I know the issue has been answered before, but does anyone know if there exists some kind of work-around until the actual disable-image-upload is implemented in Lemmy?

Can you set a really small min file size for uploads?

I am sorry, but if you are running the instance, unless you are running a large instance, can’t you just not upload images yourself, and tell those that does have an account to not do it?

IIRC images also get federated over to your instance.

Ah, after rereading the post, that is probably what OP are looking for

Well, both. I want to grow my instance a bit and also don’t want other people to post weird stuff in my communities

You can set the allowed file size to be really low, but users will still be able to upload, or at least attempt it.

Where can I find that option? Is it during instance-setup?

Found it: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/17357923/9209304

On 0.19.3, you can:

Additional: On https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/blob/main/docker/nginx.conf, there is an option “client_max_body_size” that you can set to 0.
