Mastodon next release features
I wish they implement hashtags lists
Was requested 4 years ago with over 300 possitive reaction
Cool, let me know when they remove character limits and figure out how to apply language filters to hashtags.
Isn’t character limits an instance setting?
You can modify the code but there’s no “setting” in vanilla Mastodon. The request has been denied by Mr. Rochko himself, despite protests from the greater community.
you can modify the limit settings in the /validators/status_length_validator.rb file and reboot mastodon :) i did that and now i have 1000 char limit
Yes, that is what I said.
It is, but maybe they mean they want no limit whatsoever on post length.
which, well, if your instance starts sending out megabyte-sized text posts I don’t expect it to stay federated with many others for very long.
I mean, just set the limit to a ridiculously high number then? I’m not aware that Lemmy has any in-built limits, but I could be wrong.
I believe that Mastodon instances with limits only link to external posts that exceed the limit, they don’t display the whole post.
Of course you can always run into network limits if you get huge posts, but that applies to everything and doesn’t have anything in particular to do with Mastodon.
i would love them to give us nuclear blocking that actually works across all instances (granted there are less jerks on fediverse but it doesn’t hurt to plan)
Based as always.
