       Mastodon's 500 char limit is crazy when it's so easy to add a screenshot and then a 1200 word alt text (which I just did in a reply to @juliank ) - it's encouraging the use of a screenshot when pasted text makes much more sense.

       @penguin42 I didn't realise there were instances still using that limit.

       @edavies @penguin42 It's still the default, with no easy way of changing it, AFAIK.

       @edavies Hmm what are others using, if there's some agreed larger number, we can try talking @xvilo into upping it.

       @penguin42 @mansr  Functional café uses 2500. Octodon was something similar.Mastodon.scot still has 500 which was one reason I didn't make it my primary account when I moved off Octodon.@xvilo

       @edavies @penguin42 @mansr Apparently it appears to not be a standard setting, these instances have modified the source code and this should be re-done or re-checked on every update, not a big fan personally

       @xvilo @edavies @mansr Oh that's a PITA.

       @penguin42 @edavies @mansr I could maintain a fork, or maybe there is one (which poses additional security risks). I was on planning migrating to kubernetes, so that would make it even more difficult as we then need different docker image, a feature request on GitHub could be supported- https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/5697#issuecomment-345078582- https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/12265
