Are multi-line titles a bug, or is this a change bots/API tools need to handle?? iOS app is now allowing these, and it's causing chaos; can't notify users, since none of them can see collapsed pinned posts

Post Body

As previously reported here.

We now have multiple reports of iOS devices being affected, and a steep increase in broken/rejected posts as a result, which is causing much difficulty for users and our team.

This is causing pretty major issues for us, as our bot and tools were designed with the once-reasonable expectation that certain post fields like titles would never contain multiple lines of text, and the fix we would have to implement to support multiple lines here is pretty non-trivial.

Is this a bug on Reddit's end, or is this intended behavior now that it has rolled out to an additional platform?
