Can't upload photos in any forum, including /c/Photography (self.photography)

Can anyone else upload photos anymore? I haven't been able to do so in days. Is it an error with imagemagick? I keep getting some error that flashes briefly about exceeding maximum dimensions, but I used to upload just fine. Weird. Just asking, since I can't seem to post photos at all anwhere on discuss.online. I can try on another instance, just to see what's going on...

Odd. I can't post any photo if I try to "Create a Post" either in the Upload image field, nor can I upload if I create a blank post, then try to upload an image in the body of that blank message.

When i try to use the Upload an Image in the "Create Post" interface, I can choose the file, then it fails with the red banner in the lower left, saying something about image dimensions exceed limit. I didn't have that issue when I hit "Reply" to the photo you posted. That seemed to have worked just fine.

But, if I try to Create a post with a photo, it fails with the red banner warning on image dimensions, and if I try to Create a Post with just text, then try to edit it later and insert a photo, that fails with NO message or error indication of any kind. It just spins the icon for a bit, then returns to the text interface for the body of the message.

Bummer, as I love uploading photos.

Oh, this is in the web interface on Firefox on MacOS Monterey, 12.6.8. It fails the same way on Firefox on the Ventura beta as well. It also fails identically using both Safari and Chrome on those OSes.

I tried uploading from the Memmy app in iOS, but it fails with no error when uploading images. Just FYI.
