Could the tool help me select a Mastodon server that allows more than 500 characters per post?

There have been some servers where the moderation allowed only posts written on English. That's not fair and I'd like you avoid them. Can the tool help with that, too?

Feel like this is a good suggestion.

One of the most common questions is how to find larger character count instances.

@mastodonmigration @sloanlance @dansup Since Mastodon does not show that information in the API, they would have to scrape the remaining characters count in the posting box, which means having bot accounts on all the instances.

So, @Mastodon would have to officially support changing the character limit first.

Makes sense. Too bad.

@sloanlance @dansup on small instances, it is only fair on the moderators that they can insist that post are in a language they can understand, otherwise, how can they do thier job of moderating?
