It can be made into a 2 year visa by leaving a fews days before it expires and coming back to Thailand. Each entry is 1 year, but if you stay more than 3 months without leaving, you will need to do a 90 day report. Simple process. Explained multiple times before in this group.
Keep doing it and it will stuff up your long-term plans for staying in Thailand.
Last year a guy who had stayed all through covid got a tourist visa from Cambodia and landed in Bangkok airport and they said no. They put him in the airport detention overnight and sent him back to Cambodia.
Get a tourist visa or two and after that you know if you want to stay longer term, get a proper visa, it will make your life less stressful.
