Threads tested a way to share long text on the platform

The threads test a new function that makes it easier to share long text on the social network, the meta has confirmed TechCrunch on Thursday. The function allows users to attach a text block to the post instead of creating the thread of several different posts when they want to share more detailed thoughts and ideas.

Application researcher Radu oncescu First, I noticed a new function of “text attachment” on iOS and made it available a screenshot. According to the description of the new application function, it is designed to enable users to “attach longer text and creativity with styling tools for sharing deeper thoughts, information fragments, reservation fragments and others.”

The possibility of sharing long content can help maintain creators and writers who want more distribution of articles that would otherwise be published on their blogs or bulletin platforms such as Suback. This feature also gets rid of the need to circumvent when looking for a division of a text that goes beyond the limit of words for posts, such as providing a text of the text block in the phone's notes application.

User threads Robert P. Nickson He shared the post with this function to show how it looks for viewers. The long text snippet is displayed in a gray field in a post, which people can then click to read and scroll full content.

The threads of competitor X already offers a way for users Share long content on the platform using “articles”. Although the X function is available only to premium subscribers, the thread function is available to everyone, but this may change in the future.

In addition, threads allow users to share the text, while X allows people to enable images and films. Considering that the function is still in the test phase, it is possible that threads may in the future add multimedia support.

Meta claims that it plans to donate more users in the future.
