@Samirr@mastodon.social @Full_marx @freemo You are very welcome!
A suggestion, maybe in the future when you feel more confident, explore around and see the different instances. There might be one where you feel more at home, with a theme more aligned with your interests, etc.
There are many, many servers/instances to consider.
@design_RG @freemo where did that samir guy go?
I was gonna coax him into joining Qoto !!
He has vanished. Shouldn’t instance handles remain the same even if someone changes instances? I saw the forwarding option in prefs or profile.
We need an advertising strategy !!
Qoto’s 60k charachter limit is something people don’t even know about !!
@Full_marx @freemo
Now, if one of our posts is long, does it get accepted and shown properly in the other instances?
Or it gets truncated? It would be interesting to know.
@freemo Ah, wonderful, TY!
@Full_marx
@Full_marx @freemo Oh, man, yes, looks like his account is gone; shows without a link underline in one of my posts above. 😔
The larger post size is indeed a BIG difference. Even the regular 500 chars in many instances is already twice what twitter allows.
Bringing a post from here to there is a pain in the but as a result. 😃
BTW, I have been visiting other instances, for curiosity, and noticed a few mentioning 50 K chars as their limit.
Also noticed, just now with my computing history megapost, that Pinafore is hard coded to allow only 500 chars.
It gave me a Red text, -3600 chars count when I finished typing it there. Had to swith to the qoto web instance and post if from there instead.
