    (If you can't open either of these links, say so, and I'll reply with full quote-posts of these three posts.)

    All character counts are raw, i.e. the actual number of characters visible. The characters are not counted the Mastodon way (= summary/CW counts into the character count, links are always 23 characters). BBcode markup is not counted in either, nor are the alt-texts, although both internally add to the character count.

    Important to know: Local character limits aren't necessarily inbound character limits. For example, Mastodon is hard-coded to a maximum of 500 characters internally, but (AFAIK) it accepts posts coming in from outside up to 100,000 characters.

    Likewise, Misskey is hard-coded to 3,000 characters internally. The Forkeys have a configurable internal character limit. But their inbound character limit is higher, hard-coded to ca. 8,000 as @aliceif :totally_a_real_lesbian_flag: has said.

    Pleroma and Akkoma have configurable internal character limits that default to 5,000, but AFAIK a hard-coded inbound character limit of 20,000.

    In all these cases, longer posts coming in from outside are immediately deleted from the inbox.

  2. We could learn fr #CoryDoctorow 🏆
    1. Our #fediverse is great for safe & private networking: "no #characterlimit" is also a boon.
    2. But, can fediversers take the exemplary practice of @pluralistic who habitually uses #unfurl or collapsible buttons to hide #longtoots or long threads? I've followed Cory for years but not every post may be of immediate interest, so he's very kind with this habit imho.🙏
    3. Sorry, fediversers making long posts without unfurl buttons often get #muted - is it only me?🤔

  3. Olika sociala medier och olika instanser på Mastodon har olika begränsningar för max antal tecken per inlägg/toot. Facebook har 63 206. Förinställda värdet för Mastodon är 500, men det finns flera instanser med mer. toot.cat har en miljon (1000 000), toots.nu 5000, infosec.exchange 11 000. "Many people are upset with Facebook but they won't jump on mastodon due to writing restrictions." Teckenbegränsning, kan byta instans om vill.

  5. CW: Surprisingly for many of you, there are indeed people on Mastodon who have a problem with long posts over 500 characters; CW: long post (over 900 characters, over 1,200 in Mastodon count), quote-post, 19 hashtags (including 13 to trigger filters), Fediverse meta, non-Mastodon Fediverse meta, character count meta, character limit meta, over-500-characters meta, sarcasm
    "Write your posts as long as you want," they say.

    "Don't be apologetic about it," they say.

    "Literally everyone in the whole Fediverse has gotten used to posts over 500 characters, and nobody minds anymore," they say.

    "Literally everyone on Mastodon is perfectly okay with all of Hubzilla's antics," they say.

    "Nobody wants the Fediverse to only be vanilla Mastodon," they say.

    Oh, really? Then I've probably faked this shared post here.

    Being able to mute or filter posts that exceed 500 characters would be great.

    Search is not good because it returns too many dissertations.

  7. Posts over 500 characters with a mandatory CW, without a CW or banned entirely in the Fediverse?

    You've got until tomorrow to vote!

  9. @Geoff-by-Sea Now I'm curious: How often do people complain about your long posts or out-right block you for going on their nerves with over-500-characters-long posts?

  10. It's sometimes recommended to issue a #ContentWarning on #LongPosts ("CW: long").

    But where do long posts start? When does "CW: long" become necessary?
