Error on post # #kbinEarth
green_copperCan you give some more details? Like what you wanted to post and how?
welp, I tried to post it all in a comment and got the sameerror, broke it into two and was able to post, must be a length limit. I didn't think there was one, but I guess I hit the "no really mbin isn't for blogs" cap. Makes me sad really, guess I do need to spin up that indieweb site I keep musing on.
Yep, your text is too long. Below the textarea (left corner) is a counter which shows you how much chars you used and how much the maximum is. Here the max is 5000.
I'm surprised it let you submit the post and not show an error with an proper message.
I can see why it troubles you. But on the other hands admins and devs need to set limits to prevent bad actors from using up the server resources with just a few requests.
I'm sure that there are other Fediverse platforms which allow much larger text, so these might be something for you (or your host your own as your said).
