I love that they are keen on holding compatibility with archaic SMS but not so much with slower connections.

- milesrout 10y ago1. SMS isn't archaic. 2. 140-char limit isn't about SMS.
- angry-hacker 10y ago1. 1992 in archaic. 2. Officially it was, not it's just stupid and unneccessary.
- milesrout 10y agoSMS isn't archaic any more than writing is archaic. They're both not brand new, and they're both widely used today. VHS is archaic.
- milesrout 10y agoThe 140-character limit was INITIALLY because of SMS, but now it's just the standard format for the medium. The whole point of Twitter is the 140-char limit.
