Advertise max toot / bio length in api/v1/instance #128

Closed agateblue closed 5 years ago

agateblue commented 5 years ago

Whenever I try to write a toot with Tusky from an account using my Florence server, I'm still limited to 500 chars, despite the server being configured to allow longer toots.

I initially thought it was Tusky-related, but apparently, Tusky do support configurable toot length. After checking /api/v1/instance on my server, I see no trace of the bio and toot length limit.

Do you think it could be possible to add those here, so Mastodon clients can reflect the configuration?

I'm incredibly biased (as I work with Tusky), but yes, I'd like us to add this.

Let's say it could also benefit other Mastodon clients, then :D

I believe that these are in the code so I'll check later to figure out why this is.
