What is a "rate_limit_error" and is it something that can be adjusted? (lemmy.ca)

I receive a toast notification from the Jerboa app when trying to attach images to a post. I'm not sure if it's an app or a server limitation, so I'm starting here.

they're currently just at the defaults, which is 6 images/hour, which seems pretty low. at the same time i don't want to overwhelm the server (it's already having some hiccups here and there, and i've read that image processing on lemmy is cpu-intensive), so i'll just leave it as is for now, and revisit it later.

as an alternative, you could always put the images on third party image hosts, and link to them (although i know that's not ideal).

Thanks for the great response! I've been hosting gifs on pixelfed.social anyway, so I might just try hosting everything on there if it's an easier server load. That is, unless you know of a more local pixelfed instance I can use.
