Damn, I do need to enforce a character limit on this instance — I've made a reply on such a trivial topic a ~800 character post :marseyfacepalm:

True, but it makes the text less accessible — I might not be in the mood for something long myself, even though I might agree with it in the end.
When there's no limit, I often go for more spacious expressions and repeat myself — this can be eliminated with brief editing, but doing this for posts on a federated microblogging network seems like going into too much trouble.
I was attempting to write something fun for my gemlog and decided to describe a fun thing that had just happened to me — which was installing a program and finding out that it works differently compared to what I was expecting — turned out that it was in fact a different utility that had an identical name.
I ended up writing a three hundred word piece (!) only to realize that I'm not even remotely close to the punchline in that story — which could be summarized in one sentence. So I decided to stop halfway.
I do have to exercise some moderation in this regard 😅
