@jacklaridian Disagree. Microblogging is a terrible format for long-form articles. Even on instances that don't have a character limit—say, Cory Doctorow putting his 4,000-word blog posts up on Mastodon in their entirety—I'd still rather read them on the original website, because Mastodon frontends aren't built for that kind of longread.
Now, if your blog post is only 500 characters long, then yeah, you could have just posted that on Mastodon. Pick the right medium for the message.
