Note is too long to sync

Hi,
I would like to report an issue,

I'm spotting and error when Zotero is performing a sync of a pretty huge note, based on highlights and annotations from a pdf file.

The note consists of approximately 9_000 words, and 53_000 characters, and is build up of a few hundreds of highlights and annotations. I am using a lot of colors to highlight notes.

I guess some additional metadata made sync error with this "moderate" amount of characters in a note?

The error message:
'''
The note “Annotations (3/22/2024, 9:47:32 AM)” is too long to sync. Shorten the note and sync again.
'''

    I have the same problem (Zotero 7, 7.0.0-beta.68+c31a40c74)

    My note - a stand alone note - is approximately 260.000 characters long.

    (The note takes up 2.6 mb when inserted into a word document along with some figures I copied into the note)

    Anyway to increase the size limit?? Zotero can handle larger files that that

    .. I know it is along note, but researching many articles on a topic and extracting information would easily bring you in that ballpark of characters. I assume it to be a fairly frequent use case.

    Thanks for your work on Zotero :-)
