Facebook character limit
A Facebook post can have up to 63,206 characters. Most of that is hidden behind “See more”, so put the point in the first lines.
How this counter counts
Each Unicode character counts as 1. Some emoji are built from several characters, such as a skin tone or a family, and count as more.
