@joaopinheiro@mastodon.social I completely understand.

I have a hard time anytime I need to post something meaningful in one of those limited instances.

But you could still consider a nice Glitch-Social instance for an account -- mine at Muensterland.social has a 5,000 character maximum, which is plenty. I am quite happy there, it's a small instance and you are welcome to come and sign up.

https://muensterland.social/about for details.

@rgx is now my Publisher's account and is working quite well for me.

Another good Glitch-Social, a small instance too, is https://kafuka.me/about -- the admin, Tom, had a chat with me and was convinced to raise the local limit to 1,500 characters.

His instance is well maintained and he will be delighted to get good users who add posts to the local Feed.

@design_RG @rgx @joaopinheiro I run several GlitchSoc instances to choose from: https://muensterland.social , https://mstdn.es , https://mastodon.bayern , https://social.dev-wiki.de (Part of GGC Project,I'm part of the admin team), https://toot.koeln (I'm only the server admin,not the owner).All of them allow 5000 chars per post because this 500 chars limit is nonsense.You can't have any detailed discussions with only 500 chars.There are already workarounds,meaning threads with many short post answering to each other,but why?!Just set a limit that allows real discussions and there's no need for workarounds anymore.Migrating to GlitchSoc is very easy: https://glitch-soc.github.io/docs/ and you can raise your limit by simply adding MAX_TOOT_CHARS=5000 to your .env.production.
