I normally wouldn't have to. I could post so many characters that Mastodon rejects my post, and Mastodon only rejects posts over 100,000 characters.
The reason why I chose to cut this post up is because not few Mastodon users refuse to read anything over 500 characters. And they may pretty well be part of the very target audience of these posts.
