    Resize without resampling is not resource intensive and appear not as good as resampling.

    Still server has to

    1. Accept file (needs bandwidth and storage space)
    2. Resize (needs storage, RAM and CPU)
    3. Clean up (needs CPU)

    I don’t know lemmy has this feature or not. Even if not, as Lemmy server get mature this feature might get implemented. Server might allow admin toggling this feature.

    Recent attack on Lemmy servers with CSAM made server admins to completely turn off the image upload. That could also be the case here.
