I repeatedly get this error `"Loading failed"` when creating a _Tag group_ with over 199 tags (counting for about ~1769 chars in total). After reaching some number of tags or the total chars (for all tags), I can no longer add more tags to this group.

Is it by design or a bug?

I tried few different tag names and saving a group doesn’t fix this either (i.e. allow to add more tags later).

This is a fresh Discourse install but I get similar error on other installations (all single container on a separate VPS with plenty of RAM and disk space).

Now, I trimmed the `Virgin-Islands` to `Virgin-Isl` and successfully added it, but the next tag cannot have even a single char 🤪
