TikTok users can now post text-based updates in addition to videos and series of photos – just as platforms like Meta’s Threads are vying to take on Twitter’s microblogging dominance.
Text posts appear similar to Instagram Stories visually: users can add a background color, edit how text appears, and add music and stickers to the post. Posts have a 1,000-character limit.
Other users can also engage with the post similar to how they interact with video – by stitching, dueting, and commenting.
