If its long-form is it still microblogging or just plain blogging?
It supports both, which is why I like Tumblr's format the most. You can make short status updates like Twitter or long, informative articles on the same blog and it doesn't look out of place.
Mastodon's default 500 character limit is arbitrary, and can be changed by the instance admin, but most other AP alternatives (check out calckey) don't have a limit. It'd be cool if Tumblr does actually federate though.
