Joshr @joshr]

So Twitter’s done now yeah?

[Joshr @joshr]

4000 characters is awful.

Musk has no idea about Twitter does he.

[Premium @premium]

need more than 280 characters to express yourself?

we know that lots of you do… and while we love a good thread, sometimes you just want to Tweet everything all at once. we get that.

so we're introducing longer Tweets! you're gonna want to check this out. tap this 👉

starting today, if you’re subscribed to Twitter Blue in the US you can create longer Tweets.

most standard functions of Tweeting still apply, whether you want to post a picture, use a hashtag, or create a poll. but now you can type all the way up to 4,000 characters. for now, longer Tweets on web can't be saved as drafts or scheduled to send later.

but don’t worry, Twitter is still Twitter. we know longer Tweets could mean a lot of scrolling, so they’ll be capped at 280 characters on your timeline and you’ll see a “Show more” prompt to click and read the whole Tweet.

while only Blue subscribers can post longer Tweets, anyone and everyone can read them. you can reply to, retweet, and quote Tweet a longer Tweet, no matter if you’re a Twitter Blue subscriber or not. subscribers will be able to reply and QT with up to 4,000 characters.

let us know what you think. we’re excited to see how you use the extra space!

if you’ve got more to say, you can subscribe to Twitter Blue by clicking the link in our bio.

@ShaanVP @parkerconrad Agree, startups that do this should also have an “I know what I’m doing” option

[Joshr @joshr]

This is where we heal our hurts

[Joshr @joshr]

Other than the broken blue tick, no indication of what you actually get for £11.99/mo - it’s all coming soon, and no link to more info.

So right now, as far as you can tell, it’s just for the blue tick.

For a salesman, he’s shit at selling.

[Joshr @joshr]

seen this? possible twitter alternative, my referral link https://t.co/WBvAAVFcb9

[Joshr @joshr]

Will that involve turning 2FA back on?!

[Joshr @joshr]

@Julieanne All gone I’m afraid, I’ll swing by Friday and say hi :)

[Joshr @joshr]

Has Musk actually just got Twitter Blue and Blue Ticks mixed up?

[Joshr @joshr]

Ok who’s at #uxbrighton then?

[Joshr @joshr]

Twitter should have been federated while we had the chance.

[Joshr @joshr]

He asked them to print out the code.
