How are emoji counted?

Characters are counted by Unicode code point, so most emoji count as a single visible character — close to how social platforms display length.

Which platforms are included?

X / Twitter (free and Premium), Bluesky, Threads, Mastodon, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn posts and headlines, YouTube, TikTok and single-segment SMS.

Is my draft uploaded?

No — your text never leaves your browser; all counting is done locally.
