▲ 2 ▼ Keep getting image size too big when uploading images. What's the max size?

Lemmy.world has no problem uploading full size images from iphone.
[–] Ategon@programming.dev 1 point 3 years ago (1 child) I believe the limit is 1MB on all instances by default so should be what our current limit is as well permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] nieceandtows@programming.dev [S] 0 points 3 years ago* (last edited 3 years ago) (1 child) No it’s definitely higher on Lemmy.world. I uploaded the same image from there successfully (6.6mb). The limit seems to be on the resolution itself. I just exported the same image in the same resolution (4032x3024) but downscaled to 1.4mb and I’m still getting the too big error on programming.dev Edit: I could swear your comment said 2mb. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Ategon@programming.dev 1 point 3 years ago (1 child) yeah lemmy.world probably overrided the default limit with something higher. We havent done so yet so will still be on the default permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] nieceandtows@programming.dev [S] 1 point 3 years ago (1 child) I think 1MB is too low for a good user experience. Having to first have to first downscale images taken from the phone is a big point of friction for mobile users. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] StudioLE@programming.dev 1 point 3 years ago You can upload images to third party sites and post the link instead. permalink fedilink source parent
