Unpopular opinion? I don’t think #Mastodon forks should increase the character count, especially not to 10K or more.

I got the impression this corner of the #fediverse is for microblogging. Micro. There are other #fediverse places for full-blown posts, essays, etc. I thought these functional distinctions were one of the core purposes OF a fediverse in the first place.

What’s next for forks - creating events? A marketplace? Please no.

When I see a giant wall of text here I just scroll now. 🤷🏻‍♂️

And personally, I scroll past posts that are too short since they don't normally have anything to say.
