Twitter Inc TWTR announced an update on a promise to let users express themselves in more than 140 characters.
The company's Product Manager Sasank Reddy explained in a blog post that when a Twitter user replies to someone or a group on the platform the "@usernames" won't count towards the Tweet's 140 character limit. This might make a difference for most, unless a user is Tweeting out to Andrei Zmievski, owner of one of the coolest Twitter handles: "@a".
But as is always typically the case, whenever a company releases a new product or feature, many users overlook the positives and decide to crack a joke instead. With that said, here's one of the most hilarious responses to Twitter's new 'reply' change.
