Twitter Makes Big Announcement In Regards To Character Count

Twitter has announced a change to the character count. Unfortunately, the character count remains at 140, but there's a change.

No longer do attachments, photos, or GIFs count toward the 140 characters in your subject. Therefore, when you can attach such, and get more in your writing.

There are some reports circulating on the net saying that usernames may soon no longer count against the 140 characters in your subject.

It's refreshing to see Twitter address these concerns as of late. Perhaps the competition between it and other social media platforms has warranted these changes on Twitter.
