Frequently asked questions

Will my image look the same on mobile and desktop?
Yes. 16:9 is the in-feed standard across both platforms — no surprise crops.
Is there a higher resolution I should use?
X re-encodes images server-side at around 4096px on the long edge. 1600×900 is the sweet spot for clarity without bloating file size.
What's the file-size limit?
X accepts images up to 5 MB. A 1600×900 JPG is typically 200–500 KB.
