I like to use a simple text editor to break down a conversation and build a reply. Once I copy and paste that text I can’t get it to post while using AOSP/Graphene OS with photon or the default browser interface. I’ve tried multiple simple text editors.

I can write code with these editors, transfer them to PC and run without issues. The text editor does not add formatting. I have also used various methods to display the text from the text editor in a browser (Vanadium) as markdown and as HTML. I have tried copy pasta with these as well, with no success. I have tried copying paragraphs only and adding these individually to see if maybe there is an issue with carriage return or similar, but that does not work either.

I’m aware of the limitations of Lemmy DM. DM is still the path of least resistance for a conversation where privacy is not a major concern.

EDIT: It is a content length issue. There is no warning about this. At a minimum there should be a note about a character limit.
