Kindly,

This is a very minor thing and is currently (TM) very infrequent. Appears to be less than 1% of non-empty profiles for sure. Also might go against the design philosophy of the project. Example at the end of this message

When using the user search tabs (user_listing flask template), there are some pages or user cards (HTML div for each user) that are too long.

There are a few ways to handle this but I'll just leave some facts here:

bio limit is 1500 characters long so there are ways to still pollute the search results like having every few lines contain a dot
removing all newlines would be a crap solution
trivial to insert a prune in the jinja filter that prints the bio. Something like:

... safe | truncate(50)

Example

For example, when searching for "florist", the following user has their card included in the search results:

https://rdrama.net/@carpathiamflorist

Below the image there are multiple pages of whitespace requiring a lot of scrolling. On a smartphone appears even worse but you can at least see the scroll bar moving.

Currently (TM), @carpathiamflorist's bio section in the profile is just a bunch of newlines due to some attempt at a penis joke (very large background image maximizes the zoom on the thing)
