Most recent example:
the site (or at least lemmy.world) is sooo slooow. Basic functions like loading images take me back to the dial-up era of “click the image then do something else while it loads,” which is downright ridiculous in the 2020s. Again I’ve stuck with it because I want to support the fediverse, but 99% of users won’t.
You can cap maximum image upload size that lemmy instances will host with pict-rs, and the limit varies by instance, as admins have chosen different settings.
It looks like currently, lemmy doesn’t tell clients about the limit ahead of time, just fails it:
