Mastodon: Avatar and Emoji sizes too big

Created on 27 Jun 2019 · 2Comments · Source: tootsuite/mastodon

This may be related to #3807. I understand that #3807 suggests images in a larger size for accessibility but i think that shouldn't affect the image sizes for the web UI

Expected behaviour

Avatars and pixel Emoji should be fetched in an appropriate size for the location they are displayed in.

Actual behaviour

Avatars and pixel Emoji are fetched in their "original" size (400x400) even though they are only displayed much smaller (48x48).

Steps to reproduce the problem

4_654

Specifications

Mastodon 2.9.0

Firefox 67.0.2

partially a bug wontfix

I can verify that this is happening with Mastodon 2.9.2 on macOS Safari 12.1.1, Non-Retina display.

Sizes up to @3x are understandable for display on various devices (though I would suggest srcset/sizes attributes for this) but more than @8x seems wasteful
