I'd post the content directly, but there seems to be a problem with long text posts right now.

Any news on a fix for long text posts? Seems to me that's a huge issue that needs to be fixed ASAP if Lemmy is going to continue to grow.

Also, I'm not a developer and I know it's a lot more complicated than this...but still, like, 50k characters is like 50kb of data. Even a small .jpg is much more than that. To be fair Lemmy isn't the only site that struggles with this, but it's weird that posting a few pages of text is a struggle anywhere in 2023.
