Heeeeydiho
i used a Tutorial to change the Character Limit from Mastodon from 500 to 10000 Chars, it all went well no errors, i recompiled and reloaded with “systemctl restart mastodon-sidekiq.service mastodon-streaming.service mastodon-web.service”
when i use
https://blog.xxxxxxxx.xyz/api/v2/instance it even shows
statuses
max_characters 10000
registrations:
max_toot_chars 10000
so everything well uh? no i still can only post 500 characters somehow? any reason?
Yes. without any problem. If you use Mastodon vanilla you may find that you have to scroll long and hard because it doesn’t collapse the post with a “Show more”, but not much more
Many Mastodon clients and Mastodon forks already handle this issue adequately, as do other software in the fediverse such as Pleroma/Akkoma and the Misskey forks.
