Just got a report of an issue at Stonehearth, it seems clicking on the upload button in the post composer toolbar says “Add an image” and “select images from your device” and makes no mention of file uploads. There are multiple file types allowed, any idea why it doesn’t say “Add an image or a file” and list the allowed extensions like here at Meta?
