Stay within X's 280-character post limit. Live count, threading help, link-shortened preview.

Notes

  • Each link is counted as 23 characters regardless of actual length (t.co shortener).
  • Premium subscribers can post up to 25,000 characters in a single tweet.
  • Threads have no limit on count but each tweet still respects the per-post cap.
