How to write a thread on X or Threads
Press Add to thread under the last post in the composer, or press ++⌘↵++ at the end of it, and write the next post.
A thread holds up to 25 posts, and X and Threads get it as a chain, each post replying to the one before.
Every other platform in the same Buzz gets the posts joined into one.
Write the thread
1. Start a Buzz and tick your X or Threads account in the row above the text.
2. Write the first post.
3. Press Add to thread in the tools under the post, or press ⌘↵ (Ctrl+Enter on Windows) at the end of it.
4. Write the next post, and repeat until the thread is done.
5. Press Schedule or Drop a Buzz as usual.
Note: When a Buzz becomes a thread, its second post starts as a short note about Buzzmark with a link. Press Clear to empty it and write your own, or Keep it.
What other platforms get
LinkedIn, Facebook and the other platforms without threads get the posts joined into one post, and the preview shows them that way. Press the eye in the tools to check it before you send.
To send LinkedIn one tighter post while X gets the thread, press LinkedIn's tile and change its text. That platform then gets its own version: see How to give each platform its own version of a post.
Length and polls
Each post in the thread has the platform's own length limit, and on X it depends on the account's X plan. Posting rules by platform lists every limit. On X a poll can't be part of a thread.
Questions
Can I post a thread to LinkedIn?
LinkedIn doesn't do threads. A thread sent there goes out as one post with the parts joined.
How many posts can a thread have?
Up to 25 posts in one Buzz.
The full guide in the docs
- The composerThe composer is where you write a Buzz: one post, or a thread on X and Threads, going to one or more of your accounts.
- Posting rules by platformEach platform takes different posts, with its own length, media, threads, mentions and first comment, and the composer checks every Buzz against those rules for each account you picked.
