no we should keep 500 on comments if it was 200 THAT would be too low

I think comments should remain at the limit of 500 characters, and in my opinion the “What I'm Working On” section should not be very long so I think a 500 character limit is fine, but the “About Me” section should be at least 1000. Remember, these are characters(letters, symbols, or empty gaps), not words, so do not over estimate the length of 1000 characters(often less than 250 words). The limit of 200 characters in the “About Me” section is depressing and should be changed(usually under 40 words and often under as little as 30 words). Do NOT forget that a space counts as a character! I wonder how many passionate scratchers would agree that 20 seconds is not enough time to introduce themselves.

Another amazing suggestion from over a decade ago that ST refuses to add for no reason? *sigh*

Support. I hate how limited it is and there's a lot I wanna say that I can't.

Support. I don’t think 200-ish characters is enough to fit a lot of things. This is one of the reasons why people have to resort to “About me” projects.

SUPPORT. I barely have space to write anything about myself, and I have to use as many abbreviations as possible. I think it should be increased to something around 1000 - 5000 characters.

I found a bit of a workaround. Not a full solution, but a temporary one until scratch decides to just add this already.
