To Musk's comment, a user posted, "You're a crazy man lmao."
Whereas, another commented, "!! Wow! That's really good news. Actual microblogging!" (reported IANS)
In February, the micro-blogging platform announced that the users with Blue subscriptions in the US will be allowed to post longer tweets- they can post by up to 4,000 characters from their page. And it has been just the Blue subscribers who could post the longer tweets, but those who are not having any badges can read, reply, retweet and quote tweets to them (like users have been doing usually).

Earlier, Twitter users were limited to posting anything within the limit of 280 characters, which remains the same for non-subscribers.
Meanwhile, the CEO has said that the micro-blogging platform is 'spinning up subscriptions' so the users could 'charge' their followers for specific kinds of content, said the IANS report.
