   I wish that images were scaled down from remote resources on the #fediverse. Sending the whole actual image isn't friendly on clients. Being able to report a max size or max dimension for a resource / type could be cool.

     I don't know if this is something built into #ActivityPub or provable by the #ActivityPub spec. I _think_ it can be done in the #IndieWeb since it's parsing largely HTML; if you use <picture> tags with <source media=> set then you can just pick out the matching media for your device and go from there

     Could even take it one step further by using HTML as one's API (hat tip to @aaronpk on https://aaronparecki.com/2015/04/26/22/html-is-my-api) to peek at the <source type=> to even filter out particular media types in advance using a whitelist on the client's side.

     That could be extended for the <video> and <audio> tags too.
