@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.

@Full_marx
Hia account was likely suspended and deleted. Thats the only time that happena. Should have snagged him up sooner, M.S is quick to deal out suspensions.

Qoto’s 60k charachter limit is something people don’t even know about !!

@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.

@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.
