Hi guys,

I just experienced a wierd issue with image federation to #Mastodon.

This post contains 50Mpix image that never federates from #Friendica to Mastodon. Snac and Pleroma does not try to cache the image, so #federation to them works.

Shouldn't be thumbnail federated instead of full size image? Is this bug of Friendica or Mastodon?

I'm on 2024.12 so far, Yuno did not updated packages yet.

Thank you for help

Ne, ale když jí rozkliknu, tak jo.

So far it seems only Mastodon is affected .. got Snac, Pleroma and Misskey confirmed as working

OK, one question: why would you want to send a 50Mpix image via social media?

Someone who expect things to "just work" :)

I can imagine use cases where you actually want picture this big, but these are corner cases. Yet I'd totally expect both sides to handle it somehow (resizing, linking to original, whatever).
