According to Bardin's explanation, presented in page Post (*), the platform will provide the option to comment, like, share and repost content. On the other hand, unlike Twitter, in Post Users will be able to post “any length”, that is, longer than the current limit of 280 characters on Musk’s network.

“Remember when social media was fun, introduced you to great ideas and cool people, and actually made you smarter? Remember when it didn't waste your time and leave you with raiva or sad? When can you disagree with someone without being threatened or insulted? We want to bring that back with the Post,” Bardin’s statement also says.

O Post is not yet open to all users, but it is possible to sign up for waiting list.
