    it’s as simple as editing a single config file

    It isn’t. Mastodon has a character limit hardcoded in two places. Critically, that’s not a limit on what it can receive and display, just on what local users can post. With Bluesky, it’s part of a schema that would be enforced on posts from elsewhere, if anybody was actually running a Bluesky-compatible appview in the wild.
