Discord caps standard messages at 2,000 characters. Keep rules, release notes, and code readable with one link instead of a chain of broken messages.
Discord's standard message cap is 2,000 characters (4,000 with Nitro). For anything longer, paste the full text into a shareable page and send a single URL in the channel. Use textdrop.sh to make the link in your browser, then share the link instead of the sensitive text.
Paste the full text, create the link, then post a short introduction and the link in Discord.
Discord's official support documentation sets the standard message cap at 2,000 characters; Nitro raises it to 4,000. Formatting, emoji, and code fences count toward the same limit, so a polished announcement can hit the ceiling sooner than expected.
