This is my “shitposting” account, but I’m now looking for a Lemmy instance to host a serious user account, on which I could contribute with some pictures. I created an account lemm.ee, but found out after the fact that image uploads there are limited to 100kB, which is quite small. Therefore my question: Is there a way to find out the image size limit of a Lemmy instance without registering there? I’m thinking of something like a page that shows the server configuration of an instance.

As far as I understand, the image limit is set by the instance where the user is registered, and not by the instance that holds the community on which the image is posted. (But correct me if that is wrong.)

Thanks

    There’s no way to tell the exact upload limit, unless the administrator has stated the limit somewhere.

    It’s the users home instance that decide the file size limit.
