    Some instances allow a longer character limit. It’s really just an option that the admin decides, most admins just keep, the default. if you have a greater character limit then longer toots will be under “show more”.

        Ok my bad. I didn’t know you couldn’t change it at all without using a fork. That’s a bit of a shame I think. To be honest the more I think about it Mastodon isn’t always the best thing to host anyway unless you are planning on a large community.
