Limitless Characters in Note

It’s incredibly frustrating that there is a character cap in Card’s Notes.

Like more advanced mind-mapping tools, you can input lengthly articles or strings of text / keywords to describe the Card / entity.

This then makes your entire board a functional mind-map to search within.

For example, as an author, I am currently treating each article headline of mine as a Card. I planned to paste the article text within the note (unfortunately capped). My plan would to then be able to search my board for keywords (words/phrases mentioned within my written articles (in the Card’s notes)) and then be able to locate. My plan was to as publish this entire board for visitors to search my work and be pointed towards an article that I’ve written.

A work around is Tags, but even that is limiting too.

I would pay SO much money to be able to access this feature

Yeah, the first time I bumped into this limit, I was pretty shocked.  It felt like an app from 1995.  If fixing this serious limitation is TOO BIG, it might be nice to at least offer some half-way solutions in Miro.  for example:   if I open a note (or sticky or whatever) and try to paste something in that is too long, it could say “too much text, shall I spawn however-many-notes you need to capture it all?”.    e.g. in my case I often am trying to paste an email into Miro -- and if it is too long I need to hand-chop it all up… it would be cool if it would accept the paste, but create a series of notes that capture everything (ideally in some smart way -- so each note/card is not totally maxed out -- e.g. in each note perhaps it would paste as-much-as-possible to leave a 50 character buffer).
