Overview

Here's the updated description for the Chrome Web Store:

Pasterboy lets you paste formatted text into X.com (Twitter) with native bold and italic styling — no Unicode hacks required.
⚠️ Important: X.com Premium Required for Formatting
Bold and italic formatting on X.com is only available to Premium subscribers. Free X.com accounts can still use Pasterboy for plain text posting and thread splitting.
🚫 Why Not Unicode?
Unicode "bold" text (like 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀) breaks search, accessibility, screen readers, translations, copy-paste, and SEO. Pasterboy uses X.com's native formatting for real bold and italic that works everywhere.
✨ Key Features

Paste from Markdown (bold, italic, both)
Paste from Google Docs, Notion, Word, or any rich text source
Auto-splits long posts into threads (for free X.com accounts)
Smart Split finds natural break points at bullet points, sentences, and paragraphs
Works with X.com Premium long posts (25,000 characters)
Remove line breaks option for cleaner posts
Dark and light themes

📋 How It Works

Copy formatted text from any source
Click the Pasterboy extension icon
Paste into the input field
Click "Insert into X.com"
Your text appears in the X.com editor with formatting preserved

💰 Pricing
Pasterboy is completely free with no limitations. If you find it helpful, consider supporting development via Ko-fi (link in Settings).
🔒 Privacy
Pasterboy stores your preferences locally on your device. We do not collect, store, or sell your personal data or post content.
