When people ask for their Mastodon character limit to be increased they often don't realize that custom code is required. It's one of many requests that we get for changes to the codebase of the services we host. What can we do?

Also, in the most loosely connected topic to Fediverse hosting Paige and Victor swap their favourite "independent documentaries" they've recently found on YouTube. THE PISS SAGA and Broke. Inside the Pawnshop: a world of bargaining, insults, poverty and desperation
