Many places do not have such restrictions

The encryption structure has its weight. So restrictions are necessary to runs properly the system.

I have a very nice phone. Removing the restrictions is necessary for me.

As @serrq mentioned the restriction is necessary so that messages in some messengers will not get splitted in multiple messages which would decrease usability. @Wjxfi you can always split your input message into multiple messages that are < 500 chars

I use a messenger that doesn't have this restriction. I'm not comfortable with restrictions. I want to be able to disable them in the settings. hedgehog. I'm not comfortable separating messages. @amnesica

Ordinary people won't turn it on, only some.

On second thought, I find the 500-character limit in email inconvenient. We all know that email allows at least 6000 characters in body field.

It would be inconvenient to split an email into small chunks. So why not introduce an extended mode? It is need an on/off switch in order to enable or disable extended mode.

I favor the +500 character posibility.
