I have been trying to upload an animated WEBP file to use as part of a post, however I get an error that says the file is “too wide”.

The file in question has a resolution of 889x500, and a file size of only 3 MiB. Is this a problem with feddit.uk’s image upload settings specifically, or is there a general issue with Lemmy and pict-rs?
There is a pictrs setting to set max width and height for the different thing it supports (images, video and animation). I haven’t touched the settings myself. I’ll take a look in the morning and probably just disable them if they’re set. I don’t really see a good reason to limit dimensions, size is the maintenance burden.
Should work now, it was set to only allow 256×256 animations. The only limit now is the 5 MiB size limit. Example animated webp:

Perfect, thank you so much.
Finally! I was getting the same error too
