Post

If Bluesky wants to overcome the phenomenon of politicians posting long-form content on X and then only posting a screenshot of their X post on Bluesky, we need long-form posts here finally please.

In a way, it is somewhat astonishing that there is not a "long-form post as image" service that automates this whole process for Bluesky, since the 300 character limit seems to be religiously held. There is also the fact that alt text for images have a 2000 character limit, and those get indexed.

I don't understand the religious fixation onto 300 chars

The usual proponents will tell you that they prefer short posts because it forces people to be concise and choose their words well (instead of unnecessarily long formulaic blabbering), but IMO the pros outweigh the cons, and I'd rather have the choice as a user.

just leads to posts being so short that you can't convey all the needed information about a topic or it being posted as a link to any third-party site or it not being posted at all

I assume that may also be a reason why long-from content is not going to happen inside the official client. Which is extremely annoying.
