Perhaps this is more a feature request than a bug, but i view it as a design flaw.

Sites using large OG Images pose an issue to our sites.

When pasting a url with unfurl, it brings in a thumbnail.
reality - it brings in the full size image from the page un-compressed with forced dimensions.

This little image:
1766501759797.webp

is hitting close to 9MB of data.

Proxy should figure out a way to cache and compress to webp when enabled/stay reasonably sized, like 12kb not 9000kb.


live test doesn't unfurl here for some reason:



unfurl grabs to og image property
Code:
<meta property="og:image"       content="https://lightshiprv.com/uploads/pages/Homepage/HEADER_Images/TEst/Ligthship%C2%AE_AE.1TM_Atmos_ShadeMoss_Exterior_CampMode_Image_1.jpg">

1766502709057.webp

and you can see this image is huge.

Code:
 width="3840" height="3840"

Posting a link adds 2.6 seconds to the page view. It shouldn't.

Automated triage: Design issue

Thank you for reporting this issue. Link previews show the linked page's preview image at its original size, and the image proxy caches the file without changes. Neither feature makes a smaller thumbnail or converts the image. The software is working as it was built, and this request would need a design change.

This is an automated assessment. A member of staff may review and update it.
