    Not trying to tell anyone what to do, but a 12mb pic might be a bit of a burden for the Fediverse to federate. Particularly when it could be a tiny fraction of that size and still get the job done.

        Looks like it actually did. It seems it downsized the dimensions & detail until it’s now a mere 275k large. Hopefully that’s the version that federated.

        I’m guessing I was worried over nothing much, and sorry to bother you. Thanks for the share!

          I think it’s kinda unrealistic to put this burden on the user. If big images are an issue, then Lemmy/PieFed should compress images, either on the client side or at the API level.

            Agreed. I’m instinctively a bit concerned over this stuff due to being an old git pretty much trained by the hardware of the day. Back in the day.

    Why is this marked nsfw? (I actually got kinda nervous opening this in public (given the community name))
