Hi, thanks for using Maskbook. About this question, it is a feature of Maskbook. Twitter has a character length limit on each tweet so it is impossible to store all required information of your Maskbook tweet.
The Maskbook team makes a workaround to make it possible, that is, makes an invalid link to a famous website and contains all information in that link.
For example, if I want to post more than 140 (IIRC) chars, I can post a URL that contains more than 140 words (https://example.com/all-long-content-here) and Twitter will short the link for you so it only uses about 10 chars in your tweet.
