Cut toot in half when they’re too big
Got a proposal for this:
- retrieve the tweet_content
- retrieve the reply_to status (this too-long-toot might be part of a thread)
- invoke a function that would cut the toot in half
- split the toot by
- count the number of parts
- join with
- join with
- split the toot by
- post the first half inside the thread if any
- replace the content of tweet_content with the second half
- replace reply_to status with the content the id of the first half
- proceed as normal
This means that:
- media, if any, will still be attached to the second half
- cut will be done by « word » so it might be problematic
