This is a minor update to fix an edge case that some users have run into in the past.

While Readwise does not impose any limits on how many highlights you can have, there is a system limit that highlights can't be any longer than 8191 characters long.

Generally speaking, if you're making highlights that long, you're missing the point of highlights but I've seen occasional reports of Kobo highlighting accidentally capturing an entire chapter.

Without this being obvious to the end user, they'll be confused when October appears to fail (as any error will cause the upload process to fail currently) so it's better to work around this issue than cause 99% of valid highlights to fail to upload I think.

The real fix for this is to delete those highlights on your device (find the highlight, tap it and hit delete) but for users who might want to make such long highlights for whatever reason, October will now split your highlight text into appropriate chunks.
