Can we please get the 10K char post limit raised to 50K or even 100K chars in v0.18? Many mods are desperate to get their wikis/guides ported from reddit and this has been a showstopping issue.
This is a UI issue. As a temporary solution, you can modify the post (maxlength) using your browser's dev tools until lemmy devs implement a fix.
I'm not having any luck with that solution. Can you please explain further?
The v0.18 test instance is already showing
maxlength="50000"
in the post body textarea and still failing withinvalid_body_field
for any posts over 10K chars. The github issues above mention that it's the backend that is limited to 10K.
