Why can't we upload 200mb+ images?

This is very annoying, everytime I want to upload any print screens I saved using mspaint they are much bigger than 200mb, then I'm required to find an website that allows me to compress the images, and I have to compress then multiple times until they finally meet greasyfork requirements.

Why does greasyfork has such a low requirement of only 200mb images at max?

Can't greasyfork at least automatically compress the images?

Sometimes after uploading and compressing and redoing this process a couple times for the same image I get a message saying that they can't be compressed more than they already were https://i.imgur.com/0VahfiP.png

I use ezgif and/or tinypng to compress the images.
Also, jpg in most cases will be smaller in size than png.
Choosing the right format is key btw.

You might want to give WEBP a try.

200MB is absolutely massive. Do you mean 200KB?

But yes, choose the right format, and scale if necessary.

Yeah, I meant 200KB.
allowing 1 MB images would already be great, or at least 500KB

try this website, the default lossy compression works amazingly: https://squoosh.app/
