Consider increasing character limit on "How is yours different from" question

Current problem

When there are 5 "similar posts", all subtly different and none of them same as your issue, 500 character limit can be a bit low. I've ran into this when reporting https://feedback.fluxer.com/p/3965/viewing-global-profile-does-not-show-global-display-name - I was asked about 5 issues which I had to address separately since they were all subtly different. For reference, this is what I ended up writing, reaching 498 characters:
#331 refers to global profile preview in user settings (and I believe it has been fixed). #2949 refers to community profile, not the global profile (and it refers to that profile showing FluxerTag which is not what I'm experiencing, perhaps it's fixed). #2976 refers to full profile of the community profile preview in user settings. #1785 refers to the mobile app (and is marked fixed). #2636 refers to view all reactions modal, not anything to do with the profile modal (and is marked fixed).

Proposed change

Consider increasing the character limit on the "How is yours different from ...?" question. The max number of similar issues appears to be 5 so, with 200 characters per issue, you'd be at 1000 characters instead of the current 100 characters per issue/500 characters in total. Maybe it would make sense for the character limit to depend on the number of similar issues.
