Reddit character limit

A Reddit post body can have up to 40,000 characters. The title is separate and can have up to 300 characters. When Reddit opens on PostDelegate, it will send post bodies of up to 10,000 characters.

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.
