I’ve been trying to post a - rather long - comment for a while, and it’s just not going through. It just instantly disappears on old.lemmy.world, and sits there spinning on the main site - while one-liner comments elsewhere have worked as normal. I’m not getting errors, but that’s kind of par for the course. Could it be length related?
Odd, see this comment by another user: https://lemmy.nz/comment/1683278
They link to a post where they originally had 10k but were able to edit it to be a lot larger. You are both on lemmy.world so it seems you should be able to do it. Maybe try editing and adding stuff to see if that 10k cap is only when originally posting? Maybe when updating to 50k they might have missed a validation that got left at 10k.
I just tested it and it actually works! This is really cool, thanks for sharing ;) my guides tend to be VERY in-depth and so far I always had to either cut out paragraphs that weren’t too important or post multiple parts of something that would have been better suited as a single guide. But knowing that I can just edit in 40k more characters later makes this a lot easier. ♪
Haha that’s crazy. Glad it worked!
