Profile Overview Description doesn't limit the number of characters one can use

[trader-payne]

Title self explanatory, users are not word/character limited when setting the short description in their profile.

Also, the description doesn't break strings of text written in one block(?) either ( -- I don't know how to explain this, check the pic below, basically the first line of WOOO's)

The end result looks a little bit extreme lol (taken with full screen capture)

Hahahah this is so funny. Easy fix though, we'll push it up with the next release

Nena, whatever you pick as a character limit, I should also limit in the subgraph. We don't want people to be able to upload 1000000 characters in the subgraph to begin with. But we should both do it. Because the best I can do is either make it blank, or else slice the string to the char limit

Yep this is implemented on staging, will push it up soon. Max length: 300 characters @davekaj

This is fixed. We will have a more sophisticated char count (like we do in Everest) when I have more time. Currently drowning in work..

@nenadjaja I just realized this is present for website and repo fields too.

Should I open a new issue for this or should I remind you about it later?

[nenadjaja]

I have it in Linear, thanks! what should be the limit, I am not sure

Good question 😄
