Saw a [Reddit post](https://www.reddit.com/r/Diablo/comments/zhqt68/_/) about a promotional press image for Diablo IV that is 109MB in size and 12000x12000 and wondered if it would be possible to upload it to Discourse, and if so, how long it would take.

Managed to upload it from my phone in just 20 seconds for processing and upload 🎉

It was downscaled to 1920x1920 and 208KB.
