If I open the .svg directly in my browser (visit https://raw.githubusercontent.com/marionebl/svg-term-cli/refs/heads/master/examples/parrot.svg) or view it on GitHub (here in the README.md for example: GitHub - marionebl/svg-term-cli: Share terminal sessions via SVG and CSS), it is rendered properly.

.svg is enabled as an upload type and I don’t think there is an issue with the size of the .svg.
