2While MiB is unambiguously power-of-2 megabytes, MB is ambiguous and, depending on context, could mean power-of-10 (traditional) or power-of-2 (Microsoft terminology).– forest distrusts StackExchangeCommented May 30, 2019 at 0:23

Is the limit now 2 MB or 2 MiB? I'd prefer being able to upload 2097152-byte images rather than 2000000-byte ones.– user651518Commented Jan 9, 2020 at 17:32

@JL2210-SupportMonica that'd be much more convenient if the image uploader could automatically resize (or change compression) to the largest image possible, or close to it.. Manually doing so results in a lot of collective time wasted. Commented Jan 9, 2020 at 17:40
