There is no rational reason for Mastodon to limit posts to 500 characters by default.

If the limit was 100s of KB, people who still wanted to divide every thought up into a thread still could; nothing stopping them.

@gruber I agree that Apple will probably do everything they can to shut this down, via code or lawyers, because monopolists gonna monop. But the only way it is "untenable" to have unsanctioned client software is if the protocol is no good. That is classic security through obscurity.

The only way to truly trust iMessage is for the protocol to be public, and for there to be adversarial clients trying to crack it, with full knowledge of how it works, and still failing.

I have accounts on both Bluesky and the Fediverse, and even Nostr. Yet the way I use all three is very very different.
