⚠️ I see many people (on iOS) who cannot upload media with the #Mastodon app.

This also happens with me sometimes, all seems to work but the 'Publish' button does not become 'active' so you can post.

I've made an issue here: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon-ios/issues/487

For now the solution seems to delete the media and re-upload it.

Or try-out another app until it's fixed. There are many you can choose from:

@stux yep. It’s been happening all day. Restarting the app, reloading the media, isn’t working yet. I figured it was just that things were overloaded. Today is only day2 for me here so I figured I’d wait it out. 🤷🏼‍♀️

@clsilva If you are on iOS, can you try the app 'Metatext'? Otherwise on Android 'Tusky' is a good option  

I wonder if that would fix the 'issue'!

That happens to me a lot - well I m #newhere so that's relative. Sometimes there is no problem at all, sometimes I can't publish fotos.

I'm having media upload issues in Fedilab on Android, too. I kind of assumed it was a traffic/resource issue.

@stux Yes I have the same issue but Metatext is working for me.
