hi #MastoAdmins,

Is there any way to limit the size of files you receive from other instances?

My #Mastodon server often receives huge files -- 100s of MBs in size (videos). I'd rather block them. My Media Usage can get out of hand very quickly.

I can see anything in the docs.

I also run a #GoToSocial instance, and I can limit what I receive. It just means the user has to click a link to open the file on the remote instance. Seems a great solution.

Thanks

Please consider Limiting the service while members attempting to move complete that action.

Suspending a service severs all relationships and is unrecoverable.
