Unable to post images - Jerboa & Firefox (mander.xyz)

This is a new problem for me that started a couple days ago. Using Jerboa and Firefox, I'm unable to post images on this instance. I am able to post images to the same communities using a different instance account. I am getting "network error" and Java errors (I'm unable to see the full error) while using Jerboa. On Firefox, I get an "image too large" error for 12 MB (edit: not GB, that'd be a huge image) images (not sure the limit) but "SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data" at smaller image sizes. I was able to post images on this instance before this. My Jerboa app is up to date. Any solution?

This makes sense. Sometimes my/our reflexive habit is More!, Bigger!, Faster!, and see where that's gotten our planet... Well, thank you for what you do :)

Hahaha, I'm often guilty of that too. And I think it does make sense in many cases - with physical hardware that one buys, for example, it would not make sense to start very small and upgrade a lot. It is better to start a bit bigger.

But since the server is running on a cloud server that can be changed easily, I can take this luxury in this case. I just have to move a slider, so it's easy to do upgrades gradually:

so tempting to just push that little slider aaaalll the way to the right 🙊
