i think the image size limit has been reduced some time ago, because of this i've encountered various situations where i had to manually compress images to be able to upload them. i think the size limit is at around 800kb, at least based on my experience. is there a way that images could be compress upon upload to avoid this? i genuiley rather have them look like a blurry mess than to have to edit them manually.

We don't wanna bundle a whole image compression library into the browser, so these have to be compressed beforehand.
