my last couple memes, I had to shrink them down until they were pretty embarrassingly bad before I could upload them. maybe I don’t know what I’m doing when it comes to reducing a file size? but it would be nice if we could upload larger files

    That’s a per-instance thing. Each instance admin configures the size of files allowed, so you’ll have to ask your admin.

      Built-in resizing of images to a certain size in-app would be nice but that might be a lot of work for not much.

        Unfortunately no, but it would be nice of the Lemmy devs made it public as part of the nodeinfo endpoint.
