What counts as a character
- Spaces, emoji and line breaks all count.
Best length vs the maximum
- Specific beats general: “I make a mean Sunday lasagne” says more than “I love food”.
- Give people something to reply to: a question, an opinion, a plan.
- Keep it kind and short; a few lines are enough.
