Can black holes “eat” matter indefinitely or is there a limit? Do they ever have trouble absorbing large masses or is it always the same?

Yes, they can, so far as we know you gotta think of a black hole as a giant pile of dirt, rather than a hole. There is no limit to how big a pile of dirt can get. Only difference is that the pile get super compressed, supposedly down to an infinitely small point in space. They will just get more and more massive over time, and one theory is that is how the universe will “end”, with all matter and energy being absorbed into black holes.
