Twitter May Introduce Feature Allowing Longer Video Uploads
Twitter is set to introduce a feature that will enable its users to share videos lasting more than three hours on its micro-blogging platform.
When Twitter owner Elon Musk responded to US comedian and podcaster Theo Von’s tweet, “Comedy is legal on this platform!”
Lex Fridman, host of the famous Lex Fridman Podcast and recently posted a video of him practicing jiu jitsu with Musk, commented: “Nice. Would be great to be able to upload 3+ hour podcast videos with timestamps/numbers. PS: Theo is awesome.”
“It will,” Musk replied.
“Thanks Elon! Let me know when you’re ready to bring the podcasts to Twitter. happy to help,” Von added.
Several users expressed their thoughts in a post by the Twitter owner.
While one user said: “Meme editor. Elon. Don’t bother. give us give us,” another commented, “Can you speed up the upload time… I’m trying to upload a 5 minute video and it still takes about 10 minutes to upload.”
In May, Musk announced the ability to download 2-hour videos (8GB) for Twitter Blue Verified subscribers.
The microblogging platform had also changed its Twitter Blue page and announced that the video file size limit for paid users has been increased from 2GB to 8GB. Despite these changes, the maximum download quality is 1080p.
