My hot take: the next thing Mastodon should do is not just hold to the 64k limit (or raise it) but start evolving the desktop and mobile UIs to encourage longer posts. Twitter and Facebook's pivoting of our brains towards required brevity is a major part of how we all wound up in this hellscape out of Black Mirror. It's time to nudge people back towards normal attention spans.
@trinsec true enough, that I just had a hot take that easily fits in 500 characters. I'm as Twitter-poisoned as anyone, and just as much in need of developing more worthwhile things to say.
