That is, overall, my view of the character limit situation too, that the character limit forces nuance to be lost and contributed to some of the issues Twitter had pre-Elon (Elon’s influence on Twitter culture has been far more harmful though). More what I meant is that I’m a novelist as a hobby and I’m sometimes too verbose in my writing. An artificial character limit might help me practice writing tight, punchy sentences.
I also tend to be a bit long winded. I enjoy using a diverse diction and try to maintain some grammatical consistency. Neither of those things are well expressed on short-text platforms. Like even this comment feels too long for Twitter or Mastodon.
