I will share the other pictures from my dive in the next post. But this ancient absolutely massive Hawksbill Sea Turtle deserves its own post. This guy was probably about 1.8 meters long and he didn't even react when I got super close to film him munching down. It is 1000% cooler in the video I'll be uploading soon.

I should call it an early day, probably.
The lack of sleep is hurting me! 😐

It amazes me, the number of trackers and cookies these tech news sites that talk about privacy, among other things, have.

Yup! Koyu.space has a 16,384 character limit! 😎 😃
qoto.org has a 65,535 character limit! 😃
That's about Mastodon!

Most Pleroma instances have a 5000 character limit or higher.
blob.cat has 50,000;
Another instance, I forget the name of which has 5 million;
anime.website has 2.147 billion character limit! 🙃
😁
Not kidding at all!

@strawberryfieldsforever This is just one of the many reasons I dislike Mastodon. Back when I ran it, I used glitch-soc and set the limit to 2000 or something. Now that I'm on Pleroma, it's 5000 and I never have to worry about breaking my replies up into 3 different posts :comfy:

>The 500 character limit was strongly disliked at first but now we are accustomed to it and appreciate it for what it encourages.

I have no clue what it encourages, because my instance doesn't follow this limit :comfyuwu:

>Who determines whether a link is misleading?

Moderators? Admins? I have no clue, really.

>Did they fork before Eugen renamed 'toots' to 'posts'?

They seem to follow the upstream. Check out their github.

>Before he stopped subscribing new users to the Admins?

Whatever accounts new users are subscribed to is configured per instance.

@newt
The 500 character limit was strongly disliked at first but now we are accustomed to it and appreciate it for what it encourages.

You can split large post if needed.

Any valid PGP signature should not be included in the count, like domain names for instances are not included.

PGP elements should display differently to normal text so it doesn't attract attention.

Do you find the 500 character limit in Mastodon low?
