@philip @adele It doesn't break anything.
The protocol that the Fediverse is based on (ActivityPub) doesn't specify post limits. Using a platform like GotoSocial with a 50000-character limit is more than adequate for long-form posting.
The markdown formatting is good, but I use it sparingly as not all the platforms support it completely... But in general, it is widely supported.
If you are thinking about blog replacement, there are other platforms that support ActivityPub. WriteAs / WriteFreely, WordPress, and Ghost, have ActivityPub support.
If you are technically inclined you can look into using a static website generator with ActivityPub.

Thanks for the info. My current blog https://wittamore.fr is self built with php/bash, and contains mostly short entries with the occasional prose. It's looking like Gotosocial will be more than enough for this.

I do the same, my main blog is in php and convert markdown files on the fly on https://pages.casa/
But Gotosocial could be my preferred platform if I had to choose only one
