    Social Media Character Counter

    Writing one post for many platforms means juggling six different limits. This counter checks your text against all of them simultaneously — X (280), Instagram captions (2,200), LinkedIn (3,000), Facebook, YouTube titles (100), and meta descriptions (160) — with live remaining-character badges.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What are the current platform character limits?
    X: 280 (25,000 for Premium). Instagram captions: 2,200. LinkedIn posts: 3,000. Facebook: ~63,000. YouTube titles: 100. TikTok captions: 2,200.
    Do links count toward X's limit?
    Yes, but every URL counts as a fixed 23 characters via t.co wrapping, regardless of its real length.
    What's the ideal post length (not the maximum)?
    Engagement peaks well below limits: ~70–100 characters on X, 138–150 on Facebook, ~1,000–1,500 on LinkedIn where storytelling wins. Limits are ceilings, not targets.
