I'm puzzles as to why anyone would routinely post threads to Mastodon rather than moving to an instance without a short limit.

Don't know which is worse, really. At least some at least unlist from the second post onwards, kinda mitigates.

I don't think long posts in Mastodon are a bad thing at all. I self-host and I changed the character limit to 50000.

By default, Mastodon will collapse long posts in feeds. If you don't want to see long posts, you don't have to click to expand them.
