Twitter quietly renames Notes to Articles, testing new tools for long-form tweets

Twitter is quietly testing new tools to publish long-form tweets on the platform. It has also renamed its dormant Notes feature to Articles.

Last year in June, Twitter was testing a new feature called "Notes" that allowed users to publish longer tweets. It was tested by a small group of writers but faded into the background once Elon Musk took over.

Last month, Twitter increased the character limit for Twitter Blue subscribers to 25,000 words.

In response to a tweet that broke the news about Notes being renamed to Articles, Elon Musk confirmed that this will allow users to post, "very long, complex articles with mixed media".
For now, not much else is known about Twitter intends to do with Articles or when it plans to release it. A few days ago, the platform said that it would start sharing advertising revenue with select content creators.
