What is the limit? This <textarea> element does not specify one, nor do I see any limit mentioned in the text of this web page.

I want to post an extremely long comment and see what the limit is now…

It seems to be 10k chars.

Otherwise, it displays a "message too long" error.

10k characters might be a browser limit, but I tried pasting 9,000 characters from one of my essays into a comment, and it was also rejected as being too long.
