Open Word Counter500 characters. More than Twitter's 280, less than "write a novel" territory. Threads landed in a nice spot - enough room to actually say something, not so much that you ramble. I kind of like the constraint.
If you need more, there's this text attachment feature that goes up to 10,000 characters. Basically lets you write a blog post and attach it. Most people don't need it, but it's there.
Authentic stuff. Personal takes. Threads seems to reward conversational content over polished marketing speak. Keep it short even though you have 500 characters - just because you can use them all doesn't mean you should. Lead with your point.
