This would be a nice feature, but it doesn't seem like other clients are doing this. My concern is that splitting the message at the "right" place will be difficult. But in the new release I've included how many characters you have left till you reach the limit. You still has to quit your editor, so I agree the problem still exists.

I suggest if this feature (which imho is super handy and useful and all mastodon clients should implement it) is implemented, it would be almost critical to be able to define the characters to connect the threads. I propose having two strings in the config file, one for the end of a toot that is not the last toot in the thread, and one for the beginning of the toots that are not the first toot in a thread. For instance I personally use "๐๐ผ

One possibility could be to allow the user to specify where to split the long messages. The app can still verify that the chunks don't overflow the server's character count (before posting), and allow the user to go back to editing in the overflow case.
Of course if multi-post thread posting is supported, it would be ideal if there was a way to add media, CWs etc at later posts in the thread too. I've been working on adding a similar feature to toot (which I've been using so far), using YAML-style metadata before each chunk.

The aerc email client, also written in go, use a couple of lines above and below your editor, to show you things like what server you're connected to and parts of the email header, perhaps tut
could do something similar? Then you could at least occationally write to your temporary toot file and have tut
show the character count without you having to exit and re-enter the editor.
