For me the 140 character limit is a bit too little. Trying to squeeze my thoughts requires too much effort. Even a small increase to for example 200 characters

- lcnmrn 10y agoSublevel has a 640 character limit. It works great for some people while very few reach that limit[1]. Along 480 characters is the perfect limit of characters or 3 SMS messages merged together. So 200 characters won’t make any difference for Twitter.
