The maximum file size limit for images hosted directly on lemm.ee servers is always visible in the sidebar of our front page. The limit stands at 500kb per image currently.
Additionally, It's also possible to post images larger than 500kb, they just have to be hosted externally. The markdown for this is
I run the same 500kb limit on my instance. It was becoming restrictive, so I added a feature to Tesseract that optionally preprocesses uploads to webp, client side, before uploading (with a user configurable quality level) which has worked well. Might be something to consider or perhaps can patch a similar preprocess step into your default UI.
Is there a list of suggested image hosts?
