To everyone who is using #soapbox FE:

It will shrink your uploaded image to be the 1/10 of size than the original!

If you don't want to being shrunk, you better to take a look at the image size after you uploaded or don't use soapbox FE to upload image or ask Alex why he did that.

What the hell.
This is completely intentional and I do it because I prefer images to be ugly.
Did you noticed while using tor, people are unable to upload images?
Hmm. That shouldn’t be a problem… Oh which instance?
He uses his porn filter first, anything that scores above .51 gets shrunk until it scores a blurry, unreadable .15

This image is 10.3 MB, 6583 x 4114px, try to upload this on your instance and see what happen.

@alex


>This image is 10.3 MB

This is exactly the problem
I doubt alex or anyone else hard-coded it, it's probably in the config files.
It’s hard-coded to shrink images bigger than 1920x1080 because that’s more than enough and you can reliable upload 8K photos from your iPhone from the Arizona desert.
>So 4k and 8k monitor users are subhumans!?

Yes that’s exactly what I said, glad you understand
