Is it just "above the size limit"? I tried uploading an image in a comment in two different formats (first a PNG of about 1 MB and second a JPG of about 150 kb). Both failed with this error.
I eventually gave up and used an external host. As an aside, wow, imgur seems to have purposefully broke mobile desktop. It used to be possible to upload on mobile by using the desktop site, but now it errors out. It's hard to assume good faith when imgur has made so many bad decisions lately.
I think I read somewhere that the image size limit for lemm.ee is 100kb.
Well, that would certainly explain it. 100KB is pretty tiny though. It'd be nice to have it try to resize client side to get under the limit, too (I always wondered why more image uploaders don't do client side resizing).
