I think this is a fairly straightforward suggestion: there is currently no way on a truncated post to tell how much content you're adding to your feed, and sometimes it can be a lot more than you bargained for! the most obvious implementation of this would be to give the length in word count, but if possible I think it would be nice to have the measurement presented in a spacial measurement - something like "3 screens" meaning "this will add 3x the height of the current viewport to your feed" would be an extremely intuitive way to present this information, although from the technical side of things I'm not sure how viable it would be to actually implement.
