so what is the difference between normal text and long text? sizewise, how many charachters normal text and long text can have?

Normal text is limited by the Gemini request max length of 1024 bytes, which is about 500-800 characters depending on language and use of special symbols.
Long text is basically unlimited, a few GB, but on this capsule the server's Titan upload limit is 1 MB (by default on GmCapsule).
EDIT: Long text is max 16 MB, but the upload limit here 100 KB.

Thank you for explaining long text for me!

Actually, I double-checked the code and have to correct myself. bbs.geminispace.org has a 100 KB Titan upload limit, so each long text segment can contain up to that much text. (The GmCapsule default is 1 MB.)
The database schema allows up to 16 MB per text segment. You can still compose a longer post from multiple segments, though. It would be pretty easy for one to edit the database to make `segments.content` a LONGTEXT, allowing 4 GB per segment.
drafting test — i'm drafting this i assume you can only have one poll per post, and it has to be at the end. i couldn't 'add long text' whatever that means
