I’ve had similar problems and this was the issue. The problem is there’s no way to know what the requirements are from a user’s point of view at the moment of posting, and the error doesn’t provide useful information, so it just looks broken.
I don’t know how much can be done within the app about the error messaging, but having a way to squish down the image in size and compression within the posting flow would be really helpful.
I have an app for combining two images into one. I found that just putting one image in it and saving almost always does the trick. Though, rarely, on some already small files it will actually make them bigger. But since I already use it it comes in handy instead of having to install a new app for that.
I agree. It’s fundamentally broken. 400 is useless. And when I searched I found zero clues. I even posted about it and got zero clues. Had to figure it out on my own.
