Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/TheLovinator1/discord-twitter-webhooks/issues/96

The text of all Tweets appears to be limited to 280 characters. However, Twitter Blue allows for up to 10,000 characters while Discord Embed descriptions allow for up to 4,096 characters. Ideally, this project should truncate at the embed description limit.
