There was, but there was concern about privacy and the ability of people to delete their posts remaining copied on the thread viewer.

@FediTips My #Mastodon server uses the official #Docker image, then automatically creates a new image with the post character limit increased to 3,000 and runs that image. Anytime I upgrade, the automation runs and produces the patched image. If it can’t patch, it lets me know so I can adjust the patch file.

Sure would be nice if @MastodonEngineering would just make this configurable.

@FediTips also, if the thread's posts contain content warning, it can be practical, to put the numbering to the content warning for better visibility

And why not allow 10.000 characters in a post, like my instance ?

@sam @vega

As Sam says, there's no official way for admins to change character limits on standard Mastodon. Those that do it have to edit several files and then re-do the edits every time they update the server software.
