Automatic Post Splitting

When pasting long format posts, give the option to split them into their own post. It would be helpful to be able to select how many characters you want, i.e. split post every 280 characters.
This way if folks are writing threads elsewhere and pasting them in it will be easier to format the long form post.

Hey Bill!
I'm sure you know that you can paste your long text into the first post, and it gets automatically split based on the number of characters supported by Threads (plus a more elaborated logic to do not split the sentences).
What's you example use case for splitting based on a different number?
Thanks! :D

Interesting, I did not know this! That is helpful.
Splitting by number of characters would let me get much closer to a finished post, but maybe it could be even smarter if I numbered the posts myself and it auto split at the numbers?
I’m typically writing in Apple Notes first.
Splitting by characters is typically helpful if writing in a specific style like 1/3/1 where all of your posts have relatively consistent structure.
Thanks!
