Hi 🙂  
I have an issue with Comments component, to limit its characters capacity to let say 100 to not let users to type infinite characters number.  
I can not add Rich text component therefore I can not use CSS at least I think so.  
What do you think about it. Is there any solution to that issue?  
Thanks in advance.

You can’t do much with the native comments component. The most straightforward way is creating your own Comments table, where you can limit the text entry’s characters. It eats up your row count, though.
