Does Threads have a character limit?

Wanting to know if you can share your lengthy opinion on pineapple pizza without a character limit on Threads? We’ve got the answer.

Instagram Threads has entered the race. More than thirty million users signed up in the first 24 hours and that number has only been growing. Likely fuelled by the tension between Musk and Zuckerberg, Threads has active engagement from celebrities including Shakira and Gordon Ramsay. The app is being compared to that of Twitter with tweets being threads and retweets being reposts. Aside from the name changes, there are many similarities including the structure of the app where users can post comments, images and videos to followers.

But, does it have the same character limit that Twitter has of 280 characters? Let’s find out.

What is Threads character limit?

Threads has a character limit of 500 characters. It’s not loads of space but it is almost double Twitter’s limit of 280 characters. Having more space to articulate thoughts and feelings means users won’t have to complete the same list of separate tweets that Twitter users have to if they want to make a lengthy point. There’ll still be the need to create multiple threads if you are using the Meta app to articulate a particularly opinionated point on pineapple pizza (It’s neither good nor bad!!!).

Note: The paragraph right above is 500 characters which is Threads character limit. Use it as an idea of how much space you have to write your threads.
